I found that doing reviews/giveaways stressed me out..I am much more selective now. Oh and change is always good! I will be going through one too. Cant wait to see yours!

I have learned that it is okay to say "no" and I think most PR reps are pretty respectful of that. We can only do so much and when we put too much on our plate, we get way burnt out. For sure!

I've been blogging 4 years (as of today!) now and I've learned that the important thing about blogging is that I'm myself. I don't have to conform to what others think the blog should look like.

I just started blogging a couple of months ago, and see how it can quickly take over your life.<br /><br />I love the look of your blog by the way!<br /><br />Stopping by from SITS to say hello.

How silly. Blogging is suppose to be fun with the perks of free stuff and the occasional post where you get paid some cash. Once you learn to say no to opportunities that don't seem like a good fit the better shape you will be in. Good luck on your blog changes. I am glad MElinda does out blog changes. LOL.

Good luck on the finding a life part; I've come to the conclusion if they don't start selling them at Wal-mart that I'm never going to have one ;) Women often feel they are not allowed to say no to anything–I'm glad you are learning how and can thus keep your sanity!

I have moments when i hit that burn out some weeks and then i have to step back for a few days and take a break or else i would burn out completely. I noticed the same thing with the buttons when i was changing my stuff, I can not believe how many blogs i used to follow that are just not there anymore.
