Blogging and related stuff probably consumes about that much of my time per week too. For a while, I had several weeks' posts done in advance, but things come up and I can't always keep that going.

I look forward to seeing your posts every week, but I understand your decision, especially in light of those shocking stats.<br /><br />I, too, am somewhat troubled by how long blogging takes, but in my case, I'd rather cut back on the aimless Internet browsing, which I do far too much. At least my blogging has led me to people like you.<br /><br />Thanks for all the kind words and encouragement, and enjoy your family time. Life is short.J.H.

I love being connected with others through their blogs but like you, I need to prioritize more. I took off a whole week from commenting on blogs, it was a much needed break, I am back, ready to go back at... but only to people who really care, not the fake people. I want to spend more time with Valentina, that is what is important...

After so many years at that, I am ridiculously meticulous about time. And yet, despite getting very efficient and all that, I never seem to have enough time to do everything I want. >_< Seeing everything broken down like that doesn't surprise me, but I don't think I'd try to break it down for myself - I'd probably go mad.Mason T.
