Yes, I have been absent for over 6 months. I decided that I could not justify the amount of time I was spending on the computer. I tried just keeping up with the Google Reader which would show items I liked or felt informative from my favorite sites, but that too seemed to take up alot of time. There are an unlimited number of wonderful sites, and one post usually links to another, and that to another, . . .
It was very hard to break the habit of reading all the wonderful posts from all the wonderful sites out there. I thought I would miss something really important or some idea that was genius. Well there are some wonderful resources and ideas for homeschooling and practicing our Catholic Faith and I am sure I have missed out on many great ideas. Yet being more accountable for my time has been a blessing.
So now I reenter the world of blogging very slowly and with much discernment. It is Lent and I have three books going at once, along with the Lenten liturgical activities that accompany homeschooling and Catholic life! My next post will be on spiritual reading.

Have missed you. Looking forward to your post on Spiritual Reading.
i always enjoy your posts. welcome back!
I understand this post completely as I just start out blogging. As I begin homeschooling again soon, my time on the computer will have to be limited so as to attend to all the demands of homeschooling my 4 children! It is going to take alot of self-discipline because like you said there are so many great and wonderful blogs and ideas in blog world and I want to catch all the good ideas, but I know I can't. Thanks for your entry into my CHC giveaway! I'm your newest follower! Tracy
Welcome back, Rest and family is far more important than the blogging life. We get caught up in the virtual world as well and it's hard sometimes to keep focused.
