Blog Update - It May Be a Little Quiet

Just an update on the blog and where things are going.

It may be a little quiet on here for a while. For three weeks (including this week), I am on work experience, I then have a week off, and then I start again. By the time I get home, eat, and get myself settled, I am absolutely shattered. I am left with only a few hours for myself - to watch TV, catch up with the family, read (though, of course, I read during my breaks :) ), etc. I do check and catch up on email, but my energy levels are low and I can't focus well, so there may be fewer posts from me for a while. I'd rather there be less posts on my blog than crappy ones because I can't concentrate. When the weekend comes round and I have more time, I plan to schedule some posts so there will be something, but don't expect too much. Hopefully I'll soon get used to the routine, will feel less tired, and will be able to do more, but just in case I don't, I thought I should let you know.

See you on the other side! :)

(I am in deep admiration for those of you who have a full time job and find the time to blog. I am in complete and utter awe of those with a full time job AND children, and find the time to blog. You people are amazing!)

  2. Ah, yes, but you have a lot of reading for work to do yourself, so your quiet times are understandable.

    Yes, yay for work experience! Having such a good time! :)

    Like you I have no idea how people cope with blogging when they have full time work & family committments, they must be far better at time management than I am lol

  11. I don't know how those peeps with kiddie winkls do it either. They have some serious stamina.

    Enjoy your work experience.

  12. Vivienne - I am have a brilliant time! Not only is it interesting, but it's FUN! Really, I'm really enjoying it! :) I don't know if you'll hear much about it - there's some things I can't talk about, so I'm thinking not to talk about very much at all, just to be on the safe side.

    Becky - I know! They're brilliant! I am enjoying it, thank you! :)

  13. It is hard work with a job and a family (I am a single parent) to fit blogging in so sometimes I have to compromise and it's the blog reading that has to wait. It is manageable though :-)

  14. I have been one of your followers for ages, but I just noticed that my little bookworm wasn't showing and when I clicked on sign in it brought the 'join this blog' page up. Well I joined again but maybe I'm on your list twice now? I dont know what happened there.

  15. Well I think you're fantastic! :)
    That is very odd, but I wouldn't worry about it! :) You see the posts, so it doesn't really matter to me if the number was one less than it should be, but thank you!
