When Life Gets In The Way

My intentions are good, have been good, yet I haven’t been able to bring myself to sit down and write for several months. Life can get messy and foul up the best of intentions. Would you agree? The post that went up this week I have been working on for months, or not. I’m embarrassed but hey, sometimes life gets in the way.
I mean, my Cuba vacation took place last summer. Yes, summer of 2019. Why did it take me so long to finish a post about one of the most important experiences in Cuba? Well, lets see. There was Community Table and a few posts I needed to write to help promote that event. Then there was a much needed mini vacation to Virginia with one of my bestest girlfriends. Coming home from that short trip I was met with more work at the spice shop than usual, some things around the house that needed my attention and then the holidays were bearing down.
Sound like a bunch of excuses? Okay, those are excuses but they are valid in my opinion. I felt bogged down and stuck. No creativity at all. Writer’s block, perhaps. I’ve been working hard on journaling, focusing and finding my way back to The Orange Bee, because I love it. My heart has been in this blog for almost 9 years. I don’t pay the bills with it, I just enjoy it. What do you do when life gets in the way?
I am back. I’m going to do my best to share more about Cuba, Community Table and what’s on the books for 2020. If you are a reader of The Orange Bee thank you for sticking around through the good times and the not so good. I appreciate you and hope you’ll continue to subscribe and follow my adventures.
Before long bee adventures will be buzzing strong and I am about to embark on a super fun holiday that I will want to share with you. For now, I am going to begin writing another story about Cuba, which still feels close to my heart.
