<p>I keep a folder in my browser&#8217;s bookmarks toolbar with links to things I&#8217;ve run across to blog about.  But sometimes I look at them and think. . . &#8220;hmm. . . not today. . . &#8221;  Other days I have lots of ideas!</p>
<p>Anyway, I was pleased to run across the post &#8220;<a title="blogger burnout" href="http://jkrbooks.typepad.com/blog/2013/11/session-recap-blogger-burnout-suggestions-for-getting-your-groove-back.html">Blogger Burnout: Suggestions for Getting Your Groove Back</a>.&#8221; If nothing else, it lets me know that I am not alone in feeling an ebb and flow in my blogging.  And to know it&#8217;s OK to take a break from blogging.  And to let readers know when you just don&#8217;t feel like posting—but you&#8217;ll be back.   And to remind yourself WHY you are blogging in the first place.</p>
<p>Read the full post.  I think the suggestions apply to other areas of life as well, not just blogging.  Enjoy!</p>
