Out of my Bubble....Now What?

What?

Had a lot on my plate lately. Work, a move, a lost pet, published an e book...so I retreated to the familiarity of writing. I blog for a site and also have been on some of the writing forums. So I guess you can say I was in my own Bubble, but decided to get out by one of the things I know relaxes me. I missed a lot of my pals on the forum and could not figure out where they went. So with a little work I decided to join this site and post a bit. Although I am still learning the ropes on Mylot, I never remain a newbie long. I still need to deal with what life has dealt me, but I am so happy to find a community like this to share thoughts in. Best part is I have seen some familiar faces and it will be good to catch up. I guess writing for me is a "safe place" I go when it seems like the rest of my life is a bit overwhelming. I wonder if others see writing in the same way? Since I don't drink, to me spilling out thoughts is probably the equivalent to some of "popping a cold one".

Just joined this site after a friend, @Shohana told me about this site. Like you, I missed a lot of online friends, and so I was so happy to see familiar names here. I am @simplewoman in Bubblews.

@acelwrites Well welcome here. I remember you and your writing. Sort of like a class reunion here...I kept the justusforus just added my desert spin to it.

@desertdawg It makes sense that you would want to be in your own bubble with all you went through. Sorry about the loss of your pet. That is a real hard one. I have gone through that too and both times it did not make it any easier. I do not believe we have never met here so I would like to say hi and welcome.
