Dear Friends,
At this time of year, as is my custom, I hibernate: a complete shutdown. However, as I have just renewed my WordPress for another year—I will soon start up year three of growingupsideways.blog with a change of heart and a new beginning…an empty journal and a pack of sharp pencils.
To all dear friends across the oceans and in all corners of the world—my love and gratitude for you allowing me and my thoughts into your life. Thank you for visiting; thank you for reading. And as always—thank you for sharing your thoughts and kind words of encouragement here with me! I am humbled and deeply touched by the kindness of bloggers. You inspire me in so many ways!
See you soon!
Nina 😊

Nina, thanks for sharing so much here. I will be looking forward to catching up as you fill that journal. I took a bit of a hiatus myself . . . needed to recharge some neglected batteries.

It’s like that isn’t it? A game of hide and seek?
