I’m dying to blog tonight, . . . but I just don’t feel like it.

Sometimes a night off is a good thing.
Raise your hand if you’ve been there.

    it’s like taking that much needed day off from running or riding, whether we think we should or not.

    Good for head, hand and heart…

    Exactly Liz!

    I used to drive myself all the time; gotta do this, gotta finish that, there’s not enough time in the world to do everything I wanted to do, yadda yadda yadda…until I found myself running dry.

    Then I slowed down, allowed myself to just be and do whatever. Against the better beliefs of my go-getter half, my inspiration actually started returning and I was back to doing good work again.

    I just took about 8 days off from anything to do with blogging and it was fantastic. I’m back now and enjoying it again :) Highly recommended.

    Yes, I can understand the feeling. There have been days when I don’t feel like writing. Mike has taught me that I should post Monday through Friday. I try to do 2 posts. I have to admit that I let down some last week and I was late with a post for one day this week. I want to make quality posts that fit the subject of my blog. Sometimes it gets hard.

    Hi Elizabeth,
    Some days we don’t have the experiences or the energy to write a quality post twice. So do we write or do we not? I think our readers don’t mind if we take a break once in a while. :)
