Do Over: Wiping the Slate Clean


Do you ever feel so guilty about something that you make it even worse by avoiding it?

That would be my relationship with Google Reader.

At some point, my subscribed blog posts to read topped 1000 this summer.

So, I just never came back until today.


I kept meaning to catch up with those on my blog list, but it becomes insurmountable when the number unread goes beyond the limits of Google reader.

So today, I bit the bullet and deleted them all.

Deleted.

So I have no idea what has happened with many of my favorite blogs for the last six months. None.

It's called a do-over. Sweeping the room clean. Starting over so the guilt doesn't make me procrastinate so I miss even more.

So forgive me if I have been absent from your blogs (you've probably been happy to forgo my usual windy comments) and forgive me if I am clueless on things you have clearly spelled out before on your blog.

Be gentle.

I am trying to connect again with the blogs with which I fell in love.

And yes, maybe even find some more so please do tell:

What are your absolutely favorite blogs and why?

1000 blogs?! Oh.My.Gah...
Can you subscribe to yourself? Because you should read your blog. I do. It's one of my favorites.

I have absolutely no guilt about ppushing that delete button in Google Reader-- or about weeding out some blogs that don't interest me as much as they used to-- but you, Scout, will always be one of my favorites because of your emotional honesty and your abiity to find humor and joy in life's little challenges.....yoou will never get deleted I assure you
