I don't know why.... I don't know how.... but somewhere along the way, I have fallen out of love with my blog. And blogging in general.
I wanted to carry it on, to keep writing posts, anecdotes, facts about our daily lives now - because I print an Annual book of The Weavers Nest, and its something that I'd like to keep doing. But really... I am finding even that hard to do. I could blame it on being busy - and busy I am. But I also know - if I really wanted to, I would MAKE time for it.
I don't know if I will get the urge to blog again or not.... or if I should just push through and keep going. Or call it a day?
All my blog buddies who have stopped blogging - either permanently or temporarily, what is your advice? Did you get the urge to blog again, or when you stopped was that it? Dead and buried.
I apologise for not keeping up with your all blogs etc... like I said, days go by without me switching on the laptop. I have not fallen out of love with you... just blogging in general. I hope to get over this hiccup soon.
I miss your blogs!

Think carefully before you quit your blog altogether. I quit mine for a couple of years and now that I've started blogging again I'm struggling to get any kind of following and weirdly, although I vowed I blogged for myself and myself alone, I'm finding it hard going not having that interaction with followers. If I had to do it over, I wouldn't have taken that formal step of shutting down the blog, I'd have simply blogged less and only when I felt like it.

@ Gill, yeah I hear you because I am such a rubbish blogger and keeping up with things I have lost touch completely with your blog and I used to love it.
@ Kirsty - just do it when you feel like it - dont shut it down and hey maybe get a new look by someone like Ness and that will probably inject some excitement for you xxx

I have slowed down a lot, and feel slightly guilty that I am not blogging more, but like that fact that it is still there if I want / need to again.

:-(
Dont shut it down...keep it up, and when you feel like it, do it, if not dont. Dont put pressure on yourself, i think that will make it worse for you...just go with the flow :-)

I really try to blog. I miss it. I love to go back and 'relive' the moments captured there! I still try every now and then!
I blame facebook for sucking up all my time!

I've kinda stopped blogging on my personal blog. Business, family and life in general keeps me too busy. I'm hoping that next year I'll find the time and the "urge".
