My Blog Has Abandonment Issues!

My wee little blog is feeling very lonely and unloved after I just abandoned it on a whim last week. I have to apologise to my regular readers, as the children were off for half term and the week just got crazier and crazier. We were out every day doing something and not returning until late and in the end something had to go and unfortunately my blogging time was the first casualty, followed closely by any reading time. I have barely picked up a book all week as I have been far too tired. So this week I promise you I will try and return to normal service, after I have finished tidying the house which looks like a tornado swept through it, refill my fridge and food cupboards, which are most definitely bare and climb the ironing mountain and reduce it to just a little rubble.

I am going to set my Google reader to zero, so if there are any really important posts I should have seen then please do let me know. If I start looking back through the 1000 posts I know I will never catch up again.

I am pleased to be back and have lots of photos to show you as the week goes on, as well as reviews.

TTFN.

  4. I know the feeling! My life has been crazy lately too and I had to use the mark all as read button. Take your time - we'll be here when you get back.

  5. Zero might be a good idea, 1000 is too daunting

  9. Hi Viv! Blogger is finally letting me comment again, yay! Nothing much has been happening on my blog this week, just BEA recaps, but I *am* holding an international giveaway for the BEA ARCs that are not good matches for me, so that would be the only post I'd point you to: http://zenleaf.blogspot.com/2010/06/sunday-salon-books-books-and-more-books.html

  11. Oh sometimes setting the google reader to 0 is the best thing. It's hard to miss out on posts but blogging is supposed to be fun and I hate being stressed out about that. Hope you are having a great start of the week! Looking forward to photos and reviews :)

  13. That's all right, Viv! I'm glad you're back in service again (LOL!) and it's good to see. I'm getting busier and busier too. My relocation to another state (Penang) is coming up next week--I've just finalized on my apartment there--so it's going to be crazy. Will try to manage the best I can. I think that's what we all do. :D

  14. Just want to pop a little apology in here too that I haven't been commenting here recently because OpenID is a big stupid Fail. It wasn't working on anyone's blog for ages so I couldn't leave any comments. I felt so bad. :(
