I have missed the ever loving hell out of your writing. It’s refreshingly honest and nearly always reflects back how I’m feeling at my own middle aged, parent of growing kids, exhausted, confused, hopeful, small business owning self. It is a joy to have you back.
SO lovely to read your news after all these years.. yours was one of the few dearly missed blogs.. very much enjoyed following you on IG in the meantime.. I am way past middle age myself, but still able to care for my
two daughters and one baby grandson at 76 instead of the other way round.. keeping my fingers crossed that I can
keep up my strength amidst all this chaos happening now... we have a war in Europe not that far from Vienna and exploding energy (and all other) costs... thinking of you in NYC who have your own challenges! xo, anna
So happy you’re back! And don’t feel pressured to write each week, unless you want to for yourself. I am just happy to read your writings again. I’ve said it many times but you seem to capture many of the things I’m feeling. Only you can actually express it and so eloquently, whereas I simply fumble and mumble my way through those thoughts and emotions. So happy you’re here!
I’m in a similar place now - don’t have to work anymore but try to do a little here & there just to feel like I’m bringing in something. Like you, I have a very strong work ethic so this is hard for me. Many times I feel like I should be doing more. But you’re right, I’ve been armed this time. I should value it & value myself more. Thanks for sharing.
Hi Jenna! I am one of these old blog readers (not much of a commenter though). I have kept up with you in instagram but I am not a huge fan of social media so finding out that you have a blog (is that what substack is? First time I hear about it, could be because I am not American and/or not up to date to online stuff). I really look forward to your newsletters - and since it's still early January, all the best to you and your family for the New Year.

Super happy you’re back and love love your thoughts. So real. Am all for it!
