The Vanishing act ( A life update)

There are times in life that we all wish we could runaway from our problems.
Some of us go on a vacation, and sometimes we just shut the world out and take refuge within ourselves.
After my last blog post, (all the way back in June 2017) , I got caught up in living, and had no time to catch my breath or even write a blog post.
Here is a life update.
Summer 2017
When kids stay home its like they are ALWAYS bored! I am constantly trying to figure out how to entertain them, and it becomes a full time job playing 'cruise director,' to my daughters.
My Uncle died. Which broke my heart and I found myself in a tail spin heading into depression. When you feel like that, its very hard to write or do much of anything.
Fall 2017
School started. My oldest daughter started 8th grade and my youngest little girl started pre-k. I got very busy being the room mom, and running my daughters to their dance classes.
My husband and I celebrated our 14 year wedding anniversary with a trip to CUBA! I will be planning a blog post all about Cuba soon. We went with our best friends and had the most incredible time.
Winter 2017
Then before I had a chance to take a break, I was off on another adventure to Europe! My in-laws took my husband and I on a Viking Cruise (Blog post coming soon)!
Then the Holidays! Christmas and New Years was a whirlwind of fun and busy times.
January 2018
THE FLU! That's right. Our whole family got it, just like half the country. There is a saying that 'you are nothing without your health,' and I have a new found testimony of that phrase. It lasted for about 3 weeks. Then it was time for my Birthday! Getting older is a fact of life, and I am so blessed to have such amazing family and friends that made my day so special.
NOW. Febuary is here and I can't believe how fast 2018 is flying by. I feel for the first time in a long time; that I am ready to write and share with you the best 'slices' of me.
The more I live life, the more I realize how alike we all really are. We all get overwhelmed, and find it hard to face the day. Yet, everyday (if we are lucky) we get out of bed, and have the chance to start all over again.
I am so sorry that I have not been here for you. I am working hard on some very cool blog posts that, I hope, will inspire you and bring a smile to your face.
The best is yet to come...
Love, Sem xoxo
