Getting (Back?) to Normal

Whew!  Winter break is over.  The kids are back in school, and like a lot of other folks, I'm trying to get back in the regular swing of things.

My writing and blog reading have both fallen by the wayside as I tried to make time, not just for the holidays but for the out-of-town visitors (and guests) that came with the celebrations.  I'm looking forward to getting back to something resembling my former schedule, but I'm realizing that I'm going to need to start cutting back on my overall online time in order to maintain a better balance in my life.  I'm not quite sure how that will play out, but I suspect (if I'm doing what's good for me) my blog commenting (and sadly probably some of my blog reading) is going to have to drop off.  We'll see how it plays out.  After I stop by and catch up with reading those of you who blog, of course!

Hope 2009 is wonderful for all of you and hope to start (slowly) getting (back?) to normal here.

  1. I know that feeling of needing to cut back. I've decided in 2009 that I am going to designate a day for reading, and a day or two for posting. Writing has been part of my life for so long now that I know it would be impossible to not write, and frankly, I think it is part of my healthy balance. Still, I can find myself online for hours, reading and commenting, and I would like to take a huge chunk out of that.

  2. I told my sponsor I was slowly getting back to normal. She wanted to know what normal looked like. It doesn't look like holidays, that's all I know.

  3. It's funny but I feel the same way. The kids are back in school, my schedule is getting back to normal and yet I feel like I need to step away from being on the internet so much and trimming back on reading blogs.

  4. Good for you, MPJ. I did the same thing on our return from honeymoon and it's been quite liberating. I'm still something of a blog addict, but I'm managing it better these days and it feels great!

  5. And that's okay...pace yourself according to your needs and the needs of your family...it's all that matters ;)
