Relationship Notes

by JM

I read somewhere that you shouldn’t apologize on your blog if you have an absence, but I think that’s a bit strange. A tad rude, too, but mostly strange.

So I’ll do as I like on my blogs, yes?

As you may have noticed, I took a small break from this (and my other) sites. I needed to take some time away from the computer for not only a mental break but to rearrange furniture and clean. The man and I now have little office spaces set up in the lounge and I’m finally writing at a desk again!

I’ll catch up with the Love Questions and we’ll have another Friday Free-for-All. Now that you’ve been warned, you have to stop by and say hello to your fellow LR readers.

I recently (as in, a few hours ago) got into a little discussion about relationships with a significant age gap between the two partners. He (the friend) will actually be interviewing my husband and me later this week on the subject.

Age gaps in relationships is a topic I would like to explore here, but before I do that, I’d like to know if any of the readers here have a significant age gap in your relationships. If you do, I’d love to hear from you. Either email me or leave a comment here if you’d like to talk.

Also, I’m looking for people to cover for me with guest posts while I’m away in the beginning of October. (The way things are looking at the moment, I’ll never get ahead enough to write posts to cover those days.) If you are interested in helping me out – even if you don’t have any post ideas, you can still email me and let me know.

What’s in it for you? Well, I will link all your posts to your website(s) so people will know where to find more of your writing.

I also might just have a little gift of appreciation for all guest posters as well…

That’s it for today. I hope you all have an excellent start of the week.
