For a number of reasons, I seem to have lost my voice on this blog and am seriously considering deleting it or simply stopping here. I'm going to give myself a week to figure it out.

A warm place to gather to discuss art, animals, roses, gardens and gardening, life, and, to laugh of course. I'm long winded. My sisters and friends often say "Can you just get to the point?!" There's a famous 17th Century quote I adore that reads "I have made this longer only because I could not find the words to make it shorter."

suze,
you might have other things going on, you might have lost your voice, you might be a bit down but none of that is reason to delete your blog!!!
just let it sit, it's part of your life, it's a creative work and even if you dont blog you will value the ability to come back to it, to read and remember.
and all that is before i even consider telling you
WE ALL WANT YOU HERE !!
lots of love

Suze,
You have to do what you think is best, although totally deleting the blog would be such a shame and a waste of all the time and energy that you've put into it. Think about it, sweetie.
And to echo Special, we all want you here.
Love ya,
Peter x
Oh heartbreak, to meet you so recently and then lose contact. My dear friend, we all walk through valleys full of shadow when we feel lonely and alone.
Though we fear we have nothing to contribute, we have no way of knowing what chance passing soul may hear us gently singing to ourself and find nourishment therein. To delete your blog would be to erase your pathway to here, something I find so sad. I hope your blog remains at least for a while. (I better get reading!) I surely understand that you may feel the need to pull back, cocoon, and renew (I have done that myself in other areas of my life and it felt WONDERFUL). If you do leave for a time, I hope you will look me up whenever you find yourself floating in blogdom again. I'll be here, Lord willing, waiting with a cuppa tea to toast this whole virtual bloggy thing that somehow knits hearts together. I can't quite define it ... but it makes me smile. I've so enjoyed blogging with you and meeting some of your other blogger friends. Pause, heal, love, live, and never, never stop dancing. : )
I am so glad to hear you are not going to delete and I hope things smooth out for you soon.
Hey Suzanne!
OMG! I'm glad to hear that you're NOT going to delete this blog!! I thought I was going to have a heart attack when I read that. What ARE you thinking?? Just take a break...don't delete!!! Your voice will come back. And even if it doesn't, we'd all cry if you deleted this beautiful blog!!!!
Thanks for all the sweet and funny comments on my trip chronicles. I'm sorry I've been remiss on commenting back...I've been trying to get caught back up with life! ACK!!! I go away for a few days and the ants take over our house! I hate ants INSIDE. They don't bother me OUTSIDE where they belong!
I love you and hope you are doing well, baby!
XOXOXOXOXO

G'day Suzanne,
I am so pleased to hear that you are going to stay. It just wouldn't be the same without you.
Even a Post from you once every few weeks or so will be worth waiting for :)
Cheers and beers,
Mark (kooka)
WOW!~
WTF?! I come back and hear that this site might be shut down...didn't read the FINE print at the point?! THANK GOD! Suze...you wouldn't do that to me to us! That would be like 1pic. Devastating! Ok...ok...enough drama from me. Just now that I DEMAND that you can NEVER shut this site down! EVER!
The good news...I have a surprise for you on my blog! Go take a peek!
Hugs,
Robyn
P.S. I am so very sorry about some of the ferals and skunks not making it. It breaks my heart! And that guy was just a perv...or he thought the woman's bathroom was cleaner...lol!
Hey Honey,
I'm with Peter when he says you have to do for you, not us. However, even if you don't feel like writing, you can always post a photo to share as your babies and your roses are most beautiful.
It's always good to hear from you; you leave some of the best comments!
Much love and lots of hugs,
Marn
Okay, good, no deleting, don't worry about voice! Your voice is so strong it doesn't matter whether you're feeling it or not, it's still there!!! I swear!
Blogging can be very emotional, mostly in a good way, but it can certainly have its dips and sags. Keeping a public journal is a major challenge. Look at me, my last few posts have been about spankings and red nail polish!! Also weeping over music! I think it's great for us intense folk ( ahem, we know who we are) to use blogging as an exercise, and let's call the exercise "roll with it." Ha ha, Suzanne, I've never just rolled with anything in my life! This is a first!!!!!
Anyway, I'm not sure I know what I'm talking about but I'm talking anyway!
And, don't feel you need to post all the time (I'm repeating what others said)--just whenever the mood strikes! I love coming here and seeing the beautiful pinks and roses and cats and just hearing anything you want to tell us about!
xoxo
Oh, and p.s. Love and kisses and a big hug.
Suzanne... I have something for you on my blog... come get it!
Peace and love!
What's going on with you? Do I need to call you later in the week and talk it out? I'm glad you won't delete your blog. That is just silly talk. Nice going with bicycle boy, and you are WAY COOL, pink baseball cap and all. Love ya,more.

Hi Suzanne,
First this is my first visit and quite a dramatic first visit it has been. You seem to have a very tender heart that just needs a little tending and mending. I understand your initial impulse to quit in sight of the sadness but this blog can be a great healing tool. Glad to hear you are going to reconsider.
Take Care,
Lisa & Alfie
NOOOOOOO, !!!!! never think in this way.
I wanted to delete and stop blogging few times, but thanks god I didn't.
Thanks for update news - you won't delete.
You are very important, very lovely blogger friends. I couldn't imagine Blogvillage without you.
Love and hugsss!
Sweetie,

Hi Suzanne!!!!
Just missed you so I wanted to send you warm wishes and (((HUGS)))!!! HEY, I was wondering if you'd feel comfortable sending me your email address. I'm not a stalker or anything, I just wanted to send you something special. If so, send me an email to: me.random.chick@gmail.com. If not, that's okay. I won't take it the wrong way. Really.
I just saw something the other day that made me think of you and I wanted to send it to you...
Hope your day is as beautiful as you are!
Muwah!!!

Ok fisrt, very nice roses.
I like plants and have a houseful also some roses in the front of the house but no where as nice as yours.
Secondly, cute cat, I had one like it called Marmalade.
She ran off with the circus when it came through so now I have a black and white cat whose to lazy to run let alone away.
I hope you find your voice but maybe you didn't really loose it but need to adjust a little.
I did.
Once I was shy and reserved, scared to say things I wanted to but one day by golly gee if I didn't open up.
OK Blottie I'm back...
Enough of this blog deleting talk. Do you hear me missy? I will not stand for you disappearing on me.
OK, only 135 more blog posts to read. See ya Blottie... Bob
Thank you very much Suzanne!
Love

Yo! Just dropping in to say Yo! There I said it. Goodbye.
I love your office...lovely photos. You have such an eye for loveliness.
Blog when you can, and when you can't don't.
We will all keep checking back when we can.
No worries, friends give friends space.
Hi Suzanne,
It's a great office. The blooms are HUGE. Best of all is a happy, sleepy kitty for companionship.
Best wishes,
Skeeter

Along the way I will pick up Cece, Bindi, Leah...R.C., Zach and just Bob are already there, then we just need to get Kylie and Kooka,and family...plus don't forget Peter, and Skeeter, the list justs keeps getting longer!!

Hello Suzanne. (Yep. That's it ^-^)
have a splendiferous weekend suze!!
Hugs, kisses, and don't be surprised if I cave and go get that dog from the adoption booth this weekend.....I know, "sucker" in large black letters across my forehead. I'll try to be strong, it's a "no kill" shelter.
Sweetie/Blottie,

Have a fantasmagorical week-end :)
(with apologies to kylie}
PHEW! I came on here today for the first time in *ages* and I saw you wanted to close your blog and I'm so glad the others have talked you out of it!
If you have nothing to say, then speak in pictures! I love your pictures!
I'm sooo glad you haven't stopped or deleted your blog.
Nice to be back :)
Hi Suzanne,
How's it going? Hope all is well. Talk with you later.
Best wishes,
Skeeter
Hi Suze,

Love ya sweetie,
Peter xx
Just swung by to say hello and wish you a beautiful day.
Big hugs
Marn
To all of you, thank you.
What you said matters.
XO Suze
Dearest Suzanne,
Here in the Sooner Nation, we are counting down the days till the start of the football season (re: the best time of year). We've had our Big 12 Conference Media Day and all is well in the Big Red center of the country. Hope to win over a few more fans to the Sooners cause from the great state of California.
I bit the bullet and posted an amends at Leah's for the misspelling. Hopefully, all is well.
Best wishes and Love,
Skeeter
Hi Girlfriend,
I loved seeing your "voice" over at W&R. Hope you are relaxing with a good read, stroking those fine kitties, and wending your way down the path to peace and beauty. I have over-blogged of late and am seriously needing to reorganize/refresh. I shall still blog, but it has to be FUN and burden-free. Like a soaring bird, I must let the updraft carry me wherever God leads. So fly by when you can and I shall soar over your way to see what's up. Happy Sunday Wonder. : )
How are you dear Suzanne?
Have a beautuful, happy, healthy days!
So are you finally taking that much needed break from blogging? I hope so. But just know that we miss you and cannot wait until you are back in rare form. Just don't stay gone during your birthday. We would never forgive you for that. No Way.
Hello Suzanne...
Thanks for your very sweet and supportive comments on my blog. I've been in a funk myself. Maybe all of us "funky" people should get together and pull ourselves up by our asses?
Anyway, I miss you and it was sooo good to hear from you. My prayers are with you!!!
XO

Boy, I just keep wrackin' um up, don't I. I be right here girlie! I will have to comment soon. And yes, I will.
XO to all, and thank you.
Suze! Where you be girly! Come out and come out and say hello to me! You know I am craving a Suze fix!
Hugs,
Robyn
