The parenting thing is awesome, but it does kinda override everything else.

They're so much fun, though every once in a while I'd love a bit more time and space. I'm sure there are benefits to having older kids, though I expect the teenage years will be less fun in other ways.<br /><br />If you do swing by my blog sometime, definitely leave me a note. It's been tough to stay motivated at times, but I'm still enjoying the process.

We can barely handle the one sometimes, so hats off to you sir. B-) I miss those early days sometimes (how he used to just sink into our hugs, etc.), but so far the teen years have been pretty great too. Well, except for a bit of the moping. There's always a bit of moping...<br /><br />Looking forward to getting back into the groove of actually reading people's blogs again too. You're obviously one of my first stops.<br /><br />Take care...Bob Turnbullhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02243657105760780425noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8977893001776125260.post-89469904625464812832014-07-30T07:35:41.507-05:002014-07-30T07:35:41.507-05:00I've only had a blog for three and a half year...I've only had a blog for three and a half years, but I've even seen a change in that point in terms of readership and feedback from other bloggers being a lot lower. I've struggled with the same thoughts of whether it's the frequency of how much I post or what I'm writing about that makes a difference.<br /><br />In terms of your writing, I've been a fan for a while and have missed hearing your thoughts on films. I always seek out your posts when they show in my RSS feed. I have two kids (5 and 1), so I'm rarely on the forefront of the latest films and trends.<br /><br />I'm glad to hear that you might be writing again, and I wouldn't feel too bad about seeing 134 films. I'm only at 72 for the year, so you're way ahead of me.

I'm sure we can chat at a blogger pub night (tonight?) or during TIFF (Queen and Beaver baby!).

Seriously thou...Sir, please get out of my head! :)<br /><br />Seriously though, I truly loved this post. Partly because it touches on a lot of points I have been wrestling with internally this past summer. As you stated the blogging landscape is rapidly changing and the thirst to even attempt to keep up is no longer there.<br /><br />Frankly, since I was never an opening night/avid self-promoter/social media type, it feels like I have been behind the curve for years. Now that my son is growing older and becoming more interactive, the balance between family time and blogging time is getting trickier with each passing day.<br /><br />Like yourself, I have great respect for those who have made it, or at least are working hard to attain their dream of being a professional film critic. I am pulling for them to make it. I especially tip my hat to those who doing it with a family. <br /> <br />We will have to go into this deeper whenever our paths cross next. I just wanted to say how much this particular post spoke to me.Courtney Smallhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00045575858464121137noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8977893001776125260.post-17171875370800917042014-07-28T20:17:42.255-05:002014-07-28T20:17:42.255-05:00Well, I can't speak for anyone else, but I alw...Well, I can't speak for anyone else, but I always read your posts and appreciate them. I am not much of a commenter, but I check on the regular. You're in my RSS feed and I am always happy to see a new post. Pitronehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12186346590925676409noreply@blogger.com
