Apology for my absense

Hello again,
I have not posted for almost a week and I apologize. My family and I went through a very difficult time which was incredibly hard for me to handle and process and I hope you understand that I could not bring myself to post on here during that time. It has nothing to do with the kittens dying that I posted about in my second last post, which was difficult but nothing compared to the weekend's events. I am trying to be as open as I feel comfortable to be and this is all I can share on the subject currently. I found it next to impossible to see much good in anything during the past week. I personally wonder if anyone really noticed that I haven't posted on here because (according to the stats on my blog) not many people read this. I want to say thank you to the people who have stuck with me and read some or all the posts I have written. Thank you. I am not sure if I should play catch up and post 7 blessings or just pick up where I left off. I suppose with this blog I am making my own rules as I go and when I started I didn't anticipate taking a week off like this so maybe I should just decide what I want to do. life sometimes throws curveballs that we don't see coming so we have to adjust things as we go. So I think I will just pick up where I left off and today is day 236 instead of last Sunday. I am only human and some days it seems impossible to find anything good to be thankful for. I am sure that good will come from this experience but I have yet to figure out what that is. Until then, I would like to apologize for my absense, thank you for continuing to read my blog and hopefully understanding my reasons for not posting this week.
