Signs that your child may be on to your candy pilfering habits:
I have been working more hours, and I've been blogging for 7 years come December, so I'm feeling a little burned out. This is why my blogging is spotty for now. I'll try to still write something at least once a week, but it may be a while before I resume 3 days weekly.
FUN!
ReplyDeleteThe boys look so cute! Haha, Mom has been busted--they're keeping count. :-) I understand burnout. I hope you can find the joy in blogging again. Are you still teaching?
ReplyDeletewe all understand. :) hope all is well with you all! your boys are all so cute!
ReplyDeleteVery cute photo of the boys. I will look forward to your posts whenever you can fit in the time. Take care.
ReplyDeletethey sure look cute!
ReplyDeleteThe kids look adorable!!! The Super Banana cracked me up and Edgar Allen Poe is so Clever (hope I spelled his middle name right).......congrats on blogging almost 7 years. I hit the 7 year mark in October and I share your feeling of feeling as if you are burned out. I have been battling with that for some time now. Let's hope we both can plow through it! I also have cut down the number of posts I do whenever possible, (I have two blogs so it is hard to do that). catchatwithcarenandcody
ReplyDeleteAlways nice to hear from you.I just got another computer to stay on top of things.I ate too much candy, I would have shocked those boys how much I have consumed.
ReplyDeleteI have trouble keeping my blog current, and I'm not working and don't have children at home. I think you do a great job of juggling everything.
ReplyDeleteHi, Cute kids and adorable costumes...
ReplyDeleteI know the feeling of Blog Burn-Out.... I've been through it several times --but 'burn-out' may not be the correct word for me. My problem is TIME... I even have trouble finding time to blog once a week --and seldom have time to answer others' blog posts... Frustrating --because I do love it.
Take care my friend.
Hugs,
Betsy
Awe - they look so cute! Pierce cracks me up. :)
ReplyDeleteI totally understand, Lisa. I just hope the added hours aren't too much for you. xoxo
I have always been amazed that you have been able to post at all with three boys. And even more so when you started to work. Glad you are back At ALL, so I can chat with you and see what's going on. LOVE Mario and Poe, they are adorable! I am assuming you hid most of the candy to dole out gradually, but smart boys will sniff out where the sugar is!
ReplyDeleteThe boys look fantastic, I love that they are all different to show their different personalities. Work is good we will still be here waiting, don't stress about it. Hug B
ReplyDeleteI think all regular bloggers need some time out from blogging, and this is their right to do so. I, too, have slowed down a lot with posting blogs, as I, too, have been feeling a little burnt out with writing them. Not to worry, the occasional blog will keep us both in touch with the blogging community!
ReplyDeleteYour boys are getting more handsome by the day!
I do love the Poe costume. A favorite writer of mine.
ReplyDeleteLove the costumes! I am cracking up about the candy count. I wish I had thought of that when I was growing up! Awesome (well, maybe not for you). :)

They look great! I hope you will show us their other costumes too.
ReplyDeleteThe boys look great, love their costumes!
ReplyDeleteLove the Edgar Allen Poe costume. All bloggers get burnt out at one time or another. Take a rest, then resume when you feel ready.
ReplyDeleteI like the Super Banana! I like that they are all something different.
ReplyDeleteI think once a week is a very reasonable pace--as you can probably tell. There was a time when I posted 3 times a week, and it was WAY too much. You really have to find the pace that fits with your life, eh?
ReplyDeleteThank you for taking care of yourself . . . sharing when it's right for you is a big blessing . . . you get more of your own life . . we continue to be blown away & inspired by your shares . . .
ReplyDeleteUniquely You
Is Simply AWESOME
love & love,

Lots of people are burning out. Don't do that! Just do what you need to do.
ReplyDeleteNo sense doing that!
cute!!
ReplyDeleteI miss having littles that dress up for Halloween.
you've been blogging a few years longer than i have. i completely understand the need to scale back (i have, also). it takes a great deal of time to keep these relationships going, yet they're extremely hard to let go of. :)
ReplyDeleteyour boys are too cute. love the 'count'. :)
love the costumes indeed! That's why we adore Halloween, right..
ReplyDeleteI love the costumes. Lewie's school would not allow students to wear any masks or hats on their heads, so I let him have the day off. (It's not fun being a "peashooter" if you're headless.)
ReplyDeleteI can completely understand your need to reduce your frequency of blogging. Every week I have to prioritize work, teaching, taking care of Little Lewie, cleaning/errands, and blogging. As much as I would like to blog at least one time per week (four times per month), there are times when I simply can't get to it. Many, many years ago, I used to write two or three posts per week, but those days are long gone. I've come to accept that my blogging is more for myself and my few bloggy friends and not to strike it big one day. In the end, I want to look back and remember the joys of motherhood; there are many, and I'm glad I've had the opportunity to document them in this way... Wishing you all the best Lisa. Your accomplishments each week will always continue to amaze me.
