It's always disappointing when someone ups and leaves especially if you didn't see it coming or know the reason why. I have tried to give it up a few times but always find myself getting itchy fingers after a while.
People do what they need to do--sometimes for reasons we get to know.....sometimes we don't get the privilege of knowing. I simply try to trust it's what's best for them.
Quite a few of my favorites have left recently. It makes me very sad but I have to temper it with the fact that they let me into their lives for a while and hopefully they will be happy for the rest of theirs.
Trixie is alive and kicking...not sure about the name though..lol...and if I disappear it won't be long I will soon crop up again somewhere else no fear!!!xx
Giggle I am sure that by now you have either spoken to her or read what she says on the subject. It is sad that she has had to close down so suddenly after all this time. We have been reading each other for about 18 months now.
ron the strange thing about this one is that when I commented last week about another of our friends closing her blog Vi said that we will still be around for a long time yet.....but a week later!!
Vincent I am glad you are still here. I too don't often comment on yours but I do read regularly. I find other comments so deep that mine appear so shallow. However I do think of you in times when I need inspiration and trust. I hope that makes sense to you.
Gypsy I didn't see this one coming but I do know the reason and can quite understand. I have had periods when I have not blogged much which was the case from November until about March but I am almost back to my daily blogging but I doubt I will ever be as prolificj as I was last summer posting at least once a day on 3 blogs.
nitebyrd I guess I am lucky that all these blogging friends have become friends outside the blogospere so although the blog is gone the friendship remains
i got lambasted by an anonymous who was commenting on someone else's blog because we really should respect our (and others, his he means) privacy, and then proceeded to address the blogger by first name! it's people like that we really want to avoid.
but as vi said in her last post - she was shocked to discover that someone she knows in real life told her that they read her blog. it can be a tad uncomfortable i guess if you've been saying things about them you didn't want them to know about!
Mei I am sure Vi can remember when I had to start a new blog just because I found out that N had been reading my blog and didn't like what I had said about him...he was threatening all sorts I have had to go private a couple of times but hate it

I know!!!
I'm in shock!!!
I haven't spoken to her yet!
I don't know whats going on!!! xx
No worries, Lady...Vent will be in blogland for a loooong time!
This happens sometimes. I've seen quite a few of the bloggers that I've blogged with leave. And then some of them eventually come back.
I think people sometimes get weary of blogging, but then find that they miss it.
That's why I take a short break now and then...to refresh!
Enjoy your day!
O, some of us are here for the long haul, Lady! Addicted for life.
I don't comment much on yours, but it too is addictive - it has that quality of suspense.

mel it seems to be all the more sad when 3 of my blog friends have closed their blogs in about 10 days.

emma yes I have been for a visit but not commented yet. It will take a little getting used to.
