I have lots of people who rely on me, you are probably the same. Different people relying on you, for different reasons......you find yourself wearing many different hats.
And because so many people rely on me, I have found myself to be juggling lots of different balls. They are all different shapes and sizes, some are very heavy, some of very light, some colourful, some downright ugly......at the moment though, I feel I'm juggling too many.
I'm feeling a little out of balance, scared of dropping one.
And so, for the time being, because it's so precious to me, I'm going to wrap this little blog of mine, in some soft tissue paper and pop it somewhere very, very safe.
I hope when I come back to find it, you will still be here.
Bye For Now,
Ada :) xxx
Hello lovely Ada. I really hope that by wrapping up this precious space you have created that we all love to visit so much, you find some balance to give and care for those who need it, including yourself. Needless to say we will all still be here and I will miss seeing you around blogland. Take care of yourself and be kind to yourself. Much love xoxo
ReplyDeleteLovely image, Ada! Wrap this blog up carefully and take as long as you need. Everybody needs a blogging break from time to time. We'll be here when you choose to return.
ReplyDeleteTake care. x
ReplyDeleteI'm sure we'll still be here - I shall be :)

~ We will dear, Ada Bea...
ReplyDeleteJust take care and don't be away to long....
Sending hugs and thoughts...

Sweet Ada, you take care and your time with all your juggling, sending love and hugs and we'll be here when you come back xox Penny
ReplyDeleteHugs to you Ada. I hope things calm down for you soon, and you get some "me" time - it's so important. Of course the blog can wait - and we will all still be here. xxx
ReplyDeleteOh, I do know the feeling and think it's very wise of you to give yourself a little bit of breathing space.
ReplyDeleteDon't worry, we're not going anywhere.
Take care, Heather x
Blogging is a large ball of time so hope you feel the benefit...I'll still be here as I haven't got many balls now! Just don't forget where you've put it! xx
ReplyDeleteTruly Ada, I know the feeling. I will be here when you get back, and I am sure that everyone else will be here too. I hope that you are able to rehome some of your "hats" or juggle them off somewhere else if that is possible. It is hard when these things come, and I hope that it will pass for you and that things will be good in the end. As lots of lovely people have told me recently, take care of yourself, big hugs and lots of love. I can also recommend lots of hot chocolate, especially the peppermint one that I just discovered. Thinking of you. xx
ReplyDeleteSometimes balls are more important than blogs! BUT remember even the best juggler has a limit to how many balls he can hold at once ... Don't overdo do it - most things really can wait ...
ReplyDeleteTake care.

Relax and enjoy your blog break, safe in the knowledge that we will all be here when you return, and we will be delighted to hear from you. Lots of love, Rachel xxx

Take the time you need, we'll be here, i hope you are able to find your balance, x
ReplyDeleteOf course, take your time, sometimes life gets very busy indeed xx
ReplyDeleteOh Ada. I really do know what you mean. Sometimes the motherhood gig is a little more all consuming than one expected. It's the sub categories of all the shades of their day through school and friends and sports and music and emotional turmoils and their needs and YOUR needs!!!! Take some time and be kind to yourself, dear Ada. x
ReplyDeleteHave a well deserved rest. We will miss you, but will appreciate you all the more when you are back to blogging!
ReplyDeleteI do love visiting your space/place and have so much respect for you, truly.
ReplyDeleteFor whatever it is worth, I do say take care of what needs to be taken care of...your family, friends and especially your own self. It is a difficult balance every day. And, here I am...........old enough to be most bloggers grandmama, and still trying to do it all at times....just crazy!
Wishing you comfort, peace and all things that bring you joy.
I'll be, for sure!!!!
ReplyDeleteTake care Ada, xxxxxxx Ale
Sometimes you just have to do that for a while. Priorities change and life is what matters at the end of the day. Enjoy your break. Everyone will still be here.
ReplyDeleteTake care of yourself Ada. Will still be here when you are ready to return. Jacqui xox
ReplyDeleteOh Ada, so sorry ... but something has to give and if having a break from blogging gives you valuable time and space then we all understand, I just hope you come out of your wrappings soon (having one less thing to worry about can work wonders) ... and of course we will all still be here, as you all were for me.
ReplyDeleteMuch love, Claire xxx
Good wishes to you and your family. x
ReplyDeletedo hope you are feeling stronger soon Ada and we will all look forward to your return, in case we do not hear from you before 2014 have a lovely time with the family over Christmas and best wishes to you all.
ReplyDeleteThat is such a lovely analogy! X Annie
ReplyDeleteDear Ada, you must take some time out to get the balance of your life back. We will be waiting to read you again, and I hope you will occasionally take a few minutes to pop over and see some of us. It is easy to get so far removed from blogging that it becomes a foreign country - don't let that happen, I would miss you if you dropped off the edge! But hoping you will feel better for spreading yourself less thinly, and soon be back among us. Much love, Lynnexxxx
ReplyDeleteHave a happy Christmas Ada, see you soon. And remember its your Blog you post when you want and have the time

Hey Ada, I've been away for a few months and now when I come and visit, you're going into hibernation for a while..........blogging eats into our spare time and while it's fun and great friendships formed we've still got to do the day to day things......
ReplyDeleteI hope you find the break gives you back the balance you need. Take care of yourself, wish I could package up some of our blue sky and warm temps to send you.........I'll go and have a little mooch around and catch up on missed posts.
Claire x

ReplyDeleteoooosh! so glad i read the above post first! love you Ada, we will always be here xxxxx
