All good things come to an end.

Yep, I'm closing shop.

This year has been a series of twists and turns, and not just because of the wedding. I know it's one of those years I'll look back on and say, "that's when everything changed."

As for my blog, I'm just finding that what I want to put out there has changed, and I'm not sure I'm ready to do that publicly yet. I am planning to start a very different blog probably next year-ish, but until then I just need this time to think and adjust to all of the new stuff that's going on in my life.

The only reason it took me so long to come to this decision (because it wasn't easy, believe me!) was because I was sad about the idea of not interacting with you guys anymore. I promise I'll still pop in to say hi every now and then on your blogs, but my own will be closed to the public very soon (I'll leave it up a little longer to make sure everyone sees this first).

You guys, it's truly been a slice. You're wonderful, creative, hilarious, and courageous, and I want to thank you for every bit of encouragement and support you gave me along the way. I've had a really fun time putting my stories and thoughts out there, but I've enjoyed talking to you guys most of all. You're the best!

How timely - your blog began on the 30th, and ends on the 30th.

You will be missed. I have always looked forward to your posts.

Go! Live! Attack your dreams and conquer the world. It's be a pleasure being a part of it for the short while I have.

Take care of you.

I have to admit that this makes me a bit sad. We go back a long way, you and I...
