Oh we all need a bit of R&R…
and sometimes it really is amazing how long it takes to post and write and comment and chat…and not forgetting the just surfing around the net…
I too find it hard to get around to all the jobs I need to get finished and find I need those extra few hours to just be with the family and make them feel special…
Hope you enjoy your break…

I know the feeling! Sometimes real life just has to take first place. I have just posted the link to the apron pattern on my blog – maybe you might take some time to make something pretty for yourself. Hope you find your way through.

I think blog breaks are very very important. In many ways having a blog that is updated daily or even several times a week, and commenting on others blogs is a job, a job which takes a lot more time than I ever realized. I know many many mothers who’ve begun blogs (great blogs!) and then a few months later left the blogging world. In this season of my life blogging is possible because I’m not working and don’t have children to care for, I know if I was back at work or had children I’d have to blog less and read fewer blogs.

I think it can take some time to work out what is right for you, for some that is blogging a couple of days a week, for others once a week, for others weekdays but not weekends. I think taking a break and looking at your life is always healthy, as is figuring out what you want to do and what you have time to do, so I hope you enjoy! :0)

Cooee from “Downunder” . I have travelled via Marmalade Rose and what a lovely journey it’s been.
Just enjoying the photos you took on your trip to the Dentist.Absolutely stunning, particularly the barn, mountains in background and windmill. Wonderful to be able to share your corner of the globe with people on the opposite side of the world.
We all need to take the batteries out and put them on the charger, so enjoy your ‘time out’

Blogging should be fun and enjoyable not another chore to burden us. Get some things done and find some head space, see you when you return!

Have some good time off getting things done. We’ve had a particularly busy and somewhat overwhelming February. I’m ready for a more laid back March! Look forward to your return.

Have a lovely rest – you certainly deserve it – cuddle those babes from us and get them to give you a big hug from me

I hear it. It’s hard to get inspired by all the gray and brown and cold and wind. I hope this break brings you rejuvination!

Don’t stress – enjoy your break. We will still be here when you get back. I don’t even have a blog and I even get stressed sometimes trying to keep up with all my favourites – so I can imagine how you must feel. I do have a compulsory self-imposed one day a week computer free so at least that shows some control!
