This post about finding balance and evalua...+JMJ+ <br /><br />This post about finding balance and evaluating trade offs is very timely for me. My particular issue is balancing reading for leisure and reading for work--and I consider both my tutoring job and my blogging obligations to be "work."<br /><br />Sometimes I have to reread a book for "Locus Focus" or for a friend's blog event that I made a previous commitment to, and that cuts into both the leisure reading and the essential <i>pondering</i>. And those are the times when I feel that blogging is making me read a lot and ponder a little. =( So to answer your question, yes, blogging about my reading <i>has</i> cut in when during times when I was actually trying to read. (Is this an irony? LOL!) <br /><br />There are also moments when I think that I do quite a lot of "work" with no practical compensation, and that I should retire the meme and keep the rest of my blogging within more specific parameters. I hope to reach a decision soon.Enbrethilielhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03414765854670926854noreply@blogger.com
