Well, I've decided to go cold turkey--quit bloggin' for the time being...  I'm not sure for how long, but I need to focus on my daughter and the things going on in my life. I will, however, still be by to visit all my favorite blogs, and if and when I decide to pick the blog back up, I'll be sure to let you all know. 

Thank you so much for all the comments and bloggy love along the way!  I'll be seeing you around the blogosphere!

Do what you gotta do, girl. Priorities. Remember to make some time for yourself.

I totally understand, Nicole - I was wondering how you were able to do it all, especially with house hunting thrown in to the usual mix! :) Your witty blogging will definitely be missed! We'll all be here if/when you decide to pick it up again. ;) Family definitely comes first! ((HUGZ!!))

I just want to let you know that you commented on my Kid Safe Ink Tattoo Post. And I JUST turned it into a contest. And I gave you an "extra entry". Your first comment counts as an entry too. And you can enter more, of course.

Nooooooooooooo don't go!!

Sigh. I understand, I really do. You will be missed. Please come back soon! I'll never forget your eggplant man. Enjoy your time with your daughter. If Junior didn't go to bed at 7:30 and leave me with my evenings somewhat free I'd do the same thing.

Ciao!!

I'll miss the blog... I know how hard it is to keep up with it all. I have decided to blog when I have time and not worry about it so much. I usually do it when my kids are napping or asleep at night. It's my me time.

 

Nicole

Yes, Frogmama, you're eggplant story is forever etched in my mind as well.... :)

If only I could get Katie on a regular schedule--but because daddy gets home from work a little later, she stays up a little later--it really is hard to fit it all in--but hopefully, soon enough, I'll be able to squeeze in a little more "me" time...

Thanks again! *heart* Nicole

Hi Nicole,
Enjoy your time with your precious daughter Kate and hubby. I hope you make some time for yourself too. I wish you all the best in everything you do. Take good care! :-)

I can understand, totally. This takes a bunch of time and effort. I am guessing you'll be back and when you are, I'll come see what's happening. :)

p.s. ribit, ribit. That means goodbye for now in frog.

Best of wishes, I'll miss reading your blog, but of course I totally understand. Enjoy your time with your family, and don't be a complete stranger :)

If you get that time for yourself that you are looking for, I recommend a spa. You can pick up blogging after your spa visit (you can tell where my thoughts are today).

Oh no, I'm sorry to hear that. I just started reading you. It wouldn't hurt to be a part time blogger would it, late night blogging, naptime blogging. ;) I'm kidding, take all the time you need. I'll still keep your button up, cause alligators are cool.

Still looking at this? Just wondering what you're up to. How in the world did you just stop?

Faithful readers! Hello! I'm still hangin' around--just keeping busy with the whole house thing... We finally found a home, made an offer on it, and we are on the path to new-home-ownership (yay!) Scott's parents are headed to the desert for a month--and after that we should be settled in--I'm planning to pick the blog back up then... I will be by your blogs to let you know when that is for sure! Take care!

You have been missed - CONGRATS on the new home - and enjoy Scott's parents visit! :) So glad to hear things are going well and that you might pick back up in a month-ish or so... :) We'll be anxiously awaiting your return!! :) ((HUGZ!!))

Missed you. Just dropped by to see how things are going. I hope everything is going well for you and yours.

I know you've heard about all the Today.com and Entrecard changes by now. I started a second blog:
http://movieconnoisseur.blogspot.com. I hope you'll check it out one day. I'm adding your button on that site as well.

Hello to all--still alive and kicking!

This housing market is a real bummer--we've put offers on several homes, and for whatever reasons, we still haven't made it stick. Too many foreclosures and short sales (sad). We just put on offer on a beautiful home in a lovely community outside of Phoenix--I hope that this time we get it!

Grandma and Papa have been here for a month--they leave today. The load will certainly lighten up, and I'll have some time to stop by and visit all my favorites--miss ya! Nicole
