As a blogger that concentrates on product reviews, it is very, very, very, VERY easy to get overwhelmed with a backlog of posts to write. Especially around this time of year, my inbox gets blasted with requests from companies to try their items and write honest reviews. This will continue until the new year at which point the work flow is more manageable.

Writing review after review can become monotonous and, well, can suck out any ‘fun’ in writing. Starting now, I’m going to take a deep breath and try to get my creative juices going again.

I have a few topics I’d like to address but I need more. What’s been going on with you? Are there issues you’re concerned with or projects you’ve been working on? Anything interesting happen with you or your kids? Traveled somewhere fun, created something new, or cooking up a storm? I’m all ears 🙂
