I apologize.
I know my posts are super sporadic.
I have a whole bunch written in my head and just seem to…
never actually type them up.
Lame. I know.
I’m struggling to find the balance.
I thought when the kids were all in school that I would have all this time to just do what I want.
Ha!
I am not exactly sure where I got that impression (perhaps TV shows that feature woman lying on couches eating bonbons all day long???).
Whatever the reason I thought it,
I was wrong.
Turns out, without the kids home I tend to cook elaborate meals, clean the house thoroughly, exercise (!), and do home repairs that have gone undone for months on end.
Who knew all of that could be so darn time consuming?
(ok, of course I did. Because it’s not like I was a total slacker with kids home with me
)
Anyway, I totally blamed Instagram for killing my blog a while ago and I will still stand by those claims.
But
serious lack of time is also to blame.
Or, maybe a better way to describe it is my priorities are changing.
Now, don’t get me wrong.
I still love writing and still have a lot to say (and you should be thankful I am keeping my political rants away
).
I just
need to find my writing mojo again and until then,
I will try to be less
infrequent.
I, too, thought I would have bucket-loads of spare time once my youngest went to school But, instead, life got busier and crazier!
I also have been struggling with keeping my blog up to date … maybe the blog era has come and gone?
I have honestly begun to think that, aside from the real “professional” blogs.
. )
Kind of sad. I have loved blogging but now, sometimes, it feels like a chore (& obviously its why I don’t write often because I don’t want to sound bored with myself
Glad I’m not alone.
Oh mine are so sporadic too – but life is just busy. We understand. Totally
I completely understand Debi! I find I have very little time to write & even less time to read blogs at the moment ~ it’s not that I don’t want to, but we have to prioritise real life & it’s wonderful what you are doing! My hubby is away tonight so I’m checking out a couple of blogs before bed ( which I’m going to in ten minutes, so it is a very brief look). Hope you are going well & keep on loving on your beautiful family because that is so much more important & know that I’ll still be here when you feel like writing ~ I may not read straight away, but generally I do catch up on most posts sometime!
Love to you

thats funny caus I have stopped reading blogs because of instagram lol. I know all about your life, or can piece it together because of it lol.
I actually think you can get a more intimate view of someone’s life on Instagram than you can on a blog, because often you get updates all day long.
I just love it.
Balance…yes…that’s what I need these days. My blog has been horribly quiet lately. I think I posted for the first time this week in almost a month! Work has been crazy, chaotic and stressful. I’m staying late every day and totally spent by the time I get home.
I’m really enjoying Instagram though too…I’m a very visual person and love photos…and its quick to check out once or twice a day.
I get it. I think I get so overwhelmed that I go into not doing anything mode. You’ll find your grove again when it’s time.
