A Purpose Statement?

I think one of the hardest parts of parting with The Sweetest Petunia is the questions. Why? Why would I give up a (kind of, sort of) successful blog to start all over again? Was my brain still working when I pushed the delete button?

I don't know.

Deleting The Sweetest Petunia was not an easy decision. And guess what? I have 89 days before deletion is permanent. But I don't think I'll be resurrecting it.

Maybe I just craved a clean slate. Or maybe my personal life has been crazy in the past 2 weeks, causing me to change a lot of things. Maybe I wanted to start over and not feel like I have to impress anyone.

I don't know.

But please, bear with me. I haven't left the blogging world. I'm still here. I'm still the same girl. I've just moved to a new address...

Welcome to {This Time Around}

Dear blog,

I may seem a little crazy. But last night I deleted The Sweetest Petunia. I wish I could explain it to the blogosphere, but I can't. Right now, it's just best.

Now, don't get me wrong. I loooove blogging. And I'm not quitting. I'm just moving.

So if you've followed me here from The Sweetest Petunia, I am beyond honored. Floored, really. And very excited about what's to come for this blog.

{Wait, that just made it sound like I'm going to reveal something amazing about this blog in particular. Don't get too excited}

The Sweetest Petunia was me. Really, it was. And now I'm creating a new blog? I know, I think I'm crazy, too. Because now I'm starting back at square one.

I'm just a girl with a blog. I hope you'll join me {This Time Around}.
