I feel like my reading has suffered quite a bit this year--but then when I compare it to other years, it's not really a whole lot different. It just feels like I'm dividing my time in so many more ways, I think. <br /><br />Thank you all for your wonderful comments. And thank you again, Florinda, for your guest post.

I'd rather spend the time commenting on other blogs (although I slack at that, too).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31552114.post-17534334798776050132009-08-11T08:37:38.567-07:002009-08-11T08:37:38.567-07:00Thanks for the great comments, y'all, and than...Thanks for the great comments, y'all, and thanks to Wendy for letting me share my thoughts with you! I had a feeling some people could relate to this :-).<br /><br /><b>Melody</b> - A book a week is probably my average too, but clearly it's dropped lately :-).<br /><br /><b>Sandy</b> - If I could make full-time-equivalent MONEY at it (ha!!), I'd make blogging my job in a minute. I think. Maybe then it would start to feel like work and I'd lose interest...but it would be nice to find out!<br /><br /><b>Rita</b> - Nice to meet you! I think I'm going to expand on that "hybrid blogger" idea on my own blog before too long...I need to mull it over some more.<br /><br /><b>Molly</b> - I completely agree! It's like we'll never catch up, but we're having a good time trying :-).<br /><br /><b>Serena</b> - As usual, you are too kind :-).

But it takes time to write the book reviews, which takes away from our reading time. Add the reading and commenting on other blogs and it is nearly an impossible task (except I have such fun trying to achieve the impossible!)Mollyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08414201637917215413noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31552114.post-25572880465557087162009-08-11T03:35:36.443-07:002009-08-11T03:35:36.443-07:00This post sounds like me!!

I love to read and have a blog, but find that blogging and doing research on writing takes time away from reading.<br /><br />I love the "hybrid blog" characterization. Mine has to do with food, but I find I write about everything under the sun. Anyway, I love reading your blog. Thanks for writing it.Ritahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05226165045692713370noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31552114.post-86136269220798127932009-08-11T03:19:55.798-07:002009-08-11T03:19:55.798-07:00Haha!

I think at this point, blogging COULD be a full-time job for me, as my husband keeps reminding me that the house will start to fall apart if I don't drag myself away from the computer. It is great to hear from you Florinda!
