The Long Goodbye

by Summer M.

You’ve probably noticed that my posting has become more sporadic and less inspired. I’ve noticed it too. I wish I could say that I’m going to make an effort to blog better, but the truth is that isn’t going to happen.

The reality is that I’m feeling burnt out and stretched thin. I’ve found myself with too many obligations and not enough time to cover them all and still be a mom. I need some breathing room. Which is why I am stepping down as the writer here at The Attached Mother While I have loved writing here and meeting so many amazing home schooling families, it’s just time for me to move on and hand the reins over to someone else.

Of course this doesn’t have to be a complete goodbye. You all are more than welcome to check in on me at my personal blog, Wired For Noise. In fact I would be honored if any one of you stopped by from time to time. Heck, stop by there today and enter the contest I am hosting this week.

Thank you all for the wonderful time I spent blogging here.

Summer
