"Conversation should be pleasant without scurrility, witty without affectation, free without indecency, learned without conceitedness, novel without falsehood."

So it turns out that JU has been one of the casualties of my hectic life. It seems that at the moment, time, just simply isn't on my side. The moment that I have some spare time, I am getting pulled in so many different directions, it is impossible for me to keep everybody happy, and find time to do things for myself. So as I have attempted to keep everyone happy, I have succeeded in keeping no one happy, and that includes myself. I know that I have full control of what I do with my time, but because there is so little of it going spare at the moment, it is becoming more and more impossible to put my all into things, and I don't see the point in only half doing things. So at the moment, lots of things are getting left not done. Which isn't good. So folks we are embarking on a comeback mission, and JU is the starting place.

I miss blogging, and I miss the interaction. Which is why I am here. Now I am not saying that I am going to be back completely, because I would be lying. However I am going to try and put some time aside, so that I can spend it just chilling out here, sharing my thoughts, and interacting with the wonderful folks of JU a little more. Even when it appears that I have stopped blogging for a while, I still pop on here from time to time, to keep up with what the wonderful folks of JU are upto. I just don't comment. Commenting has never been one of my strongest areas in blogging. There is something comforting about coming on here at night, when I am all tired and reading blogs people have wrote, and basically keeping up with what they are doing. I like that.

I am not suited to a busy life. I don't think I ever will be. I am the kind of chick that enjoys lazy days, where I don't even get dressed, lazing in my PJ's around the house. Just reading and writing, and basically not doing anything to taxing. *sigh* I miss those days. Don't get me wrong, I do enjoy doing things, and getting things done, and time flying by, so you wonder where you day has gone. I just also like to have time to myself, and time to relax, and time to actually enjoy life, and at the moment I am failing to find the balance for all that, but I am working on it. So maybe we will be making progress with that sometime soon. I guess we can judge it from my participation in blogging. Here's hoping I get better at juggling.

I miss you JU.

Drop in whenever you get a minute. I enjoy reading you even if you can't get on every day. I myself go through JU phases. Sometimes I'm on all the time. Sometimes I don't get on for a while. Sometimes I comment on other blogs but don't write any myself. Sometimes I write all the time. It's always still here whenever I miss it.

I know how you feel Sally. Life can be a bit overwhelming at times. I haven't posted as much as i would like either. Between work, my girlfriend and family, playing in a band, working on my car, and trying to relax a bit...JU was pushed to the side.

I guess it's like anything else in life. You have to make time for it.

Glad to see you back. Pop in anytime.  We will still be the same old quarrelling arguing bunch.

I haven't been here too often, either lately. that seems to be my lot in life. (It seems to be happening to a lot of us . . . )

But - just so you know, I started a real letter to you yesterday! And I'll finish it up today or tomorrow and get it in the mail. Promise.

Hey, Sally, you know what they say: if you having problems juggling, get rid of some of your balls

Like you, I've been very busy moving house and at work. This time of the year is always busy for me at work and the first thing to suffer is my blogging. I've got heaps of ideas but just can't find the time to write them. All this is about to change, I hope, as we've recently got a lovely new laptop and are waiting for ADSL to be connected at home. This means I'll be able to spend more time talking to all my friends here. YAY...
