But I’m not.
Last weekend, I was as we went on vacation, I was considering whether it was all worth it. Putting on a blog hop is no joke, and especially a blog hop like ours where we visit every single post each week. If you didn’t know, my blogging friend and co-host has been on sabbatical for personal reasons for the last couple of weeks, which put all the work on me. I was amazed at how much work it was weekly, just for one person to carry ~ how many things and pieces you have to put together to pull it off each week, especially if you have multiple people.
So, I really considered not returning from the vacation, talking to my co-host and calling it a day, especially since I don’t know how long her sabbatical will be.
That’s when I know that God is in control, because these were the comments that I got that day:
I don’t know what you all get out of our work each week, but I do get something from you each week. I just wasn’t sure that was enough.
So I want to shout:
for being supportive and coming back each week! I really appreciate you!
Aww, you know I love you and I will be here if and when the hop resumes. Trust me with hosting FTSF, I know how challenging co-hosting a blog hop is and every once in awhile you need a break. Take it and enjoy it, because you totally deserve it. Have a wonderful weekend now and the week ahead, too
I don't blame you a bit! Hosting is hard work Enjoy the break, and I'll look for you on the web
Thank you very much for commenting and linking up each week! I love your recipes!
Enjoy your vacation! It is hard enough for me to try and promote my blog on the link parties I can only imagine how hard it would be to host the link up and respond to all the linkers each week – you did a great job of it though. I just do my best and what I can and like you said let God lead the way. It is hard juggling everything us moms and small business owners have each week.
You know, it's exciting to do, but you never know how much work it is until you do it. I love my linkers, but sometimes you just need a little break and He's forced me into it. My computer died at the same time!
I will be back when you resume, we all need a vacation and time off-enjoy yours!
