Some of you may have noticed my recent lack of presence. It has been a particularly difficult few months for our family dealing with 4 deaths in a matter of weeks. I have taken a few months break from reading and reviewing, I just haven’t been able to concentrate. But I will be back…I think.
At the moment we are on short caravaning holiday – a time to refresh and regroup.
What a difference a day makes- The Porongurup Range – Great Southern Region of Western Australia.
Big thanks to Brenda for providing content to keep the blog running.
Reading, Writing and Riesling 
Enjoy Carol – yes, it has been a tough time for you. It is so very lovely over there, it inspired me to write fictional ‘Chalk Hill’ in the foothills of the Porongurups.
Well fancy that Lily! I love the way the clouds float over the ranges. Cheers to better times ahead.
Oh Carol, that’s so sad for you and your family. I hope your break will help with your healing and you find your way back to a form of normality.
Thanks Janine
How awful for you Carol. This has indeed been a very sad year so far. Losses are always tough to deal with but most don’t have to deal with multiple passings at the same time.
We also lost 2 very close friends last month, their deaths came just one day apart. One tends to reflect on what really is important.
Taking a trip is a good way to begin the healing process.
Wishing you and your family peace.
Thank you Anne – and the same to you. Looking forward to better times ahead.
Sending good thoughts your way! Hopefully your travels will give you some time to rest and find balance.
Thanks Sarah
Take all the time away you need Carol, your blog and books will be there for you when you’re ready. The important thing is to look after yourself in your grief, and your little trip away sounds like balm for the soul.
Thanks Tracey – it’s good to be able to slow things down and to appreciate the positives
So sorry to hear what a tough time you’ve been going through. Enjoy your break – I hope it gives you the space you need to begin to recuperate.
Thanks Leah
