Gerri’s Blog

But never goodbye. As most of you already know, “real life” has gotten in the way of the blog…or is it the other way around? Regardless, I have so many projects going on—at work, at home, and with my writing—that I had to cut back somewhere. Unfortunately, the blog was one of the things that was selected to go.

First, let me say that it was a wonderful experience and it was so much fun getting to know you guys and watching as you grew comfortable with one another and made this little blog into a family. I appreciate that so much. I know most of you will keep in touch with each other as you have made life-long friends here, which is amazing, considering we are spread all over the world, and time zones, yet we still keep in touch.

Secondly, I want to thank Judy, the HP, for keeping me in line and trying to keep the rest of you in the gutter! Back in September, when I told her of my time constraints, she offered to take over the management of the blog. I appreciate what she did for keeping it up a little longer. I know most of you received her email explaining why she wasn’t able to devote time to it any longer as well.

I hope you will continue to email me and let me know what is going on in your lives. I’ve enjoyed meeting each and every one of you. Because of that, I’ve dedicated No Strings to the GGGs. When the book comes out in Spring 2009, I hope you’ll enjoy the dedication and find the reference to “the gutter gals” in the book! You were a great inspiration to me!

Thank you all for your time that you’ve given the blog this past year. You are all wonderful people. I feel honored to know you.

Farewell…
