I’ve got to break free
This is not meant to be a “I’m taking a hiatus from blogging” post but rather, a “I’m so stressed out and overwhelmed at work that I don’t think about anything but work and I can’t write about that here so posting may be sparse for awhile” post.
But it seems like whenever I write something like that my brain is automatically filled with post ideas. So we’ll see.
I apologize for falling behind on responding to comments, reading blogs and commenting, responding to emails, oh, and not having the energy to do anything once I leave work.
(For extra credit, name the band that I stole my title from - no google)

It’s okay Kim, we understand.
Take care of yourself. And the band is Queen. What do I win??

Darn it- Diane beat me. I was gonna say Queen.
You don’t have to apologize. Life happens. Just focus on what needs attention right now.

diane - you win my undying love
sizzle - Thanks. I do need to FOCUS.

it’s all good and completely understandable!!! the same thing happens to me!!! you do what you need to do and when you have time we’ll all be here waiting patiently!!!

unfortunately work comes before blogging. Do whatever you need to do to eliminate the stress. I’m an email away if you need to vent!

I have felt like that too recently. It’s difficult for me to “write” when I know I have a lot of work on my plate.
I can stumble through some “stream of consiousness,” but I don’t like to do that most days. I wish I did, because those posts are often better than the more thought-out posts, but I’m too used to working for my words.
Don’t worry about the readers. We’ll be here when you are.

CourtneyInControl - thanks
Gina (Mannyed) - does work have to come before blogging…?
ajooja - I wonder if it is a February thing. That wouldn’t make any sense though. I hope both of our loads lighten up soon.
Christina - you’re welcome! I hope the things are nice, I didn’t see any on display or anything so I couldn’t tell. Love you XOXO

Hey, you do what you gotta do. We’ll still read. Well, I will. I know that much. You stuck with me through my lean times.

If anyone has earned some time off from their blog, it’s you! You’ve been consistent for such a long time.
Too bad we can’t all find someone to PAY us to blog, huh? I mean, pay us BIG MONEY.

P.S. That’s one of my favorite Queen songs!

I’ve taken a hiatus as well. Hard to blog when there’s so much stuff going on and none of it you can blog about.

I can definitely empathize with needing a blogging break. I’m trying to lay out spring plans (spring will come eventually - I just have to click my heels three times and believe in it!) and things are ramping up at work, so it’s either time for stronger coffee or a few days sleeping instead of blogging. I feel bad for not having kept up with yours and others’ blogs lately, and worst of all I have no idea where the time went!
