Life is always moving and if we’re lucky we’re lulled into a routine where we see life changes coming and we have time to make plans and react. Unfortunately events sometimes seem to arrive as a bolt from the blue and everything is suddenly different. Ivy is taking an indefinite leave of absence to deal with events in her personal life. If you’d like to send her your thoughts, I will certainly pass them along.
What does this mean for us here at Home Ec 101? For the moment I’m putting out a call for guest authors. Our format might change temporarily, but I’m hoping to stay true to the community, vision, and tone of this site.
I recently described our site as a place where real* people share real skills as they apply to our real lives.
*Real is just my way of saying imperfect and occasionally messy.
How true that can be, here’s to the future.
Ivy, my thoughts are with you and you will be missed.
Heather, thanks for letting us know. Change is hard, but having a heads-up helps. I *really* enjoyed the guest post you had recently, and I can totally see that format working for this site. I know whatever you come up with will be awesome.
I love your site! Thanks for all your hard work.
Thank you for your encouragement. With all the time I’ve invested in this site I’m here for the long haul, even if I don’t know what that is, just yet.
