I have been taking some time off here, some very much needed time off. I’m single, home school my ten year old, have a toddler grandson and another grandchild on the way and work full-time. Then there’s the writing and music that I want to do, but have essentially, last year, put aside. I want my efforts to go where they are most needed and most helpful.

I’m thinking about making some major changes. It’s become increasingly clear I have too many blogs and social networks, and need to close down some of them and consolidate others.

For a number of reasons, I’m taking a short leave from work for the next couple of weeks. There’s a bullying situation there that has increased the stress and has been a drain on my energy. I need a break and need to reassess what I’m going to do there, as well.

When I come back, I’ll be able to let you know what will happen next here. But in all likelihood, I will be making this a podcast blog on relational aggression as I’ve always wanted and move my articles on bullying to my personal blog and discussion to the forum.

Hope you are all doing well.
