I voted for Barbra but I could've just as easily voted for Aretha.<br />Good to hear you're "taking a break"....although it doesn't really sound like a break. :) You're presence will still very much be here and that's great. <br />When I took my break it was for about 6 weeks and I didn't do one bit of blogging. I may have commented on a few blogs here and there but even that was very minimal. I just needed a total break from it.<br /><br />I know you're looking forward to your summer travels and all the time spent with family. You guys all have a good time and be safe out there! <br /><br />Michele at <a href="http://angelsbark.wordpress.com/" rel="nofollow">Angels Bark</a>Michele at Angels Bark https://www.blogger.com/profile/15891713963440451090noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-149224757183756660.post-65872360359259777162017-06-26T15:56:46.039-07:002017-06-26T15:56:46.039-07:00Carrie-Anne, make the best of where you are.

There have been times I went a month or more (sometimes much more) between posts on my secondary blog, though that was more from not having any gripping ideas about post topics than taking an altogether blogging break.<br /><br />I hate being stuck in SC this summer instead of allowed to move back to Pittsburgh, though maybe I'll be able to visit some of the historic places during my few months in this state. My long-hiatused 18th century characters lived at least half of their lives in Colonial SC, so I could get some research done.Carrie-Annehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05810154378449825641noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-149224757183756660.post-81598958217205739922017-06-25T07:55:55.631-07:002017-06-25T07:55:55.631-07:00Taking a break is indeed necessary at times and su...Taking a break is indeed necessary at times and surely with summer upon us, its even more likely for others too.

I decided not to do the first of month Battles for the next couple months since we'll be having company in July and then traveling on the first of August. I'll probably have a tough enough time doing the Battles on July 15th but I'll manage I guess.<br /><br />Hopefully I'll get a blogging recharge after I return from vacation. <br /><br />Lee<br />Arlee Birdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11663942782929929334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-149224757183756660.post-71098820274903793612017-06-22T14:10:53.557-07:002017-06-22T14:10:53.557-07:00If or when we do get rain out here in the tinderbo...If or when we do get rain out here in the tinderbox I'm so grateful I wish the same for everyone! <br />Do enjoy a nice break this summer ;-)<br />My blogging breaks (gaps) have all been entirely involuntary.
