To whom it may concern

I haven't fallen off the face of the earth.

I just realized that the only whom to whom it may be of concern is probably me.

You're not all out there hanging on my every word.

You're not all waiting with 'bated breath, impatiently drumming your fingers for more, more, more.

Message received and understood.

Lesson learned.

"O wad som Pow'r the giftie gie us, to see oursels as ithers see us."

Robert Burns.

I now return, slightly older and slightly wiser, to the proverbial drawing board.

See you later.

    Seriously I enjoy your posts. So take your time and write when the muse hits you.

    1. Elephant's Child/Sue, you are gracious. Some posts do take longer than others, n'est-ce pas?

  5. I think my posts are even less frequent than yours and certainly less cerebral.
