Alone For The Holidays

I've started the laborious task of re-posting as many of the retrieved posts from my former blog as I can. It is going to take me awhile but I'm committed.

While doing this, I realized something. I can not re-create all the wonderful comments that have been left on my blog over the past year. Comments that have made me laugh. Comments that have made me cry. Words strung together that taught me I was a part of something greater than myself.

Community. This is what I've lost. And, it feels like a small death. That must be why I awoke on my favorite of holidays, Christmas Eve, and I was sad.

Today is a day to celebrate family and I feel as though I have lost the one I spent a year building in the blogsphere.

Come back to me my lovely readers. I promise I will never delete you again.

I found your comment on Latte Mommy's site and it piqued my interest, so I came over to see you. What's the story? I think perhaps I am missing something? Very, very curious...

So glad to see you again.
And I understand that people reading your stuff and wanting to use it against you just sucks.

I'll visit you in your new blog house as frequently as I did in your old one.

I'll bring the cookies.

I believe I know who you are... certainly not ordinary. If so, I'm very glad to see you!!!! I'm sorry you felt pressured to make this move. It's not right.

Merry Christmas. Don't be sad - you'll have plenty of beautiful comments to come, I'm sure...

Hello and Merry Christmas. Thanks for dropping by and letting me know where to find you again.

I'm sorry you were pushed out of your old diggs, but I understand and I am glad the you have found a new place to be authentic. That is what I like best about you.

I've never commented before but I've been reading your blog for over a year. I don't even remember how I first came across it, but I enjoy reading what you have to say every morning. I was so shocked this morning when I clicked on the bookmark and your other blog was gone! Well, I did some strategic "googling" and found you here. I'm so glad you're going to keep blogging! You have some interesting perspectives on things.
