To Blog Or Not To Blog?

With the new year right around the corner I am taking some time to pray about what my focus should be for 2014.  I haven't been blogging much lately and I'm wondering if I just need to give it up all together.

Originally when I started blogging I was a stay at home wife and wanted to share a glimpse of my life to family and friends as well as have a place to store favorite recipes, projects and memories.
Now my life is very different and I find myself often feeling overwhelmed. 

What I've been learning and realizing is that part of God's unique plan in a husband and wife relationship is balance.  Mike balanced me out, his strong points were my weaknesses, so we completed each other very well.  Each day that goes by without Mike in my life, I realize all the more how blessed I was to have him as my husband.

Now that I am working full time and trying to learn something totally new at work I haven't really had the time or energy to dedicate to blogging.  However, some very special people in my life, like my Grandma and Aunts, read my blog (not so sure any more since I haven't blogged about much lately) and I don't want to just give up that connection.

So for the next few days as we bring another year to a close I'll be praying for God to show me how I should spend my time in 2014.

Glad you decided to blog. But, don't stress over it. Simplify wherever. You work full-time+!
I have just reviewed five years of my blog. Great reflective exercise.
You will have your journey to look back on in years to come.
