Back from the dead…
If there is anyone out there that is still reading this blog and a witness that Scibbles & Musings is back from the dead…THANK YOU!!
I’m so sorry…it’s been awhile…
Like 6 months or so to be somewhat exact…since I’ve last posted…but that doesn’t mean I haven’t been thinking about the blog. Or all my once, loyal readers who must think that either I am dead…or at the very least that the blog is dead.
But alas, the blog (and I) live!!
Hip Hip Hooray!!
The last six months or so…
What can I say? Life has been busy!
Besides that whole working thing…which I do in order to live (of course!) and to keep my furry, feathered and scaly kids fed and supplied with all they need in order to enjoy their pampered little lives to the fullest….
Last summer, I enrolled in a 200-hour yoga teacher training program that began in September 2017, which took up lots and lots of my spare time for the past nine months. It was an amazing journey filled with tons of yogi things to learn, friendships to be made and boundaries to be tested. Such a fantastic adventure! We just graduated earlier this month! And I am still enjoying the excitement of finishing the program and enjoying the yoga friendships that were formed during the entire journey. So much fun and so much knowledge hold on to and continue to build upon and share with others!
That is really my biggest excuse of why I have been MIA from the blogging scene.
What else?
While I have been MIA, I have been thinking about what I want to do with my blog.
You might not believe this after my disappearance act, but I do really love my blog! But I have felt that it needs more focus and more of a direction.
When I originally started this blog back in 2015, it was because I had heard about this thing called “WordPress” and wanted to find what it was all about and how to use it (I know, total dork!). Hence, Scribbles & Musings was born.
But the desire to learn a blogging platform doesn’t necessarily translate well to knowing what to write about once I figure out said blogging platform. Consequently, it is probably the biggest contributing factor as to why my blogging focus and direction could use some (ok…lots of) help!
Because the blog has been on my mind (even when I wasn’t writing), I couldn’t help but notice when I saw something about a blogging bootcamp on Facebook earlier in the year, so I signed up for it!
The problem is that I ‘accidentally‘ started a new blog during that bootcamp!? Cause ya know, I have been doing so good with this one?!?!?
I hear you thinking…
I hear your thoughts, dear reader!! (loud and deafening, actually!)
How the heck are you going to manage two blogs when you haven’t written anything over here in more than six months?!?!
Might I say, this is a very good questions!!
And the answer is, I am not really sure… (you probably expected that, huh?)
But starting this second blog does clear up a little confusion with this blog. It eliminates one of the blog topics from here that I thought deserved it’s own dedicated space.
You may be wondering by now what the other blog is…
The new blog is Tech Girl Help Desk. It’s focus will be on helping the technically challenged among us. It allows my inner geek to shine and lets me share my love for all things techy. And just maybe, I can help out some others who are not gifted with a tech savvy gene. (p.s. I would love to have you all come over and check out Tech Girl!!)
Back to Scribbles & Musings…
In the face of this blog’s resurrection, I think it is only fitting that Scribbles & Musings gets a makeover!!
Which of course, makes my inner geek giddy with anticipation! A new theme! New colors to play with! And new graphics to be made! Oh my!!

Hi,
I’m glad it’s not only me who disappears for a while. A full year for my part.I just got back a couple of weeks ago.
And by the way, since one of your interests is photography, maybe you are interested in my new YouTube channel? There’s a link to it in my latest post.
I do hope you’re bringing back favfotofriday. 😀
I did really love favfotofriday…it is on the list to continue…I think I will be doing a whole blog overhaul…but I enjoyed that so hopefully I can make that work again 🙂 Thanks for adding a vote for favfotofridays!
