As I told a friend yesterday, it is the perfect antidote to a day full of serious adult concerns, you know?<br /><br />Lynne: I think that's exactly right. It's just a matter of time.<br /><br />Nancy: Aww, thanks! I don't plan to go anywhere. :)<br /><br />Ms Moon: I think "Mandy" is code for marijuana, and "Charlie" is code for cocaine. That's how I interpret that sticker. I can't see myself ever hiring a cleaner. I'm too much of a control freak about my house -- I like taking care of it my way, you know? (And fortunately Dave is fine with that!)<br /><br />Bug: I may find a way to work blogs into my down time at work. So far there hasn't been much down time, though!<br /><br />Reya: Yes, the little things! I wholeheartedly agree.<br /><br />Angella: Well, I'm not quite to the point of wanting to stop or take a break, so I think I'll be around for a while! Thanks for the kind words. It's nice to feel appreciated. I love our little blog community because we all become part of each other's routines, which is pretty great! :)Steve Reedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11684120060438252945noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5123631695572626256.post-31984271725134025042013-08-21T22:02:25.734+01:002013-08-21T22:02:25.734+01:00A cleaner once a week could work.

Then all you really have to do is tidy up. <br /><br />I love the signs. <br /><br />But you know, when you took a break from blogging before, I was kind of flummoxed by how very much I missed you, so I know more that some of your newer readers what a void you would leave in the blogosphere. <br /><br />Of course you will do what works for you and Dave. I say watch Green Acres; that half hour is sacred if you both enjoy it! Post photos when you can't summon the words.<br /><br />Still, if you did take a blog break, I'd just wait faithfully like Olga does for you to return.

I don't enjoy it at all and I'm TERRIBLE at it. <br /><br />I read blogs at work because that helps keep me sane. When I first started in this job there was SO MUCH down time I was losing my mind (not to blow my own horn, but I swear it took me less than half as much time to do what my predecessor did!). So I started reading blogs, and then after a while I started writing my own.

It's important to have at least a half an hour a day to let it all just go and that show was actually incredibly clever in a bizarre way. Kinda trippy, in fact.<br />Could y'all hire a cleaner to come in every week or every two weeks? That would make SO much difference. And is my own fantasy for myself.Ms. Moonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09776404747858099919noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5123631695572626256.post-64397973730345268122013-08-21T12:46:24.553+01:002013-08-21T12:46:24.553+01:00You'll prioritize, and all that's good and...You'll prioritize, and all that's good and necessary will find its way into your routine.
