An Unwanted BUT Needed Break

I've been circling around this idea and didn't want to do it.  But I need to for now. It has been a long time coming but I've been procrastinating it pretty much all summer.  This past year has been hectic and crazy and I've still been trying to manage organizing and catching up on things and have only been mildly successful.

I haven't been able to blog like I want and it isn't for lack of interest in doing so.  Mostly lack of time.  Lack of time to do anything creative, lack of time to snap enough pictures to capture special moments, lack of time to visit other blogs and to put together as good of posts as I would like.  I can blame it on my crazy horomones which have shown their ugly face these past few months, or all the craziness that happens around me, or just my inability to better time manage.  Whatever it is I need to figure it out and refocus.  I'm not saying this is a year long or even 6 month long break.  Just a short break to in a way regroup until I can better focus and get my act together so to speak. 

This is one of D Family's ultimate favorite times of the year, aka the months that end in ber lol, with the holidays approaching and I just want to spend as much time with my men, family, and enjoying the season.  Of course with it being the most exciting time of the year, I do want to share those fun special holiday memories, crafts, baking, shopping sprees, parties, you name it with all of you.  But in an effort to create better posts without stressing out about time, I'm going to take a slight break from the blogging world.  I will check in on your blogs from time to time and maybe make a post once in a while.  I'm just eliminating any stress about doing so.  And I don't want to post unless I feel like it's a good one. 

I don't know if this will just be a month, 2, or 3 but I plan to be back before the New Year.  I just know I need to regroup.  I have always been into crafts, prims, and decorating.  I've just not had the time or energy to do much of anything in a very long time.  I'd like to incorporate more of that into my blog as well. 

I hope you wonderful ladies whom I have met in this great blog world will understand.  I can't wait until I really come back and get to see what all everyone's been up to.  I hope you all have some great times and memories in these next few months.  Remember to make time to enjoy the holidays with those special people in your life :)
