I’ve been doing a lot of thinking about this blog, where I want to go with it, and whether I even want to keep writing it at all. For quite a while, it had gotten to the point that I just dreaded sitting down and trying to do a blog entry, and I didn’t want to keep it up like that.

I think the long hiatus was good for me, if not for the blog and my readership. I do want to continue writing here, but I want to have a broader view than before.

I really considered just starting another site and redirecting. I’m not crazy about  the domain name, and I doubt that will change. However, I know this site has readers, and I hesitate to just jump ship and expect everyone to follow me elsewhere. So, here we are, and here we’re staying.

Yes, I’m going to still talk about my struggles with losing weight and our (my husband’s and mine) struggles with his diabetes. No, the blog won’t focus so exclusively on those subjects any longer.

One thing I hope to do is make the blog a little more personal. I avoided that at first. I think I was uncomfortable in the beginning with exposing so much of myself right away. I’m feeling better about that now, so the tone there will change too.

I hope you stick around and keep reading. I’m excited about this blog again, and I’m really happy about that.

My husband has his retina specialist appointment tomorrow, so wish us luck. I’ll be sure to post about how things go.
