A combination of factors, which I can get into at another time (but which include a still-very sore wrist that I’ve had to wrestle with over the last several months, despite doctor’s orders, while trying to keep up with a helluva busy election season), has forced me to slow down a bit<\/i> on this end over the last several days, while allowing time for a few more guest voices here in the bargain.<\/p>\n
I thank you for your patience and understanding as I continue to tread water and do my best to chew well so much that I’ve bitten off over the last several years (much of which takes a while before it makes its way onto these pages) and offer an early heads-up that I am going to try<\/i> to take a bit more down time — in hopes of allowing my wrist to heal a bit, my brain to heal a bit, my body to catch up with some rest, my family to actually see me for a minute or two, as well as a number of other well-worth-it super-secret projects which require some time and attention — over the next month or two (or even three if I can get away with it) during and after the holidays.<\/p>\n
My hope is to bring on a few more guest contributors here to allow me some of that time. If I’m lucky, I’ll be able to spend some much needed<\/i> hours away from the blog in the bargain, though not immediately and certainly not indefinitedly. So, with much still on the plate, I’m still right here, and have much more to come (even today, on a number of important items, if I can catch up, with a TV taping scheduled for mid-afternoon to keep me further behind-schedule). But I just wanted to offer a quick status report, and explain why I’ve been a bit<\/i> slower than I’d like in keeping up with a lot<\/i> that continues to roll over the last several days in a number of places (AK, MN, and GA, to name just a few of them).<\/p>\n
Hopefully, you haven’t much noticed. But either way, as mentioned, thanks again for your patience and understanding, and for your support over so many months and years<\/i>. I’ll do my best to keep you all up to date on the above as things move forward, of course, and hope, in the meantime, you’ll keep The BRAD BLOG<\/a> high your list of daily must-reads in the ever-growing blogosphere…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" A combination of factors, which I can get into at another time (but which include a still-very sore wrist that I’ve had to wrestle with over the last several months, despite doctor’s orders, while trying to keep up with a helluva busy election season), has forced me to slow down a bit on this end […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[26],"tags":[],"coauthors":[],"class_list":["post-6680","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-brad-blog"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/bradblog.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6680","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/bradblog.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/bradblog.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bradblog.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bradblog.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=6680"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/bradblog.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6680\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/bradblog.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=6680"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bradblog.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=6680"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bradblog.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=6680"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bradblog.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcoauthors&post=6680"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
