April 1st, and yes, I have been a fool.

But this is no joke. I didn't even want to look, not even take a peek...like when you get on a scale and hope to God that its not going to be as bad as you think. Or when you are in school and getting an exam grade back and you know the night before you were out when you should have been studying and cracking the books. You pray that the professor bought your tangled lines of confusion, at least a little bit. You hope for the best.

But finally, I had to look. And there it was, in front of me. The date, crystal clear and the countdown clock still diligently working, turning over the numbers...tick, tick, tick. The last time I posted on my blog was in February. I felt guilty and even embarassed in a funny way. Not because I feel like people are logging on to read my thoughts first thing in the morning, but because I had made a promise to myself and this plastic keyboard. I was going to write about this year, this transformational year. This blog was going to be my AA meeting, keeping me honest and on track. Hello my name is Bridget, and yes, I am a blogger. I fell off the wagon. Actually, it feels like I jumped off. So my to do list has only one item right now. (The know it all sister was right - always only have three!) Get back to blogging and figure out why I strayed. It's April for crying out loud. A quarter of the year has passed me by...this needs some serious reflection. And perhaps back up support. I'll let you know the plan when I know the plan. Luckily, the past few months have been very good ones, I have plenty of material. Which also begs the question ala Jay Leno to Hugh Grant - what was I thinking? How could I have walked away when the best was about to unfold.
Well, stick with me as I figure it out. Trust me, I have some wonderful stuff to share. All of a sudden, I am feeling very chatty...
