Hello?
Tap. Tap.
Is anyone in there still? Hello?
Oh look. There you are. You haven’t disappeared after all.
The cursor has been mocking me here for days now, little shouts of ‘you can’t write anything, ner ner’ and ‘look at you, looking at me. Go and do something useful already’.
I should have learned to not listen to a blinking cursor by now. Especially a blinking cursor that spends it’s days swimming in the shark tank that is the Interwebs.

There was an explosion.
BANG!
And suddenly everything was different. A mini earthquake triggered and the world beneath my feet rocked and things I took as given disappeared.
I am learning to be okay with this.
Change is not a bad thing. Change is merely change. I’m wearing my designer shoes and ignoring the breast flaunting happening in front of my eyes, as I move through a new world, shaped and moved by things beyond my comprehension.
You could say that life is different now.
Or maybe life was never going to be what I thought it was.
This is okay.
We are all going to be okay.

Boobquake? *blinks*
A metaphorical boobquake anyhow.
Even small earthquakes, even figurative ones, are unsettling at best and can be downright scary and/or damaging. Lots of hugs from here as you figure out the new way forward.
One foot and then another. It will be okay.
And thanks, I appreciate the support.
It’s amazing what we can get used to. How normal our life seems even when extraordinary things have happened/are happening.
You will be OK. You are OK.
Normality is not real anyway, surely? My normal is not your normal and yours is not the lady down the streets normal. It’s all relative.
I know I will be. x
Hi Veronica, TAP Tap you say, I heard it and be sure I’m there, Looking after your smiles and sadness . I’m not able to write like I want (my english will not be better and better, I’m sorry about but…) well, I think of you and you do well what you are doing. Bises Grit
Thank you Grit 🙂
Life never seems to turn out like we want it to, does it? I guess the peace comes with accepting that and being able to do what you can without thinking “what if…” all the time. *hugs* xx
My, I barely manage to find time to look at a blinking cursor anymore, let alone write, I’m back to wrote after 3years and a half raising my two. But still here keeping an eye on what’s up with you on the other side of the planet. take care
Your writing is so powerful V. It’s odd isn’t it, how ok we can end up being post The Event, whatever it may be. Thinking of you.
I like this.
You and are are the same but different lol – on the my normal is not your normal, everyones normals being different….
Your writing is simple yet profound because of its simplicity! Interesting approach!
Please drop by my blog to comment and follow if you can. We have a lot in common!

Hi Veronica
Thanks for joining me at Create With Joy! I explored all of your blogs this morning and loved your foodie one (the chicks were adorable!) but after reading this one, thought I’d park myself here for awhile. Several of the things you wrote resonated with me. I look forward to getting to know you and hope the ground beneath your feet stablilizes soon. Although, the earth seems to be rocking in a lot of lives right now!
Hang tight & have a fabulous week!
Ramona
