Why hello there strangers!
It is so nice to see all of you again!
Oh how I've missed you.
I never imagined that I would miss blogging as much as I have?!?
I know it has been awhile and I have dabbled with coming back before but this time I really mean it!
After a brief lay-off, long hours of working a not-so-swell job, a scary bout of pneumonia that landed me in the hospital and life in general I am finally ready to enter back into the world of blogging.
My how the blogging world has changed and grown since I've been gone.
Bloggers that I followed/befriend have gotten married, had babies, grown into HUGE blogging successes, and sadly, have even passed away. (you will be missed prissy green)
I have thought a lot about how I want to do this and I have decided that I want to stay "old school"
I first started this green blog because I was so excited about the journey that my family and I were embarking on. We were just learning what it meant to live a more eco-friendly lifestyle, discovering new products, learning about organic foods, entering into (what seemed like) a whole new world.
I started this blog because I wanted to share that world and my excitement about entering into it with others. I was hoping that maybe, just maybe, I could persuade others to take that journey with us.
As much as I would love lots of people to read my blog I just don't want to go down the road of sponsors, advertisements, contacts, etc. If this means that I have only a hand-full of readers then so be it. We will become a small close nit group of eco journeyers ;-)
With that said,when I find a product/company I love I will still do reviews and I will still gladly host give-a-ways (when I am fortunate enough to be asked to do so by wonderful eco companies!)
To all those readers who stuck around I would like to say Thank-You!
I will gladly 2nd that Thank You with an extra entry on the 1st 2 give-a-ways that I host.
Just leave a comment here or send me an e-mail. I would love to hear from you!
Now, back to our regularly scheduled eco-journey

welcome back!!! I'm glad you are healthy and happy- I was wondering where you had gone... and was sending positive vibes your way. :)
Thank you for the congrats on the wedding- I'm not sure if I even blogged about the name thing beyond that first time.... perhaps I should :) Wasn't sure if people were interested lol.
I agree with you 100% about staying 'old school'. I couldn't be bothered with the advertising and stuff. However I am having a hard time staying excited about the green movement... just with the overwhelming feeling of not being able to make a difference... I'm sure it will pass.
I needed to read this post- so thank you! :)
I'm glad you're back!
There are times when I think of giving up the blog, I mean, it's sometimes too much to handle. I'm not all that sure I'll continue once my next child is born--how will I find the time?
I'm looking forward to some "old school" blogging around here!
So glad you're back!
I found you looking for better candy choices and read back through everything and was so sad when you disappeared!!
Yay to being back!
Welcome back! I look forward to reading your posts again!
Lori
Ahh, you are all so sweet!
@eco: Thank you for the good vibes. I needed them and they seem to have worked ;-) I am very interested in the name thing so you are going to have to blog about it. I can't wait to read it!
@K You may have to take a bit of a hiatus too but you may find that blogging is a nice "me time" activity. I bet you can type one-handed while feeding the baby. ;-)
@B: Thank you and nice to hear from you. I hope you found some of my posts helpful. I look forward to getting to know you better.
@GG: Hello again! I have to catch up on your life too. I can't wait to see what you have been up to.
Thank you all for your welcome backs. It feels so nice.
So glad that you're back!
Thanks Lori! I'm glad to be back ;-)
