i've been a very bad blogger lately. to the point where i stopped checking on my stats cause they are that bad. & somehow this past week turned into an accidental no-technology-week. i did think about publishing a post once or twice last week. you know, just so i'd have something for readers to read. also so they wouldn't forget about me. but instead i wanted to do something else, like spend time with family or go to the movies with friends. there was even a day where M & i watched close to four episodes of Dexter {that was a good day}.
last night i had to remind myself that blogging is a hobby. it's a hobby i love, but simply a hobby. i know for many bloggers it's more than i hobby, it's their way of making a living. but, right now this little blog of mine is just a fun way for me to share my life & connect with others. & i truly love! but i've noticed it takes a lot of my time. time that i could have been doing other things, like watching a silly movie with my father-in-law or taking my pups outside for a walk. i know these all seem small & maybe trivial things, but it's those things that i want to remember about my life -- the small things. & i believe that i need to remember to live my life first & blog later. this blog has become a huge part of my life, actually one of my favorite things to do now, it's just sometimes it's all i tend to focus on. so forgive me if i'm absent a lot.

thank you to those who emailed me in regards to my absence. i'm not gone, but tried removing technology for a whole week :) y'all are the best.
i can't be the only one who struggles with managing my time; if there's advance you're willing to share i'd love to hear it!
