I totally get where you're coming from. Blogging is so much fun and it can take so much work, especially with reading books on time and posting about them. I don't participate in any book tours or request ARCs because I want to enjoy reading and blogging.<br /><br />I do keep a physical journal. I used to have a bullet journal. I decided I wanted something more detailed about what was going on in my life. I've only been doing it for a few months, though, and I haven't shared anything on my blog yet.Jenni Elysehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08403700912436098391noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8572136475100574200.post-5267618510621569122022-09-26T12:55:27.347-05:002022-09-26T12:55:27.347-05:00Recognising when you need a break is so hard to do...Recognising when you need a break is so hard to do though - glad it helped and you're feeling better for itBlakehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07808268471520155800noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8572136475100574200.post-24081312371137387252022-09-26T10:57:06.854-05:002022-09-26T10:57:06.854-05:00Welcome back to the blogging community!
