Because I lost my mind. Really. I think I left it at the grocery store. Or maybe it was Bed, Bath & Beyond. Maybe the dog ate it. Or maybe “the boy” saw it, decided to take it outside and now it is sitting in the sandbox.

Either way… I don’t know if you’ve noticed lately. But this blog sucks. I mean really. Not funny. Not interesting. Just sort of… blah. And I guess you’ve noticed I haven’t been visiting ya’ll as much either…

I’ve talked alot about my migraines (I have at least eight triggers) and sinus problems on this blog. If it weren’t for a two-hour bedtime ritual, air purifiers, allergen reducers, and the plethora of weird things I have to do/or not do, and lots of Benedryl for severe sinus and Tylenol PM, I’d be in constant pain. (Course there are times I do everything “right” and I’m still in pain!)

The last few months, I’ve been very, very tired — just so lethargic and unable to concentrate. I don’t want to do anything. Even blogging has started to feel like a chore. I’m tired of being tired. I wonder if I’m sliding into a depression. I’ve been there before. And it sucks. And I don’t want to find myself there ever again. (At the time, the depression was tied to my lagging thyroid, my continuous headaches and my slagging energy levels. Which, hey! Looks alot like what’s going on now.)

So I need to step back from the blogging and take better care of myself.

So I went to an ear, nose and throat guy recently. Monday morning is a cat scan. It’s not a big deal. Just trying to find out “what’s going on with Lisa’s sinuses.” I know I have alot of allergies. So I also need to get tested for that. From there, maybe we can figure out “What’s going on with Lisa’s head?”

After that, there will be fun little game called, “what’s going on with Lisa’s thyroid” as well as “what’s going on with Lisa’s lady parts?” And don’t forget, “what’s going on with Lisa’s stomach.” And hopefully by then the “why in the hell is Lisa so tired” mystery will be solved.

Oh and the other game I’ve still got to schedule is the one where I get naked and have a dermatologist look at every speckle and spot on my body. As one once told me, “With all of the time you’ve spent out in the sun, its not an ‘if’, Lisa. Its more of a ‘when’.” BAH!

So the point? I won’t be posting as often — save for a review or a singular post here and there. But hopefully this quasi-hiatus will prove to be a productive one. And I’ll returned invigorated — with a fresh, optimistic perspective and ready to read your brilliant posts.

Make no mistake — I’ll be thinking of you all. You are all in my heart. I can’t imagine living life any other way.
