Blogger Burnout

Have you ever had times in your life when you were doing a ton of things, but you weren't doing many of them well? The ole cliche "Jack of all trades, master of none" comes to mind. You may have noticed a decrease in the amount of posts and giveaways in the last couple weeks. Honest answer - I'm pooped, my house is a dirty mess, and I keep adding tons of additional responsibilities on top of my already busy life as a wife and mother. Now don't get me wrong - they are all things I enjoy (volunteering at my church, working with my Pampered Chef business, spending time with my MOPS group), but I've been running a million miles a minute for the last couple weeks and I needed a little bit of a breather, and I'm afraid Mommy's Minute has been an easier place to cut back.

I hope you'll stick with me. I will continue to do my best to round up some great reviews and giveaways, but there may be a few dry spells here and there. It takes a lot of work to review products and promote giveaways, and although I absolutely LOVE doing it, my family needs to come first. I've been neglecting my family at times to help build Mommy's Minute into a site I hope you enjoy visiting.

I'm a real mom - with real time constraints. Most of my days are spent calming a toddler, wiping boogers, and figuring out what's for dinner. I wanted to let you know that you guys are important to me. I am so blessed to have gotten to know some of you guys through forums, and e-mails. I am so thankful that God has given me a "voice" and a channel to communicate my struggles and His strength.

I'm not giving up. I'm not throwing in the towel, but I may lie low for just a little while so that I can regroup and recharge and come back better than ever!
