So, as I've mentioned. Last weekend, I went to the Casual Bloggers Conference with my friend Cindy. It was an interesting weekend and I met a lot of amazing women, but truly, I came home with more than I bargained for.
I used to read books -Novels, Memoirs, Poetry. I used to garden, clean my house, do laundry. But now, I don't do any of those things. I simply read blogs. I came home after meeting so many incredible women, and started reading their blogs. Now, I have no time to do anything else. But I'm finding myself addicted. They are funny, and strong. They inspire me and amaze me. I'm learning cool things, and hopefully one day I will being to use their knowledge to make myself and my family better.
But sadly, because of them, everything in my home is falling apart. I don't have time to do anything else. I'm going to have to find a balance, but right now, I don't quite know how. So, I will watch as my family suffers, and my children starve...well, I won't quite watch it happen, because I would then have to look up from the computer screen. :-)
It has been a delightful read...

It is TOTALLY addictive to read other people's blogs. I need to get BACK into it as I haven't felt like it since the Conference.
I've got crying, lobster kids tonight. The lure of the pool was just too irresitable and now they're paying the price. I even used the vinegar on them. Gah! Hope yours are okay.
UGH! Lobster kids.
Luckily, mine are ok. I coated them with sunscreen before they came over, and even at that, they didn't start until about 2pm. Your kids I'm sure had hours on them. I hope they feel better soon though. Sunburns are rotten!!
I've been down that road and back. I found it was taking over my life and I wasn't actually living as much. I've fallen way behind in online things. I don't read blogs of people I don't know well much anymore. I've had to let it go. I kept finding that there was SO much interesting stuff that there was no limit to how much time I could spend looking at and reading it all. I decided to just cut it out almost completely. I'm also in a transitional time, so that helps. When I'm feeling all crafty, I tend to look for others ideas more which sucks me in.
Wow, that was a ramble...
I am with Malisa. I can't read people's I don't know or I as you say "watch my kids starve". Good luck!
