Happy Friday, dears! I’d like to thank each and every one of your for reading pearls on a string. Lately there’s been more and more visitors and friends, and I am so grateful. You may have noticed that my Thursday posts have been lacking. For the time being, I am going to cut down to just four posts per week. My life balance was getting a little out of whack and with work + blogging + life’s fun surprises I was beginning to feel a little overwhelmed. So, I am taking a step back to enjoy what I do and avoid burnout. I can definitely see how some gals make blogging their full-time career, it can be très time-consuming! I hope everyone has a wonderful weekend that includes some life balance for you as well, whether it’s learning to slow down or speed up.
