Sofa and the City: Thank You and Goodbye!

Thank You and Goodbye!

Hey gorgeous people

As my life becomes less sofa and more city it is time for me to say goodbye to Sofa and the City. What a wonderful time I have had on this blogging adventure, (well, apart from that one episode but hey we don't need to talk about that do we?) I want to say a BIG THANK YOU to you all for reading and for being part of this experience. Writing has become such a big part of my life and that's down to you: everyone who reads SATC gives me the confidence to write more. There is no going back now. I AM a writer!

And of course, I have met some amazing people. And the comments you have left me and the emails I have received from you have encouraged me as I have travelled on the bumpy (sometimes very bumpy!) recovery road.

And guess what? Just because SATC has come to its natural end, it doesn't mean you can't carry on reading about what I'm up to - of course, there is another blog, you don't get rid of me that easily. I am very excited to announce the launch of The Reinvention Tour. Please come over and say hello, I would love to see you.

I know many of you are on your own recovery journeys and I wish you all the best. And although I won't be writing any new posts here, SATC will still be here for you as a mini library of how I got to this point in my recovery.

I leave you with this: people DO GET BETTER from CFS. I know people who are completely recovered and I myself have improved significantly - and I am determined to continue to build on these improvements and live my dream as a successful writer (with a six-pack, obviously.)

Love and energy to you all.

Karen...xxxx

I have to confess that I'll miss SATC but am also so happy for you and will definitely be following you as you continue your adventures.

Thank you for visiting my blog. I always love to hear peoples thoughts and comments, that's what makes this all so interesting.

People say the loveliest things!!

'Thank you for this blog, I do enjoy reading it and what you are bringing up and into the open in such a fabulous style!' Kate

'What's my therapy for when Mr. M.E sweeps me off my feet? Why, reading Sofa Karen's bog of course!' Jo

'Loving it Karen! What a brilliant and informative synopsis of the XMRV and all it entails!! Thank you for your uplifting blogs and help towards the crusade of enlightenment!' xx Ngaire

'Your insatiable quest to learn, understand and conquer and that unique sense of style in which you do it, is as infectious in print as it is in person.' Emma

'You always manage to express what I'm thinking!' Lauren

'I love individualism, and you got it to a T! It's about the here and NOW, making each day count; especially us women. We are strong, beautiful, "know what we want", living our purpose, bad mammer jammers! Thanks for sharing your story!' Callie

'This is so interesting to me. I know so little about ME and I am sure that if it happened to me my approach would be totally similar to yours. It is astonishingly hard for a type-A personality to accept that despite trying and working very hard at something they might still not get the result they want...I am beginning to get a glimpse of what you've gone through - and it must be hard.' Petraruns

'Hilarious and poignant at the same time - the lengths we go to to get well. You're born to blog Karen, keep up the good work!' The Boy Pacer

'I loved every minute of your post -- the text, the pictures. It was my getaway!' Toni

'I love your writing....and find your work as good as any book I have read. I particularly like the personal touch, your life, thoughts and feelings etc...The humorous side to your writing always lifts me. Keep it up girl, if it feels good...!' x Julia

'Discovered your blog quite recently whilst going through another rough patch with our friend Mr M.E and you have helped me to feel a little more positive as well as making me smile. Thank you!' x Alison
