It will be three years this month since I started this blog.
The mind boggles when I think about how much things have changed. How much I have changed. Heartbreak, depression, redundancy, stumbling across the love of my life, starting a new job, losing friends but making new ones, having a book published, buying my first house, moving out, seeing Paris for the first time, getting my appendix out, getting married.
Seems as though I’ve done just about everything except cure my credit card debt.
I think about kissesandpunches almost every day. And sometimes I wish I had my 2am insomnia episodes again if only to spill my guts and know that someone out there, halfway across the world, is reading. I miss my bursts of inspiration and being able to sit down and regurgitate them in the early hours of the morning.
I think about all the wonderful comments I’ve received on this blog during the past three years, and all the people who have personally written to me expressing how inspired they feel after simply reading what I’ve written. My blog was never intended to be an authoritative or credible voice of experience but I feel so honoured and thrilled that it has been a source of inspiration for many. Thank you for reading, for your kind words, and for lending me your (cyber) shoulder to cry on because, let’s face it, I was on a bit of a rollercoaster for a while.
I can say for certain though that, right now, life’s pretty darn sweet.
Write soon xx

Lovely to have you back writing
Briony
and having those bad times makes the good times so much sweeter…
