I HAVE A CONFESSION I really like the people here and I enjoy putting up interesting blogs. At times though, it started feeling like homework. When I first started blogging, I got an idea and posted it and it was fun to see the reaction. Recently it's felt a bit like a chore. It isn't a reflection of any of the members here. It's me. I have been spending more time on my books and other interests so less posts. In some ways it's a good thing. Some people said I was the #1 blogger (their words) and with that came pressure. I had to keep posting. I don't want to feel like I have to. I want to post for enjoyment, like I did before. So if you've noticed, I have cut down on my posts in the last month or so. I post what interests me and what I'd like to share. If there are 3 things that I do want to share in a day, that's fine. However if there isn't for weeks, that's fine too. Secondly, do you ever come on here after being away a touch and then feel like you have to look at ALL the posts that you've missed? I know I have and again, it feels like work. So my new approach is that when I come here I look at the recent titles that sound interesting to me and read them and comment if I want to. I read them because I want to not because I have to. There is some really great posts and I still care for all of you. I just don't want it to feel like work. I am juggling too many things and I was spending way too much time here that I can't afford. Again, I really do like the people here so it's nothing to do with any of you. This is not one of those, I am leaving posts. I am not leaving. I would miss you all too much. Elaine Shuel |

Agreeing with Lisztie. You just write your blogs whenever you feel like it and we'll read them. So glad to have you in our group.

I've hardly written any blogs on this stie, just enjoy reading and commenting when I feel I want to and that's it. You dont have to be a slave to this, you are the Master (or Mistress) of what you want to do. Just enjoy, that's what it's about. The only one putting pressure on you is you. Kick back and let a blog flow when it comes. Love it when you do, and dont worry if you dont. It's that simple.  Judgment Day will be interesting - and all paths lead there.

I agree with what has been said above. I do the same as MrsJoe.

Oops I accidentally deleted your comment, Shartaun03. I wanted to delete my response to put it up in red. I'm sorry. Can you put it up again? My reply to your comment was: That's what I am doing. I was spending too much time here and neglected other things. I like the people like you SHartaun03 so I'll still be around. Thanks for your comment. Elaine Shuel
