Welcome back to The Freckled Soul! Yay!

About a month ago, we put the site on a hiatus in order to give our offline lives a little breathing moment. But now we are back. At this point there isn’t a fix posting schedule yet. However I want to try, together with my co-blogger to get two-three posts out each week. This way we can keep up with posting as well as our real life obligations. Plus summer is coming, and face it when you life in Belgium and there is just a little bit of sun out, you have to grab that moment with both your hands, because the next two weeks it might be raining as if all hell broke loose. I hope you will enjoy your stay here and keep looking out for our posts! (Pssss Our first post will be coming in one hour)

Today’s post is going to be a little update on what is going on behind the scenes of this blog. As you may have noticed updates have been slow this month. At this moment I have recorded from my third lung infection this year and I am currently taking care of my boyfriend aka Mr. White Wolf who is also an author on this blog.

My boyfriend has had surgery last week. This is the reason that he has been absent at this moment. He is doing better each day but he still needs to recover. So at this point I am doing a lot of the chores around the house, which is why I don’t have so much time to write for the blog at this moment. I did prepare a blogpost or two while I was sitting by his side in the hospital while he was still out of it from the anaesthesia.

So this is one of the reasons of the reasons that I reached out to the third author on this blog, Rachael. She has also been struggling with a nasty cold. We decided it would be a good idea to temporary close the blog so that we could find the time and create a schedule for each of us to post. And also in the little time that we do find to write, to prep some posts so that we can come back stronger!

I will keep you up to date on when we will be back, at this point I am thinking a few weeks, maybe a month at most. This would mean a return the latest by the 15th of April. I hope you don’t give up on us in the meanwhile!

Tonight is the night dead rise from the death. Tonight is also the night I bring my blog back from the death.

I look at my timeline and I can’t believe it has been over three months since my last post, which was supposed to be my big return but yes life got in the way of that once again. And I am sure you are probably tired of hearing this, but yes… I am having another go at this.

At this point I have an entire team behind me, I have support and I have my girl Rachael who is going to help me out. So I am feeling very good about this right now and lately I feel more energetic than the last couple of months.

I won’t make you any promises but I will do my best in updating this blog and creating a place you can come back to and enjoy the posts that we will bring.

Thank you for sticking what me!

Summer has officially arrived. For the last days it’s been extremely hot here in Belgium, too hot. Basically no one is really prepared for this kind of heat. Over the past days we were up to 35ºC and up. However it was said that today, with 40ºC would be the hottest day of all, allowing us if all went well to be the record on highest temperature, which was previously at 38,6ºC (8th of August 2003). We are still waiting for the official number to come in, but let me tell you, it’s be too hot to even leave the house or to do anything.

So what better to do then to work on my blog…

As you might notice, I have put up a new layout. It is a temporary one until I finish the one I really want to put up. For me this new layout, also symbolizes a brand new start. I know I have probably said this before, but life simply has gotten in the way for a few months. I have moved in with my boyfriend, meaning a lot of my things still haven’t gotten to leave their moving box and it has taken a lot of planning to get everything rolling, I have also started a new job, so it has been a bit hectic. I know it’s no excuse, but sometimes life simply takes over.

For those who are still sticking with me after all this time, thank you for following me. For those who are just discovering this site, welcome!

I still haven’t decided what kind of articles I want to put up, but I want to make it more than it was, more than makeup. I want to show you part of my life. I am also up on Instagram again, so you can follow me at thefreckledsoul for more updates. And I will see you all soon again!
