I’m back to blogging and I hope nothing gets in my way to stop it again. It was for a good cause.
I stayed at home a few days before Christmas, before New Years Eve and today with my family. I decided to try to stay away from the computer to spend as much time as possible with my family. I did check my emails, some twittering but almost no blogging.
On Sunday my husband told me it was his saddest Christmas. He said he felt I was very distant from him, this was the first time he talked about his feelings. This is not something new, for quite a while distance has been installing itself between us. We both work full time, two kids, a house to take care, cleaning, laundry, car wash, when it comes the end of the day, we are exhausted. He’s not very romantic either so, there are no “close” moments while we’re around the house. I admit that this is also my fault, I’m always tired and at night, instead of watching a movie or going to bed at the same time he does, I blog.
Blog is my escape, is something I love to do but I have little time to do it. During the day I’m at work and if I have a busy day I’m not able to blog so at night, when the kids are asleep is the only time I have to do it.
I feel that I really need to change things around, I had my maps and schedules programmed for this afternoon but due to some news I received this morning (I’ll post about that in another post) my afternoon was ruined, but…it was for a good cause. So no blogging schedule, no maps for school activities, no nothing.
I can’t change my work schedule, cook, laundry must be done, cleaning also (maybe I can afford some day this year to ask someone to do it for me) so blogging is the only schedule I might be able to change. Instead of blogging at night, I can get up earlier in the morning, but this cold weather doesn’t help and as the house is always too cold I always give up getting up earlier.
I don’t want to give up blogging, it’s not on my plans. Soon, in a few days, my blogspot blog will be discontinued and this one will be the family blog for real…my updates are already being done here. Without the blogspot blog I will have three blogs to maintain. I expect to do a To-Write-List for two of them so that I keep my line of blogging always with a wide variety of interesting subjects.
I wish I could keep everybody happy, my kids, my husband and myself. The “myself” hasn’t be happy for quite a while since I don’t have the life I wanted to (in several aspects) and I really needed to have some outside help with the cleaning, ironing, etc.. I’m going to make all the efforts to get out of this “not so happy” phase, I hope the nutritional supplements I’m taking and some “will” from”myself” will do the trick.
