Thanks for ALL your wonderful comments and support. I have enjoyed reading them. I have enjoyed following your blogs as well.
The purpose of this blog was ONLY for a personal journal of my attempt at running and personal fitness. Since then it is has morphed into many other things at times.
One thing that has surprised me was the Social Network aspect. Never thought anyone would actually read my babblings for one, like them and want to live a social life with me through commentary's. It has been kinda fun.
However, as I continue to do my blog and follow all of them - I am getting a tad burned out on the Social Network side of it all. Good Lord I am not saying I am an anti - social cave dweller or want to be one now. Hardly at all. Let me put it this way -
My best friend in real life, not cyber world social networking, just finally told me his marriage of 14 years is ending last week. Trust me this has been a very sad thing for me. I know both of them really well and they have a beautiful girl. The thing is I knew something was going bad several months ago, but did not follow up on ALL the hints and messages he had been sending me. He finally, sent me any email spelling it all out, then a long phone call after. It was a gut check moment last week after getting off the phone with him. Gut check in reality.
Anyway, the blogging has been fun. Yet, it is time for me to give it up for awhile. I have been neglecting things. REAL things that are REALly important and need a REALly high priority. Blogging seems a distraction and not a helpful one these days.
Thanks again for all your friendships. I will check in on ya now and then. Till then take care!
ALL my best!
B WHO U B!
Cheers!

I completely understand, you have to live your life, your real life. As great as blogging is it can distract from REAL life and REAL friendship. Best of luck to you and your friend.
We'll miss you. But I definitely respect and understand where you're coming from.
I know you've been feeling like this for a while and I completely respect your need to put your family and life first. It makes total sense.
I wish you well and best regards to your friend, it must be a very difficult time for everyone.
Keep in touch, hopefully Carlsbad?
Amen to that. Awesome perspective. We'll miss you, but I'm sure I'm not alone in saying we wish you the best! :)
Blogging can take big chunks out of one's life. Good you have your priorities straight.
Sorry to hear about your friend. A few years ago our neighbors, one would think a perfect family, ended their relationship. It was a big shock for us especially that we often used them as an example what a good marriage ought to look like. For us it was a big lesson on not taking things for granted.
Take care. I am going to miss your posts.
Just wanted to say thanks for stopping by my blog:) I really hope things get better for you soon!
Follow your heart friend!
Take care of yourself and I hope you can be there for your friend.
