That's the special thing about blogging - its 100 percent about YOU. Do what YOU want! If you are too tired to blog at the end of the day - fine! I doubt any of your followers are going to smite you for it. I understand the need to blog frequently, as I too look at my blog every day and get a twinge of guilt if I don't have anything to write about. But I forget about it and move on. My life always comes before blogging. I really have no choice in the matter. So whenever you are feeling overwhelmed, take a deep breath, and realize that you can get to us later. We will always be here for you :)Rebeccahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05032253135634673005noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6627795921322237124.post-86442087612829138032010-05-27T08:28:25.152-07:002010-05-27T08:28:25.152-07:00hmmm, gotta say I get it :) I try to limit myself...hmmm, gotta say I get it :) I try to limit myself to an hour a day. Sometimes I hit that and sometimes I go over. I can't follow all the people I would love to, so I probably loose readers that way, but that is life. I have to do what I can. I have so many other things to juggle. I started my project but usually only post others letters, so no time there. I was also asked to blog the "help me grow" non-profit but plan on haveing several "posters" for that. I usually blog in the a.m. before kids wake up, during nap time, or late at night. Sometimes I am out of balance, sometimes in.<br /><br />I would say think about what you want to blog but not take so long to do it..? I know that takes practice too especially with all the homework time you have. Blogging is like anything else, it's not a bad thing but there might be better things at the time. <br />Good luck...life is a daily balancing act!Janae Mosshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03184505084660127209noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6627795921322237124.post-84495053393560596152010-05-23T14:53:44.948-07:002010-05-23T14:53:44.948-07:00I know what you mean!!

I think it is a lot harder to follow the ones who post everyday so you might be better off only posting a couple times a week. I've noticed a couple people who update theirs two or three times a day, and theirs are almost impossible to follow. Anyway, once the "novelty" of blogging wears off I think you'll be okay. I was the same way when I first started mine and now I'm down to logging on once or twice a week to update, and then once or twice a week to read the blogs I follow. This works for me, but I also don't do Facebook or IM so I don't know how it would pan out for you. Good luck, I hope you get it all figured out!!The Girl Who Loves to Whinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06366601176294639705noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6627795921322237124.post-87901495830733190072010-05-22T23:21:21.677-07:002010-05-22T23:21:21.677-07:00Tell me about it!!!
