How embarrassing! It’s been almost a year since my last blog. And what a year it’s been.
Without sharing the gory details over the internet, let’s just say that I’ve been to more funerals in the past 11 months than in the previous 44 years. Cancer, suicide, and plain bad luck have all taken their toll on friends and family members.
I guess it’s all part of growing up and growing old. Or at least middle-aged.
My plan to become a certified SEO Copywriter was (temporarily) shelved as I juggled a large corporate contract with hospital visits and my son’s competitive hockey schedule.
Exploratory coffee meetings were postponed while I managed the rebranding of Idlewyld Inn & Spa, including the launch of their new website.
Freelance ideas remained unpitched as a challenging project become even more of a burden when two partners dropped out leaving me to shoulder most of the grunt work.
But if I’m blogging today, it’s because that is all in the past – and life is starting to return to a (new) normal on both the personal and professional fronts.
I will not be sad to see the end of 2014. To quote Queen Elizabeth II, it was an ‘annus horribillus.’ But I am looking forward to getting back into the groove during 2015.
Top of my ‘to do’ list?
Updating my website…starting with this blog!
