So Where Have I Been?

If you have wondered where I've been hiding for so long....thank you for caring. If you've been checking back to see if I've updated the blog only to find it's been months since I've written anything....there is a reason.

This may come as a surprise, but the man I write this blog for is more than just a driver to me. He is a friend of mine. One whom I totally adore. Lately things haven't been as good as I would like them to be. I have struggled with my own personal issues, hurts and hardships. I've also watched things in Denny's life not be as good as I would like them to be.

I came to the conclusion that my updating everything that happens for this driver that very few see outside of a fire suit was detramental to him instead of beneficial. For a man who clings tightly to his privacy and needs some sense of obscurity in his life....I was not a help. I was a hindrance.

By telling well-meaning fans where to find him at every appearance and posting his every move, from searching for a new house, buying new property, vehicles, and going on trips with friends, I have opened up his private book and exposed him to hurtful situations I never even dreamed of.

It took me a while to realize that while I have his best interests at heart...not everyone does. So, I have made the decision to take some time to rethink and restructure Becca's Denny Hamlin blog. I would never want to do anything to hurt someone who means the world to me. And I fear that without realizing it I may be guilty of just that.

Please understand this isn't easy. We all lose family members, go through hard times, and every driver at some point will have disagreements with other drivers and team issues. But while this may be a natural part of life, not everyone wants it plastered in the media.

I have a piece of my heart invested in the man who drives that # 11 Fed Ex Toyota and I fear that I'm too close to the situation so I'm backing off for a while.

I will be posting a birthday greeting for D Ham on November 18th so please be sure to stop by and show him how much you love him and wish him a happy growing older wish. HA HA Got ya bro....

Thank you all for understanding and for being such amazing followers. DH... This wasn't easy. I wiped tears from my eyes as I typed this post. But I have your best interest at heart and would do anything for you. Including shut down this blog tomorrow if I thought I ever said anything that upset you or made you have a second of hurt. I care about you deeply and hope you will always remember that. You're my hero...and I'm so incredibly proud of you! Keep fighting!!!! GO # 11!!!!
