I'm thinking of shutting it down.

Yes, The Cushy Life.  I have to put it out there, first and foremost, that this is not a cry for attention or a flood of comments that say, "Don't go!" This is something that has been floating around for quite awhile.

I'm finding it more and more difficult to stick to blogging to be honest. My life is in a place where I simply don't have time each and every day to document my life.  At best, I can update twice a week and that is even a struggle most times.


Jimmy gets off work at 7pm. By the time we are done with our nightly routines, it's 9pm. For the most part, I have refused to immediately get on the laptop to start downloading pictures, editing, documenting......   You know the drill.  On nights when I do blog, I'm up way too late and miss very valuable time with him. He is getting ready to head back to school for at least another year, possibly year and a half and he will be needing the laptop far more than he does now.


Just as I am typing this, Hollin is napping and my little Harper has asked me no less than 10 questions about his toy car. And like so many times before, I keep saying,"Give me a moment please." "Mommy will be done soon." "Hang on just a second sweetie!"  I don't ever want him to think that mommy's computer time comes before him.  He goes to Kindergarten this fall and part of me just wants to soak up every moment, even more than I have been.


I don't know for sure if I'm going to close out my account completely or just take a hiatus. My heart is torn because I LOVE blogging. I love being able to look back and remember little details about my life that otherwise would have been forgotten.  But, at the same time, I have to be realistic about how much time I can really devote to this little space on the internet.


{So with that being said, unfollow me if you would like.  It seems that my little blog will grow a bit, then I'm not able to post and will lose followers. I love the idea of watching my blog grow, but that process gets pretty frustrating when I can't devote the time that my readers obviously want, so they leave. }

I wanted to post what's on my heart and explain why I've been absent. It's not because I don't love this blog or take it seriously.

While I take a little time to figure it out,  I want to thank each of you who have been reading along with me over the last few years. Thank you for your comments, love and support. Aside from documenting my life and my sweet babies, you all are one of the biggest reasons I keep updating.


In the meantime, you can find me almost daily on instagram as @cushymommy

Until next time,
