As you could probably tell, Together We Save as been in quite a bit of a… ‘Hiatus’ lately.

I could not be any more sorry, and I could not feel worse, but to be completely honest, I’ve been pretty beat down lately.

I’ve been stuck, and it’s getting to me a lot. I am a firm believer in ‘if you aren’t okay, you shouldn’t be helping others who aren’t okay and you should focus on being okay’, and lately, I haven’t been okay.

I will be okay, and so will you, but I want you to know that I haven’t forgotten about any of you and I think about you all every day. 

Emotionally, I’ve almost hit a few relapses, but I’ve battled them off. When I get like this, unlike most, I become incredible self-aware and I don’t like to talk to people about what’s going on in my head. I like to figure it out on my own, unless I’m sure that I can’t. 

It’s not fair to you, I know, but at the same time, TWS is not going where I intended it to go. In fact, it’s doing the complete opposite.

I didn’t want it to be a ‘sit in my room on my blog all day’ thing, I wanted it to be a ‘make encouraging videos’ or ‘do speeches at high schools’ kind of thing. Unfortunately, it’s doing the ladder of the two, and it’s really emotionally draining, especially since I’m beginning to no longer enjoy logging in to this blog anymore.

I didn’t want it to just be some happy blog on Tumblr, I wanted it to be so much more. I wanted to travel with it.

So, I apologize to any of you that have felt ignored, unheard, or hurt because of my absence of this blog. 

I just don’t want you guys to think I’ve quit, or given up on you. I promised you I wont, and I am keeping that promise. I just need to figure my life out and remember why I started this in the first place. Don’t worry, I’ll figure it out. :)

Thank you for reading,

Shelby Blevins.

(PS. Kat and Chelsea haven’t forgotten either. They’ve just been absolutely swamped with life, and school, and work. <3 They love you guys)
