After thirteen months of blogging for Where We Relax, I’m sorry to say that this is my last post. However, as regular readers of this blog will know, things have been going topsy-turvy in my life and I need to scale back on my work in order to get balanced again. This was a hard decision to make but in order to get more out of life, you do have to know when to let things go. I’m sure this blog’s administrator, John, has more writers lined up to keep Where We Relax going and help you manage your stress.
What’s Wrong?
Three things have lead me to this decision. First off, my migraines have worsened. I need to find out why I’m getting them more often. Secondly, my Mom’s health has worsened. I live with my Mom and am her caretaker and will need to devote more time to her care. And third, my Aunt (my Mom’s sister) has been diagnosed with breast cancer. Since she’s in her 80’s, prognosis for her is not good.
I could continue with this blog, but I wouldn’t be able to give it the attention to detail that you deserve. So I might as well bow out and make sure someone else gives you the attention you deserve.
So, What Have We Learned?
I hope that in these thirteen months of blog posts, you will have learned that stress is not an entirely evil thing, for in small doses stress can help you. Too much of anything is bad for you, even relaxation. Although you may not be able to control your circumstances, you are in complete control of how you react to those circumstances. That does make a big difference in your quality of life.
And I’ve hoped you’ve had a good laugh along the way.
As always, hope this helps.

Your writings are very informative . i like your blog a lot. It is very sad that you are going to stop blogging.
Hey, I just came here for the first time and am hit with this sad post
Many people I know who bailed out of blogging for various personal reasons ended up starting smaller more personal and less pressured blogs… writing when they feel like it is kind of like a therapy for them.
I hope you sort some things out and find the time to get back to blogging.

Sorry to hear that you are taking time off. I really do believe the yoga can help. It has powers that are hard to believe.
Он, so many bad things! I am very sorry! Take care!
Happy holidays and I hope things go better for you in 2009. Any plans to have someone else step in and start writing for you or do you plan to return soon?.
I enjoy reading your post. You’re such a good writer. But I was mad reading your first line “After thirteen months of blogging for Where We Relax, I’m sorry to say that this is my last post. ” ..Sorry to know about many bad things you’ve experiencing right now. Get well soon..
Take care of yourself.
♥Happy Holidayys.. ♥

Thanks for all the great information and enjoy your time off.
It’s been a while since I visited this site (been traveling on business), but what a shock to come back to! Thanks for all the info- it’s been a real life saver!
Is this blog done for good? I would love to see it come back. When will you post again?
Hope you enjoy the time off and come back to writing!
Hope you enjoy the time off - you’ve earned it!
Come back and write for us soon!
I completely agree, balance is the key to life. If you’re constantly working to secure your finances, when do you get a chance to play with your finances?
I hope you can finish writing this blog, I am interested to hear the story behind the inspiration.
Very sad to hear this. I learned and enjoyed a lot from your writing. I will pray for you sure.
Ah, I just found your blog and I found your posts very informative. Too bad you won’t be updating your blog anymore. Do you plan on keeping your blog or you will shut it down?
Hey, it’s too bad that you have stopped blogging. I like most of your posts, and I’ve enjoyed reading them. So I have the same question like “Acai Berry Supreme”. So I think you should keep your blog for public, so every time they visit it, they will remember all your good posts.
thanks for all of your usefull posts, and i hope everythings get better.
Please continue your posting. We really need it.
Hope to see you come back and blog again.
It’s another great way to relax…
Stress is not an entirely evil thing. As in life you need balance. Obviously being stress 24/7 will kill you. However a little bit here and there can do you good.
Excellent post
it’s really a sad news for me. Please keep posting. It will benefit many people.
That’s unfortunate to hear the bad news! Thanks for all the great posts over the past year, and good luck in the future!
Please keep posting.
Yeah, it’s really unfortunate.
good thoughts by all.
Thanks!
Please keep posting. All your posts were really great to read and totally helpful. I think I would share the same opinion with most of the commenters if I say that you should keep posting. There are so many people who like your blog. So please come back again.
