I love blogging.
I love having a place to record my thoughts, to experiment with different types of writing, to share the funny stories of my children. And the community, I have been overwhelmed by the community I now feel a part of. The support and perspectives I received on my post about Brandon blew my socks off!
I rarely feel that blogging is a burden. In fact, I get frustrated that I can never seem to find the time I want to spend on it. So many posts, that start in my head, never see the light of day. Because I can't seem to find the time to write them.
Because I have children. And people expect me to raise them or something.
But unfortunately, I need to take another break. There are some things I need to focus on here at home, that I have been neglecting. Because as usual, discipline in my life is something I struggle with. And I spend time reading and writing that I really should have been spending in other areas of my life. And so it's obvious to me now, that I lack the discipline to be able to juggle everything at once. So I doubt I will post much this week. And the same goes for reading and commenting. But I'll be back next week.
Because I love blogging.
And in the meantime, read this post by the incomparable Veronica Mitchell if you haven't already. Because it says what I am really going through better than I ever could. Except the PhD part. And because it's fabulous. Like her.
See ya soon.

Thanks! Enjoy your break.
I struggle with being disciplined, too. I love blogging and reading and like you, find it hard to efficiently juggle that with my other responsibilities. Blogging is a hobby I love, but perhaps I need to follow your example and take a break and rearrange my priorities.
Thanks for the reminder.
Wishing you lots of productive time on your break.
Have a good break. Real life HAS to come first.
