I'm retiring.

Just like Oprah!

I am shutting this thing down come January.

I have gotten too busy to keep up with posting, and then I feel guilty.
I don't like guilty.
It makes me eat Oreos.

It has been a good few years, and I have loved reading your comments!
Thank you for your friendship and support, and for laughing with me when I thought I was going to crack.

May 2010 bring less stress to us all!

Love you my friend!

I'm so sad. Your blog always made me feel so NORMAL. You always say what I wish I could say and how I feel about life. I understand the stress. (hence no christmas cards this year) but I'm really going to miss reading your posts. It always put a smile on my face.

oh I'm so sad to hear that!! I was hoping "I'm retiring" meant from being a mom or something and not retiring from the blog. I guess you have your prioritites straight. :) I will so miss the laughs! Have a great 2010!

No..no...no!!! You can't!! Come on...

I volunteer to come do your laundry and clean your house!! You gotta keep blogging!

Melanie said...

I am so sad that you are stopping your blog. I love your humor and will miss it a lot. I understand why you are stopping...it is a lot of work. I just started blogging and I can see that you have to plan it out and it is time consuming. I hope to see you on FB. Don't stop that.

That is just lame! Look at all of your fellow followers and groupies -
how can you let them down? don't tell me that five kids is too much work - I know it all to well - just start blogging around 2-3 in the morning and than on top of no sleep {like me} you won't feel guilty about blogging!
Love you girl!
