I've made a decision that I have been vacillating
over for a while. I have decided to turn off the comments section of my blog.
It seems I am blogging less and less. There are lots of reasons for this, but
mostly they narrow down to time management.
There has been a
slow moving trend in the blogging world. People are using Instagram more and
blogging less and it has led to fewer posts and less and less interaction
between my readers and me. I think readership is down and then of course
comments have dwindled and to be honest, that made me sad. I loved reading your
comments and I prided myself on always responding to every comment. I'll admit
I have been guilty of not reading as many blogs as I used to. I seem to scroll
for content and then I usually don't comment, either. Guilty as changed!
When I originally
started blogging, it was for me, as a permanent record of my creativity, travels
and family life. I will continue to blog for that very reason. I cannot tell you how many timnes I have referred to my blog to look something up or to find a photo or a recipe. It's a great source of reference for me.
I am still
planning on blogging and now I might even pick up the pace a little more, after
the Christmas holidays wind down.
So the things that
started me blogging...
TRAVEL
QUILTING
BAG MAKING
FLOWER ARRANGING
GARMENT MAKING
MARTHA STEWART LABRADOODLE
KNITTING
GARDENING
COOKING, BAKING AND CANNING
FAMILY LIFE
I'll still be blogging about all these things.
I hope you will continue to read my blog and if you want to comment or have a question you can always email me or leave a comment on Instagram, because it seems that is an easier medium to communicate quickly.
THANKS FOR STOPPING BY!
