I can’t do three things

I love blogging. I really, really do. I love to come up with post ideas, write new topics, take photographs, catch up on other blogs, etc. It’s a way to unwind and do something for me. But I’m here to tell you, since I got engaged I haven’t done that once. Nope, not even close.

I have NO idea what’s going on in your lives. I haven’t thought about a blog post topic in almost two weeks. It was hard enough to work 45-50 hours a week and still find time to write a post here and there. But now! When I’m not working, I’m planning a wedding. Wedding planning is no picnic either. I’m so excited to be getting married. I love Stephen with all my heart, and I can’t wait to marry him, but I’m about one more decision away from eloping at all times.

My point of this quicky check-in post, is that I’m still here. I’m still here, I’m just really busy. All my plans for how to better my blog are kind of on hold at least until I find a venue and a date.

I would love advice from bloggers who did this or just have better time management skills than I do! How did you manage working full-time, blogging and planning a wedding all at the same time? All free advice is appreciated!

P.S. I miss y’all!

    ohhh girl i can't even imagine! i wasn't 'really' blogging when i was planning the wedding, so i have no advice. in fact, i think i started before we got married and then took a huge break until after we were married, lol. it is super stressful! i feel you on wanting to elope though, it was the most stressful time of my life! but i hope things calm down soon and you're able to blog because we miss your face!
