(Sorry about the sound. This was the first time I’ve had the husband do the recording and clearly we have some issues to work on).
I might be reconsidering blogging after making this video and seeing all the things I could be doing instead.

Sleeping + pom martinis. Excellent way to spend your days!

You look so cozy on the couch all snuggled up with your book!
Maybe we should all take a week off to read (books), nap and drink martinis. We could have our own conference where that is all we do…

I think that is an excellent idea. Our conference should be in Vegas.

My house would be a lot cleaner, that’s for sure.
Ali recently posted..The Honeymooners or Whatever
I purposely didn’t show my house cleaner because really, it wouldn’t be.
Those are definitely all the things I do when I’m not blogging.
I love your sectional, btw. It’s like an island of comfort.

The courage to test out the vacuum…I love it! Well, it’s probably a good thing you blog – but even so, it’s never too early for pom martinis WHILE blogging.

From the reading to the sleeping, I couldn’t stop laughing watching this! And I loved seeing the take of your two girls and dog watching you, wondering what was mommy doing
I think if I were to stop blogging I might feel that itch to communicate with others online for awhile, but then I think it would probably go away and in its place I would write more and read more and probably be even more interactive and creative with my daughters. But blogging really helps me stay sane, so for now I am going to keep blogging!

I literally laughed out loud when you were drinking the pom martini at 11 am. So hilarious. I loved this vlog…now that I’m seeing things I could also be doing, I’m questioning blogging myself

I would be scrapbooking and reading all the time! I miss it so much!
Love that you had a day with all that non-blogging!

This made me laugh. I love that instead of blogging you’d be taking time for yourself…not chasing the kids around or making meals. Reading and drinking pom martinis is a very smart way to spend your free time!

That’s hilarious…and very true! But even though you would have much more free time if you were not blogging, we would miss you in the blogosphere.

Ha! Sleeping and hanging out… my two favorite things! PS Nice grass. LOL

Ah, yes, the one downfall of blogging is that I must do it mostly at night or when my daughter naps. Thus, I don’t nap or go to bed at a decent hour. Loved your video!

This looks like a mini vacation!! The last time I had any sleep, or was able to actually read a book was in May when my husband and I were on vacation and it was before I started blogging. I’m starting to realize there is just no hope of either anymore! HA!

Wait…if you stop blogging, it will be to nap and drink? Before I watched it, I thought you were serious and had some exciting things lined up to do. Now you’re not allowed to quit.

Your backyard looks soooo relaxing!
We’re into fall now (and I Love fall!)
I always think I like summer and sun but I don’t.
I envy people who do.

I love how your husband told the kids to be quiet because you were sleeping. Again.
That would be a pretty cushy life, huh?

Sleep, read and drink is what I’d do too if I didn’t blog. Looks like many other moms would do the same. Clearly we are not getting enough of those three things on a regular basis.
Is your husband always so sweet, or was it just cuz he was in the video?
