    Hi there, I think we all go through slumps of one sort or another. Loved seeing the photos of Teddy again-he is so adorable. I did find a large miniature puppy, a possibility, but Reggie still is hanging in there. Our youngest just got a 9 week old miniature Schnauzer that is also adorable. Sending love your way.

    We all go thru blog slumps. We'll all be here when you get back. Maybe you could post a soup recipe from Vegetable Soups from Deborah Madison's Kitchen Cook Book. We don't need pictures of the soup. More pictures of Teddy's sweet face will be just fine.

    But WOW, I adore the Teddy photos.
    You could just post Teddy and kitty photos everyday and I'd be happy!
    Rest and I'll read ya later!

    Couldn't you just eat him up. He is just as handsome as could be. Give him a nice scratch on the belly for me. Susan

    Enjoy your blogging break. Autumn is a wonderful time to sit back and relax!!!

    Yes, I know well the slump of a blog. I've had them. Just remember who you're doing it for. And that answer should be yourself. xo

    I'm where you're out. It is taking a ton of energy right now to even get interested enough in anything ... and then pictures, and then writing ... oh gosh and then linking. Mine is a combination of things, and I'm sure yours is as well. I'll be glad to see you when you get back, but do what you need to do for yourself now.

    Hugs,
    Mary

    All you have to do is take care of yourself and your loved ones. That's all. Life is difficult and when it gets worse, just breath deeply and take care of yourself.

    so teeny!!!!... I remember bringing Holly home on the day we picked her up and she was so small she sat in my cupped hands... I could feel her little heart beating...

    ... don't worry about the blog slump. Since having my kitchen done and taking the break I've not felt the mad rush to blog that I did before. It makes me feel guilty and i'm sure the urge will come back. Stick with it though because we'd all miss you!

    Yes, I think we all know the blog slump. Not quite as bad as writer's block, but similar. You'll be back in your own due time, and I am looking forward to then!

    Its wonderful how much a four legged companion can tug at the heartstrings and make everyday more satisfying.
    You'll find something to blog about but in the meantime enjoy this beautiful season named Autumn.

    Hi Kary and Teddy!
    I know just how you feel - all blogged out! I havent had the urge all summer to blog or even really blog hop, I guess we all need a break from it to come back fresh, and its so time consuming too.
    Thank you so much for sharing these wonderful photos of your precious Teddy - he was such a tiny sweet thing wasnt he?
    Beautiful boy!
    Have a good bloggy break Kary!
    Hugs from Gill and Logan!
