I don't normally take very much time off on my blog because I really do love being here, reading and replying to comments and of course visiting other blogs but this Labor Day weekend I have decided to take some much needed time off.
I am trying not to panic at being away from the computer for three whole days but...I think my family and I need the break, well, maybe I just need the break. Either way I am closing my laptop and will try my hardest not to return until Tuesday morning.
I know I am going to feel so behind on visiting blogs but I will do my best to get caught up on Tuesday when the kids go back to school. To keep my work load lighter I am also going to take a break from posting anything this weekend as well so I wanted to take the time now to wish everyone a very safe and happy Labor Day weekend!
I hope you all get to do those things you love best, be with family, friends, take a much needed nap, whatever it is you like to do and of course, find that perfect book to read over the long break.
Thank you all so much for visiting every day and all your wonderful comments. I really do love all the friendships I have made since I started my blog and I cherish all of you! You guys can make me smile when I am having a bad day with your love of books. It is so much fun having others to share my passion with that truly understand.
See you guys on Tuesday!!
We all need a break sometimes, Ali! I hope you have a fabulous weekend! Have fun, we'll all still be here when you get back.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much Maja, you are the best! :)
DeleteHave a wonderful break with the family! Good to do that now and again :) Happy Labor Day to you too! I'm going to be blogging but vegging out too and relaxing the days away. Can't wait :)
ReplyDeleteI hope you have a nice relaxing time!!
DeleteBreaks are awesome, Ali. Everyone needs one from time to time. I always make sure to take at least 4 breaks every year.
ReplyDeleteAnyways, I hope you have a wonderful weekend with your family and we'll all be around when you get back! :)
I hope you'll have an amazing weekend with your family! As for me, weekend is my time to get back on my blogging/commenting feet. I'm starting with this wonderful blog of yours :))
ReplyDeleteAww thanks Dea! Have a nice weekend getting caught up!
DeleteTaking time off from blogging is SO hard! I can resist peeking for a day, maybe two, but 3? No way! LOL I'd have to lock-up my smartphone. Hehe That being said, enjoy your long weekend, it's also Labour Day here in Canada which marks the end of the summer, so it's kinda bitter sweet. Happy Friday!
ReplyDeleteI know, it is going to be hard to resist and I am sure I will cheat here and there. :)
DeleteHave a wonderful weekend!
Time off is always a good thing Ali! I know the feeling - whenever I take a little time, even just on weekends, I always feel a little out of sorts the day I come back. Like I've missed a lot being away even though I really haven't. BUT, blogs are a ton of work, and you definitely need to step away now and then, so enjoy your holiday weekend!!!!
ReplyDeleteAlso, I see you're failing a touch already by responding to comments... GO AWAY ALI ;-)
LOL! I know, I know. I will I promise. ;)
DeleteI'm a few days into my blogging hiatus and I have to admit, it's quite lovely :) I do miss posting and reading comments, but it's nice to just step away for a few days and focus on other things! I hope you and your family have a wonderful holiday weekend!
ReplyDeleteSo glad you are enjoying yourself Jayne, I hope you have a great weekend too!
DeleteI hope you enjoy your time off :)
ReplyDeleteWoot Woot you Rock Kindlemom Have fun few days I'll be thinking of you as I too take a well deserved break from the rat race :)
ReplyDeleteThanks so much Debbie, I hope you have a nice time off as well. :)
DeleteIt'll be unusual without you here, but still you enjoy your time! :) I hope you'll relax and have fun with your family! :) See ya! :)
ReplyDeleteAww thanks Tanja!
DeleteThanks Kat!
ReplyDeleteI have stuff scheduled, though right now I'm not posting on Sunday. But I'll be away from the computer for the most part. Actually all next week I'll be away most of the time because my parents are coming to visit. But sometimes we just need to take a break. Have a wonderful weekend!
ReplyDeleteI hope you have a nice time with your parent Candace and you too!!
DeleteHave a wonderful holiday weekend! I totally applaud taking breaks (as you can probably tell from my sporadic posting/commenting schedule this summer as I travel). Hope yours is wonderful and you have a fun time with your family! :D
ReplyDeleteThank you so much, you guys are the best! Okay, I am leaving for real now. :)
DeleteThanks so much Heidi! <3
ReplyDeleteI don't really know about the day because we don't have that in France but I hope you'll have a nice time. It will be sad without you.
ReplyDeleteThanks Melliane!
DeleteJust smash your screen, then that'll help you resist. ;) Have a great weekend!
ReplyDeleteYeah, I think I'll pass on that one. ;)
DeleteI always skip posting blogs on holidays because I know nobody will be reading. If I get free time, I read blogs. We're visiting family this weekend, so I may be able to squeeze in some blog reading time early in the morning, while everyone else is asleep! That's often my "me" time, even on vacation.
ReplyDeleteI hope you have a nice time Stephanie!
DeleteI always feel bad when I miss some time, but only for a minute. I hope you enjoy your time with your family because that is the most important thing. :) I always unplug when I am out of town.
ReplyDeleteThanks Becca!
DeleteEnjoy your break and don't feel bad! I hope you have a brilliant time :)
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend and enjoy your break :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Ellen, it was a nice break but back to business as usual now. :)
DeleteWow every day? I really need to try harder to catch up on all my blogs. You must get into a great routine! Have fun!
ReplyDeleteI do have a routine and it definitely helps. ;)
DeleteEnjoy your long weekend. I understand as I rarely take time, and always feel guilty..but sometimes you need a break.
ReplyDeleteDefinitely. ;)
DeleteThat's all right!! Take your well-deserved rest ;) You've done a very good job this week and you need a vacation, three days or a week or more. Have fun with your family!
ReplyDeleteFaye at The Social Potato
A week or more? Never! I actually think I would go crazy. :P
DeleteI'm cought back on blogs as well since I started school 4 days ago. It's quite something school + blogging + reading + reviewing. LOL
ReplyDeleteHave a happy weekend! :)
I can imagine how hectic that must be! But I guess that is what weekends are for right? Getting caught up? :D Thanks Lola!
DeleteEnjoy your days off! Sometimes it's just nice to sit back and relax. I haven't been online much either in the last couple weeks because of vacation and all sorts of other things going on; just haven't had the time. It's nice to come back a bit more refreshed though.
ReplyDeleteIt really is!
DeleteI hope you're having a great weekend! I always love visiting your blog :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Montana that means a lot. <3
