In reply to Heather. @Heather: Yeah, it's amazing how all that alone sucks up more time than you think. Your blog is doing well though; looks like it's paying off! =)

Girl, I feel you. When I was working full time, I was obsessed with my health and weight and worked out all the time. Once I quit my job to move to Shanghai with my husband, I thought I’d continue to exercise as before. But then I started my blog, and slowly it started to suck up all my time. I’ve gone up a pants size since then, and strangely I don’t mind so much. I keep telling myself I need to find more balance, but then just stay online all day editing photos and reading and commenting on other people’s blogs. But I don’t have any stress and I’m pretty darn happy so I guess it’s not so bad.

@Jessica: Yeah , I can imagine that of you and your blog too because you hit those personal moments, where you let the reader inside a little more. It’s so easy to feel it all blur between whether ‘you are your blog’ or ‘your blog is you.’

I sometimes feel addicted too. It is my baby, and the only one I know I’ll have for A WHILE.

I also feel like my body sacrifices. It’s a constant battle between…finish a post or go to the gym. Finding the balance in it all is so difficult!

In reply to BH. @Matt/BH: Taking time away -completely away- can help replenish your energies.

In reply to Sandals (@SandalsDownUnda).

@Sandals: Yeah, hehe… writing takes a long time and then there’s adding photos. There are bloggers who can pop them out, but if you’re not one of those, it gets down to finding ways to being more efficient in your process and time. Good luck! 😉

This is so funny I found myself laughing out loud in several places. However, the post rings true to me too, since I’m also a solo traveler with a baby, my blog. But I may not be as good a “mother” to it as you, since more often than not, I neglect to feed it (posts once a week) and don’t do much to make it grow (find subscribers). I also don’t want to find a blog husband (this baby is mine!). LOL Anyway, great post Christine!

When Im blogging I go outside every couple hours. Plus every couple weeks I do a day without laptop, tv or mobile.
