Well, I feel the same way ALL the time. I was posting like crazy before Christmas because I had so much to share. Not so much now.

I have decided I will post what and when I want..I like blogging and if a few others like then great! If not, I still have fun!! Continued prayers for your grandson!

Our daughter, who is an AE for a top television station, did not get it from me but from her father, and from my father. <br /><br />As the commenters above said, We are never disappointed in your posts! Nevah! We just miss you when you're absent but know that you have had much on your mind and on your hands with little Cooper and his sisters. Your Valentine's table is just what I needed to see and I'm sure it will be all over Pinterest today. I love that it is set by the Quimper (did I spell that right?), as they are such romantic dishes. I want a Valentine's tree now!<br />Love you,<br />DewenaDewenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07330797553600987145noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8702816552340511485.post-89698545143779986092013-01-17T08:57:35.132-06:002013-01-17T08:57:35.132-06:00Hi Laurie, as far as I can remember you HAVE NEVER...Hi Laurie, as far as I can remember you HAVE NEVER disappointed us with your amazing posts and great ideas.

I think he must have been singing about yours!!! What a cute idea! I'm almost never quite ready to abandon the glorious color and pageantry of Christmas decor, so this seems like a great way to extend the glamour of it all just a little bit longer in a unique & romantic way. I feel you on "hitting a wall." I hit it a couple of times a year. I just take a break and then come back when I feel refreshed. I've been on a break for several weeks now. It has given me a chance to take down my Christmas stuff, get a little rest, do some stuff I've been putting off....it's a good thing! I don't think blogging should be a chore. If you don't feel like posting every week, don't! I know it's hard for me to just do tables for the heck of doing them. I have to be truly inspired. Hang in there, young lady, and I'll see you for sure at your Valentine's party. I might actually be inspired to do a table by then! :-)Alycia Nicholshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14690591304562176674noreply@blogger.com
