I don't blame you at all for feeling this...Ugh. I don't blame you at all for feeling this way. I think about it frequently. But then I come back to these nagging things:<br /><br />1- all the nice homesteading/dreaming/farming folk that I've developed relationships with<br /><br />2- that it's so nice to look back on my own blog and see where I've come from<br /><br />3- that my blog (hopefully) provides encouragement for others to go out there, move away from the city perhaps, and become acquainted with a slower pace of life<br /><br />4- that I probably won't do this forever because someday I'll have children and possibly question whether I want their lives to be arbitrarily shared with the rest of the internet world (...still thinking about that one) SO I should enjoy it now while it lasts<br /><br />5- the internet is most likely going to change a lot in my lifetime and right now it's pretty good. I can see it getting much more restrictive so while it's decent I should make use of it. <br /><br />...but yeah, those are all excuses and I still battle with wanting to continue or not. Letting summer reality take days away from blogging is the way to go.<br /><br />long rant. sorry. ;)mckenziehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02617910290820472508noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6281069965301856533.post-60693019991429878082011-05-20T13:31:45.696-04:002011-05-20T13:31:45.696-04:00I have these same sentiments and struggle with it ...I have these same sentiments and struggle with it everyday :/ I try to keep a nice balance between the two, but it's hard to do so sometimes. I love your blog, btw.

I know where you are coming...Goodbye and good luck! I know where you are coming from as I've been there myself. It was not a good way to live my life and I wasn't living it for myself any more and found myself overlooking the little things in every day life that made things personally special. I was starting to slip into the trap of thinking how things would look on the blog before thinking for myself first. So I stopped my old blog, but I missed it, so started a new one, just for me. It's my diary of daily life and I only told a handful of 'bloggy' friends about it. Nobody in real life. Only about three people look at it, but it's my own little slice of the internet where I couldn't be happier. xoteacakebiscuithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10512632048305150056noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6281069965301856533.post-34495141811613729742011-02-21T17:27:11.459-05:002011-02-21T17:27:11.459-05:00darling, i too will miss the blog. but i am so hap...darling, i too will miss the blog. but i am so happy you are making this decision for YOU. and i would love to share stories the best way--send me your address and i'll start the letter exchange. love you always, mollsMollynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6281069965301856533.post-27377737879954984922011-02-19T20:21:54.935-05:002011-02-19T20:21:54.935-05:00dear kate
