Excuse Note

For awhile I stopped writing on my blog because I was entrenched in academic writing - the kind that makes me feel less and less intelligent the more I get into it.  Then there's the excuse that I've been running (literally) training for my first half marathon in 3 years. This has taken more out of me than I remember in the past, or perhaps it's the same as a mother forgetting the pains of childbirth that I return to it. 

There are times when I feel I have nothing more in the tank and the last thing I want to be reminded of is something I'm not doing. And while my blog is rather low stakes as far as things I must do, I still feel a sense of guilt. 

I'm going to stop and hit "publish" before I make another excuse.
