Closing up shop?

I have not been using this blog as much as I used to... and I almost feel that this blog, under the PVNS umbrella, has run its course... I hope my journey with PVNS is over.... I just completed some information for research about pvns and it was a difficult process for me.  I am glad that there is research being done and hope that there are medications that can help people with pvns... There have been some times over the last several months where I was scared that PVNS had come back... and since I am a bit stubborn and have not gone to see a doctor about it I can not say with 100% certainty, but... I don't think it is back.  I have found that being more active brings relief to the pain and stiffness I was feeling.  I think I have arthritis... well I know I have arthritis in that knee, my doctors told me that the last time I saw them in Boston, but I think it has worsened... and know I need to be active in order to keep my knee as healthy as I can... Providing information for the research team brought some intense emotions to the surface and while I am happy to participate, it also felt like I was giving pvns power in my life again, and I didn't like that feeling.  In a way, made me want to distance myself further from pvns... I am grateful for the connections this blog has brought me as well as the support... it has been a place for me to process many difficult things in my life and I thank you all for indulging me over the years...

I am considering starting another blog, one that is more related to my life, as a homeowner, as an assistant principal, as a daughter, sister, niece, friend, etc... but it will likely not be a blog that will be 'open to the public'... as I don't feel the need to be available to people as a resource on something like PVNS... I need to find a way to get this blog published into a hard copy, for myself, to have... and will keep it up for a while longer and as I figure out my next blogging steps will see if I can keep the posts related to pvns, but maybe remove some of the other things...

So... loyal blog readers...thank you... for those of you who are my friends and family outside of the virtual world, if you want to have access to another blog (should I decide to do one) let me know...

in the meantime...Be well... be happy!
