I have been blogging for almost 8 months but the first 4 my hubby was unemployed and home all day. So I have really only had about 4 months where I have had to juggle this and real life by myself. Some weeks I will feel pretty good about how things are going. Other weeks my house looks like it should be condemned and I feel like a crazy person. This was one of those crazy weeks. I was preparing for Studio 5 (I am on again Wednesday!), I switched to Word Press and lost 400 subscribers, I had a birthday party for my 7 year old, an Easter egg hunt, Easter, and of course some random projects. One day I will be organized. One day I will feel like my house runs smoothly. One day fill in the blank . . .
Thank you to everyone who linked up to our get real linky party. I had fun reading through them all. One day when I learn Word Press I will figure out how to take off the green sentence off the top that takes you there seeing as the linky is now closed. But until then, use it to go read all the cute posts, I guess.
Also, did you notice the Michaels ad on my blog? You can get 20% off your entire purchase and that even includes sale items. If you were planning on going there anyway, you might as well save some cash!
I have an AMAZING giveaway for you all tomorrow. You will not want to miss it. So Happy Easter. Enjoy your Sunday afternoon, and come back in the morning for the FUN giveaway :)
Deep breath =)
Juggling is hard work, but I'm sure you are doing just fine. We love ya.
You'll find the balance! You're doing awesome.
So how's WordPress - - I'm scared to make the jump, but it seems like everyone else is going over there....
I think part of the trick to finding balance is cutting yourself a break. I didn't blog or read e-mails at all during this past weekend. It was the only way to get everything done for the Easter weekend since we were hosting. I'm playing catchup this morning, but I'd be in a coma now if I had tried to do it all over the weekend.
I think you are doing a pretty awesome job. Your blog is one that I love to come back and read. Don't be so hard one yourself and keep smiling:>
Hang in there! You're a great mom and blogger! It is a relief for all of us when we know that wonder-women like you do live lives that at least sometimes look a little like those of most of us who would give anything to be more balanced and on top of things! You're doing an amazing job, and the swift-over glitches will be fixed before you know it. Thanks for sharing your life with all of us! You're awesome!
