    It’s been over a month since I wrote a new column but I just posted one and wanted to share the link here for those who don’t check the main page regularly.

    https://dearwendy.com/am-i-wrong-to-enjoy-attention-from-my-ex/

    I hadn’t planned to take a break, and I don’t think I shared this here, but Drew had a second surgery at the end of March and there were complications and he was hospitalized again (after nearly dying in early January and having emergency surgery and being hospitalized for a few days then) and it was a stressful and exhausting few months and I was just really burned out. I feel super lucky that I’m able to make enough passive income from thirteen years’ worth of content here that I can take a step back and catch my breath like I did last month. My goal going forward is to post 1-2 new columns a week as I had been doing for a while (and I’m happily accepting letters if you’ve got an issue I might be able to help with). Thanks, everyone, and I hope you all are doing well. 🙂

    I hope Drew is on the mend! I’m glad you were able to take a step back to be with your family and hopefully prioritize yourself as well during a stressful period of life.

    Thanks, Copa. Drew is well on his way to a full recovery (yay!) and I think I’ve managed to take good care of myself while holding down the fort during Drew’s convalescence. Fortunately, the kids at 8 and 12 are a lot more independent than they’d have been if this happened a few years ago, so that helps!

    Glad to hear that things are on the upswing with Drew and that you’re prioritizing your own needs as well.
