Hello there!
Is anybody still reading this blog after my absence for a couple of months? I apologize for being MIA for such a long period. Life caught up with me and I needed a time out. Sometime we end up in situations that are bad for us and we are not doing anything to change it ot get out of it. This is what happened to me, honestly I do not even know how I was able to endure the situation as long as I did but in the end it was too much to take and I was forced to make some changes in my life. I still cannot believe the things I was confronted with but in the end I came out ok, stronger even. Without friends, family and the best husband ever I don't think I would have been able to come out ahead. Thank you all for being there for me!
I have missed you all so much and am happy to be back!
Big hug,
Nina
Oh, welcome back my dear! I'm so sorry you've had a rough go of it lately. So much of what you said resonated with me, really. Last year I was in a work situation (working for a friend, even) that was miserable for me and hard on my family. It took months for me to realize that the relationship I had with my friend/boss was abusive. I had one of those moments where I thought, "If anyone else were doing this to me, I'd leave immediately."
ReplyDeleteI saw the project out, but didn't sign up to do it again, and we're all (poorer!) happier. Good for you just for mucking through it, and welcome, welcome back! XO
Thank you for the warm welcome! Your situation does not sound so great either but I am glad you got out of there. In the end we always know better but sometimes getting to that point is hard. It's so good to be back! xo
DeleteWe've missed you and are glad you're back. Let me know if you need anything or if I can help in any way
ReplyDeleteThanks for welcoming me back! It's great to be back again. Your offer of help is greatly appreciated. It feels good to be supported!
DeleteI missed you and checked back every week! A few days ago I stole Sven's iphone to check out your photos on instagram ;) And I saw a comment that you don't work as an architect anymore?! Hope you are ok or that things are at least better now!!!
ReplyDeleteYes, I quit architecture but it is all good :) Will write you an email or message on facebook with the details...
DeleteWelcome back Nina! I've sure missed you, but I understand needing a time out. Hope things are better now in your life and hope you can spend some time blogging in the future.
ReplyDeleteMissed you too! I hope you and the little one are doing great, have to check out your blog to see how the pregnancy is coming along!
DeleteYou're back!! You're back you're back you're back!! Amazing! I missed you tons and stons but I totally understand needing a breather. Especially given your icky situation. Thank you for still being a friend through it all, I was happy as could be that we could still email behind the scenes even when you weren't blogging. Welcome back, Nina! xo
ReplyDeleteYay! I am back :) Can't believe it took me so long. Thanks for listening to my whining and ranting about everything. I am starting to feel a lot more like my old self again...xo
DeleteI'm happy that u r back too. And remember when 1 door closes ... another one opens .. to a path of beauty and passion! Shine your talent with soul!
ReplyDeleteAda, the door thing is so true, it just took a while for me to realize another door was already waiting for me to enter...Thanks for welcoming me back!
Deleteit's so good to have you back i have missed you!!!! i would check at least 2 times a week and that little cabinet would wave at me and say "nope, she's not back yet." i am glad to know that you were getting things sorted out and fixing a situation that sounds like it needed to be fixed. yay! i can't say i know what you went through but i know when you get rid of negative energy in your life doors open and i am excited to see what doors open for you now that they have the space to open. xo
ReplyDeleteUnfortunately I cannot talk about what happened on the blog or more I chose not to talk about it here, which was sometimes pretty hard...It's good to be back though. Although it is hard to get back into the rhythm.
DeleteWe missed you too- welcome back Nina Ballerina!
ReplyDeleteIt's good to be back! :)
DeleteYOU ARE BACK! I missed you heaps Nina! So sorry to hear that you have been going through a horrible time. I hope things start looking up for you and give me a shout if you ever need anything! I have missed my daily stops at number 40! xxxxxxxxx
ReplyDeleteGlad to be back! Missed you guys so much! xx
DeleteNina is back! Whoohoo! I came here from time to time, found this abandoned place with spam comments and got a little worried - then I saw that you were still posting on instagram and was relieved you were at least still there! I read in the comments that you left architecture. I don't know what you went through exactly but since my mother is an architect I know that it's not always the best for your life and soul - she was close to quitting architecture many many times. Good you found another open door for you, I'm curious to find out where it leads - but I'm sure I will. Welcome back!
