Balancing Life
This weekend I made a decision to post less here on eLuckypacket.
My original intention with this site was to give you something sweet and unexpected every day, Monday to Friday. But I have to tell you, it’s not sustainable.
I recently started a new job and am working this year to find better balance in my life. Working full-time with a small child? Quite the juggling act. And our little family? It’s strong as an ostrich’s egg, but that doesn’t mean I can neglect it at all. Dave and Tau really deserve my best.
So I have decided to post two or three times a week for now, and hopefully less will be more in terms of quality for you as readers. And perhaps, if this site takes off, we’ll have such a full group of voices that I’ll have to open it up to eLuckypacketers to post from all over the world!
But for now — starting tomorrow — you’ll find me posting Monday, Wednesday, Fridayish, OK?
Thanks for understanding — ’til tomorrow then!

Sue — You have been doing a great job! I’m sure you will have plenty of “guest writers” soon enough.

I quite understand. I’m struggling to keep up with my blogs daily too.

I enjoy your blog and I really don’t think it’s necessary to post daily. Some of the best blogs I read do not post regularly. I think you’re doing a great job - a luckypackets a special treat not a daily indulgence!

Thanks so much — and Lynda you’re right about luckypackets being a treat instead of a daily staple!

That makes sense….I’m lost in admiration at how you fit everything into your day.
