Under pressure

I have been putting too much pressure on myself! I have been getting a little stressed with something that should be fun and creative. I did this to myself.

I liked the post I did on 12/31/09 - #6 that I blogged every single day of 2009. I wanted to do it this year too... but with the stress and demands of work I have to make some changes. I need to change my perspective and my stress level in the evenings. I confess, I have been writing tomorrows post the night before and then setting it to publish at a certain time the next day.

I'm not going to stop blogging, but I am not going to hold myself to the idea that I have to post every single day!

There may be some days when I don't blog, I hope it won't turn into more than a week without blogging. But until I get my head/heart/soul feeling less stressed I've got to give myself a break.


I'll still be checking in on all my friend's blogs. And checking in with Facebook too. If you see me online, stop and say hello!

A video blog entry is always fun, especially if it is shot in your shower. You can tell us what's going on in your life as you scrub your scalp and polish your golden spike. You have to take a shower every day anyway, so what the heck.

I'm going through the same this year. Last year I pulished at least 5 days a week. It's a lot of work trying to keep up with everything. I am telling myself it's okay to miss a few days. I'm too hard on myself too!

I think I understand of the pressure on daily blogging. However I don't make it a must-do thing.
Sometimes I see you on FB but too nervous to say Hi :)

my spouse publishes twice a week on his blog. if you go missing for a few days, the universe will not stop spinning...and your faithful fans will be there when you return.

no apologies necessary...do what you feel and feel what you do!

(although I AM inclined to agree with cubby...a shower dance would be most welcome!)

Blogging is a hobby, not a career.
Blog when you wish.
Happy First o' May!
