Hard Decision Made


After a lot of thinking, I have decided to stop reviewing for right now on any regular type of basis.  I love doing this, but there is more than a lot happening in my family and my life.  I feel I am not giving good quality reviews right now, even when I do get one up on here.  Instead of disappointing my followers with poorly written reviews that don't help at all when deciding if you wish to read a book or not, I have decided to not have any "deadlines" on here for now.  I appreciate all of your support and followings, which is why I felt I owed you all some sort of explanation for my absence on here the last while.

In a very condensed nut shell...my health is still rocky at best; I have family members whose health is not that great right now either, which has required more of my time, emotions, and energy than I thought I even had to give; I have a friend who is dealing with some devastating news and situations that needs my support as much as she has been giving me hers; I have family situations that are less than perfect that are having to be dealt with; I have gone back to college again; I am still Scoutmaster of my son's Boy 
Scout Troop; AND I still am trying to start and succeed in my crafting sales to friends and family, hoping to eventually move up to selling as a business.

I am hoping to come back to regular scheduled reviews in the new year.  Plus this time I plan to start out slow and steady instead of going all crazy and trying to review every book right away and reviewing so many in a month.  I realize that, reading/reviewing 10 or more books a month every month simply will not be possible, at least not for some time.  I plan to sign up for some reading challenges again as they appear for next year too.  I plan to limit them, no matter how much I wish to do them all.  ;-)  That way I feel like I have obtainable goals next year.  

So I don't plan to leave, I just plan to take a break and then to ease myself back into the reading/reviewing pool instead of just cannonball jumping in.  :-)  Success is my plan again with this blog, I just have to get my "life train" back on the rails and in control first before I start adding back on my "pleasure coaches" and making my train longer again and still on track.  I love what I do here, so I WILL be back!!!  I may do a few posts on here simply updating on where my progress is too.  

Thanks so much to all of you for sticking with me!  I love and appreciate every follower I have!
