I'm Sorry

I've spent the last two days catching up on the blogs in my reader, as well as posting and replying to my comments. And even though I'd caught up on my reading by 11 last night, today I have 40 posts to read (Don't any of you EVER take a break? I'm just wondering). And my own post to write. In addition to my work at home job, cleaning and oh yeah, taking care of my children.

Because of our precarious financial situation and our messy house, Hubby has demanded that I quit blogging.

He thinks I'm wasting my time and talent on an unpaid activity.

He doesn't understand about writing practice, my love of the blogger community and my desperate need for attention.

And for the good of our marriage and family, I have to see his point. I mean, I do stay up too late/skip cleaning/let the children watch too much TV just so that I can blog more. So, this will be my last post. I just want you all to know how much I love you and will miss reading you every day.

*April Fool! Like Hubby would demand that I do anything! Especially quit blogging, as he knows it's often the tenuous thread between me and sanity. In fact, this post was actually his idea - after I expressed jealousy awe over the success of his April Fool's post, I have discovered that Scientology is the Best!

you totally got me!!! My breath caught in my throat as I read "this will be my last post"! I am glad that it was just a joke and I will continue to see you around.

*sigh* I'm constantly on the lookout for April Fools posts, so I lose all the freaking out. Dangit.

I've seen several people who "quit" today. I have been well prepared for the fools. I hope you had a great day.
