1 THING THIS WEEK:
- I’ve made a point to be very good about interaction ever since I moved my blog to WordPress, and that’s been fine. But recently I started to feel like I had to constantly be checking in on both my blog and everybody else’s and that was stressing me out, so I turned off notifications to my phone and told myself to calm down. I’m already more relaxed. You might not see me around as much, but I’m still here! (Just not as frequently.)

Being sure to interact can get stressful. I used to try to interact with absolutely everyone but it got to be too much so now I just comment on posts that I really enjoy. I make to reply to people on my own blog though 😉

That’s what I’m trying to do too. I’m definitely still responding to people on my own blog (though maybe not as quickly as before) and trying not to pressure myself into commenting on things when I don’t really have anything to say.

I have notifications set and I check blogs but I do it at five in the morning and ten at night.

That sounds like a reasonable way to do it. I have been checking as I have my morning coffee and then again before bed and it seems to be working pretty well so far.

I don’t have WordPress on my phone at all (I don’t have any push notifications enabled, actually) and it makes a huge difference in my life. I have my routine of checking my blog in the morning and at night if I feel like it.

I believe it! Not having my phone constantly flashing notifications at me has made such a difference already!

Is it odd that there is no weekly playlist here? 😊
Hope there will be one next time.
Best regards!

It is a little odd, but I couldn’t think of a song I wanted to share! Hopefully I’ll have something for the next one. 😊
