this is the end my friends…

Look, I have spent several faithful years at this blog. Well sort of faithful and I think it is time for an end. There are a couple reasons for this. People reading this blog only see one side of me. The stressed out neurotic side. There are a lot more dimensions to me than that. I think I am getting anxious about what about me is online. It will take a while for me to archive this site–and to even figure out how to do it, but I am leaving dirtandglitter nonetheless.
Also I am leaving because as more people read it, the more censoring of myself I do, and I don’t want to have to do that. I don’t want to have to appease others or tell guarded truths.
Thirdly and very importantly for years now I have been operating under the perspective, advice, perceptions and stories of someone I love and trusted. It is now that I realize that that person may not have always been honest with me, this has caused me to question a lot of things in my life. I haven’t been entirely fair in my perceptions of people specifically my father. I know he is not perfect, and mistakes have been made, but it also isn’t fair to dis him the way I have on this blog, especially realizing I don’t have all the facts.
Anyway I am done here at dirtandglitter. I am not done with blogging, just this type of blogging. I may soon start a recipe/craft blog but nothing so chaotic and personal as what has been up here. Thank you those of you who have read and been supportive of me over the years.

Much Love,

Denieal
