Tonight I had a come to God with myself and a few comments made on my blog made me realize that my life has been a little too consumed by this blog. My life is more than a blog, than this blog. I will be fulfilling my commitments because that is who I am, but I have let these commitments take a hold of me more than I had intended. My blog was meant to be my release, my space, and now my space has been damaged. I let too many things, people, and events consume me personally with my life and my time. I am taking time to re-evaluate, you can email me if you need. As I said I will be fulfilling commitments and obligations. My regards until we meet again.

You will be missed friend…. does this mean twitter too???? Take the time you need, I completely understand what you're saying.
Here's to finding your love for the gift of blog again!
Love ya sista!
Karie I hope you dont leave Twitter anytime soon. I would miss you there alot, youre fun to tweet with and I hope you come back to your blog again when you feel you are ready. I like the pictures on Wednesday, and even though I might not always comment on your blog, I like reading it. Hugs!
It is important to take these breaks once in a while and re-evaulate where the heck we are in life! I hope you can find a good balance Karie!
I'm new to this blog but I just wanted to say you have a great sense of humour and your posts and tweets always make me smile or laugh. I'm sorry a few are ruining this for you.
I will miss visiting you. I decided to start blogging after talking to a very successful blogger who had many followers and contests and comments. I wanted to be that blogger! Then I saw some hateful comments on her blog and she had to have comment moderation and finally switched to a private blog – ugh! Some people are just really rude when they get to hide behind their computer screens. I have been blogging regularly for about 2 years and have a few faithful family members that stop by but that is fine with me. I blog for them, my family, and I blog most importantly for my girls so that they will know me and know what life was like when they were young. I hope that you can find the love again and come back and join us. You are hilariously funny, intelligent, and it has been a joy to "get to know you" through the internet. Take care mama!
Will miss your funny comments.!
I love you my love… I'm here if you need me, you know where to find me… Hugs and big, sloppy, wet kisses to you…
Wha huh? I'm totally in shock! You know where to find me and I'm attached to my computer and phone so I'll always be around. I hope you regroup and come back soon. Your presence will be missed. A LOT!
Karie (hugs)…please do take a much needed break, but please hang on to your blog even if it just stands still. You might want to come back, and if so, you will be happy to still have it. At least think about that okay?
Will you still be on Skype? I will miss you and am so sad.
Shocked too – but I still lurve you bebe. You do your thing, take care of things and your family and yourSELF. You will be missed while you are gone though. Keeping you in my thoughts and prayers.
XOXO
This is bullshit. You made blogging better.
Here's to finding your blog love again…I know exactly what you mean!
Totally feelin where you're coming from and I applaud your honesty and your stepping back. Til we see and hear from you again, much love
I think I know where you're coming from. Last night I had a dream about my blog. When I woke up I was pretty disturbed that my blog is taking over my life to the point that I'm dreaming about it! I told my husband just this morning that I really need to decide what direction I'm going in regards to blogging, work, whatever.
I hope you figure out your direction soon.
You will be missed! I hope you come back soon as I love reading the blog and hearing about life.
Ahhhh my dear AZ girl! I hope you take the time you need to regroup and if you need someone to vent to Im here!
Girlfriend!! Selfish me is a little sad:( Hope you find your happy. You know where to come if you want to rant, vent or hear how fabulous you are. Hugs!
I think this is wonderful! *hug* I honestly don't know how you find the time and energy to post seemingly multiple times a day. You deserve a moment of chill.
Hey Karie,
Totally understand where you are coming from but i'll miss ya. You are one of the nicest most sincere people I have ever had the pleasure of getting to know over the internet. Good luck with your family.
Until we tweet again.
Tim
I sent you an email…
I guess I've been MIA lately, and didn't know you were taking a bloggy break, I'll miss you chick!
Hi, I really think your blog it is beautiful. I love the style and the pictures. Very interesting to read too. I hope to return very soon. Hope you are having a nice weekend. Cheers, Lia
You can bet your butt that I'll be e-mailing you lady :)Sometimes it's good to step back for a little while though and just take care of you and those you are responsible for.
