Hiatus
Hiatus is defined as “a pause or break in continuity in a sequence or activity” by Dictionary.com. I love the ritual of writing here every week and know how important it is to maintain that connection with you.
So it’s with great reluctance that I’m taking a break from blogging while I:
- Take care of copywriting, online marketing, SEO and web design clients;
- Study Guidance and Counselling for Education so I can branch out and work with vulnerable youth;
- Do some supply teaching to build up experience in schools;
- Train for my first triathlon – it’s the full or Olympic distance;
- Landscape and add a pool to our house – I’m not doing this personally but it takes a lot of organisation.
I definitely took on too much this time and, although I like to be busy, life is feeling too over-scheduled and stressful. So I’ve got to give Get In the Hot Spot a break to focus on all of the above. Plus, of course, take care of the Candy family and maintain my own sanity!
I’m sure I’ll find time to write here now and again with normal publishing resuming in November when the landscaping-pool project and triathlon are over. Phew!
Thank you for your patience. I can’t wait to reconnect with you again when I have time and energy to inspire you on towards more travel adventures and better health.
What are you up to?
Looks like you’ve got you workload cut out for you for the next few months!
All the best for your triathlon Annabel – and hopefully the pool will then be filled so you can lay back and relax in that when you’re done!!
Hi Linda,
I can’t wait for that!
Wow, you are one busy woman! I hope your training goes well (and that you do well!) and that your family and business also benefit from the added time spent with them. You’ll enjoy that pool in the heat of the summer :) See you on the other side xx
Hi Jo,
Yes, I can see the light at the end of the tunnel :)
I hope you enjoy your hiatus although it sounds as though you’re still going to be busy! Good luck with the projects and I look forward to reading you again come November.
Thank you Penelope.
Oh that is a lot on your plate. Very wise to take a break and get back to it when life eases off. I train with triathletes, they are amazing and spur me on. But knees are sore after running with them for an hour so I think I might just do the swimming instead.
Looking forward to a full report on the tri when it’s done.
Take it easy… in amongst a lot of really great stuff going on.
Hi Seana,
Now if only I could swim like a triathlete… or like you! I need lessons and more practice. Hopefully, it will come in time :)
Enjoy your training and other tasks. It is good to focus on different tasks.
Hi Fran,
I do like to be busy but may have taken it to far this time ;)
Wow, talk about a full plate! Take time to rock all those things – we’ll be here when you get back!
Wow! All those things going on AND a triathlon! I’m tired just reading about it :D Looking forward to hearing how the triathlon went (along with everything else)!
