you’re all free now

--March 24th, 2009--

No photo, no recipe, just a heart­felt THANK YOU to my loyal sub­scribed read­ers who suf­fered through 1) iso­la­tion, 2) pass­word annoy­ance, and 3) my sad mood upon clos­ing down the blog except to reg­is­tered readers.

Well… drum roll please… we’re OPEN! It was so sim­ple. I approached Avery’s school through the most offi­cial of chan­nels and no prob­lem: they are com­pletely happy for me to have my blog. It under­scored the com­plete and utter insan­ity of the school offi­cial tan­gen­tially related to dear Avery’s last edu­ca­tional insti­tu­tion just about a year ago. This lady, who was a com­plete stranger to all of us, flipped her lid to the extent that thanks to her threats to Avery’s hap­pi­ness and secu­rity (I wish I were mak­ing this up) I closed the blog to all but password-holders.

It sounds so sim­ple now, but the hideous and cruel threats of those old days held sway over me for months, right up until now. My ever-sensible hus­band said, “Why not just ask how the school feels?” and so, heart in my throat, I did. And they were LOVELY. Under­stand­ing, almost unin­ter­ested, just calm and modern.

So here we are. You can send the link to your friends! You can rec­om­mend my blog to your mother. You can do any­thing you like because we’re… open and ready for busi­ness. I thank you from the bot­tom of my heart for stick­ing with me through the rough patches. You know who you are.
