Hello reader friends.
Due to a combination of circumstances involving work, finances, health, and a much-needed vacation, I’ve decided to act like France and take a holiday from blogging for the entire month of August. I need to rest and take care of some personal issues so that I can continue writing this blog with the energy and enthusiasm I started with. It’s too important to me to give up entirely, so I hope I won’t lose any readers, but I need to rethink the direction and come back to it with a fresh perspective.
Look for me right after the Labor Day holiday, when I’ll be back from hiatus refreshed and rejuvenated, with more Thrifty Threads, Meatless Monday, CSA delivery, and Food Waste Friday posts, along with some new twists on the topics of non-consumerism and simple living. I've got so many posts in the works that I'm anxious to delve into. I’ll miss you, and I look forward to getting back to the conversation next month, when we’re all in more of a back-to-school mood.
Enjoy the rest of your summer. Don’t forget to take a nap in a hammock, eat an ice cream cone, sleep under the stars, play in the sprinklers, or stay outside until the sun goes down.
See you in September…
About Me
- Angela
- On January 1st, 2009, I joined The Compact and pledged to Buy Nothing New for one year. It sounded like the perfect way to converge my desire to live on less money with my interest in living a simpler life and trying to lessen my carbon footprint. The experiment was so rewarding that I'm continuing with it indefinitely. This blog documents my journey in non-consumerism.

I took a break too and let my friend write some posts. If I feel like I HAVE to write, it takes the joy out of it for me. I only wanna read if you wanna write. Have a nice break! I will be here when you get back.
Enjoy your summer!
The tone of your writing is contemplative and upbeat... can't wait to read your next blogs.
You've earned some time off Angela!
Looking forward to hearing what you have to say when you return.

Rest well! I will miss your insightful posts, but a break is much deserved,I think! Having only blogged half a year, I can say it does take time to do it well (which is rare for me!) Best, best!
Good for you, Angela! Count me as a faithful reader coming back in September. Best of luck with your personal issues, and enjoy and savor all of summer's delights.

You are an inspiration.
Enjoy your time away..

May your August be amazing, my friend!
Thank you all for your kind thoughts and support. I look forward to coming back to the conversation with all you lovely people next month.
I hope you have a good break! I've missed you around here, but I know "real life" has to take priority.
take care and see you soon - or read you soon!
Hi Angela,
Enjoy your break! Love your blog.
I've come back to blogging after a little sabbatical so. It works wonders!

I have really missed your voice this month and am looking forward to your return.
Thanks everybody! I'll be back this Thursday with a special Thrifty Threads (Sept.2nd) and then on the Tuesday after Labor Day (Sept.7th) I'll get back to business. Can't wait to get back in the conversation, I've missed you all! Looking forward to it!!
