It’s Me Again, Margaret

Hey!!! Remember me? Crazy lady with anxiety, a weird husband, and even weirder kid? Yeah, well I’m baaaackkkk. I’ve been around, just not here and I’m sorry for that. It’s the slacker in me.

If you know me well, then you know that I get burnt out sometimes. I get slack in friendships, in commitments, in hobbies, and really just life all around. It’s not a good thing, I just fizzle out easy. One minute I’m hotter than a firecracker, and the next I’m the leftover coffee in the pot. I guess the positive to this is that I’m always still there, just takes me a while to get back going good again.

I have to give some credit to my little sister, Miranda. (I don’t do this often lol) She’s kind of lit a fire under my butt lately. Convicted me to do better and try harder. When I started this blog last year, I was on fire for it. I wanted everyone to know that no matter your struggles with anxiety, mental health, or what else have you, that you had someone in your corner, writing these little blurbs about real life… you know, someone who gets it. I wanted to share my faith and how I got through some of the darkest times of my life. I wanted to make people laugh and relate to some of the “strange” moments in my life. It was going really well, then I started feeling like I wasn’t getting as much feedback, and I didn’t know if what I was saying was really relevant anymore.

Guess what? It doesn’t matter if it’s relevant to everyone or if you do or don’t relate. I don’t have to reach every person in this world or even this side of Gaston County. The point is, it’s helped me to write it and put it out there, and I know that it’s helped a handful of you guys too. And THAT was all I ever wanted to do anyway.

So, I’m back. Like it, love it, or leave it. I’m trying a little harder this go ‘round in hopes to bring this little blog back to life.

Love ya’ll!
