On Taking a Needed Hiatus

Jun 27, 2019

Good Morning:

The blog is going to be on hiatus until Monday.

Like so many overachieving women, I have a tendency to take on too much.  I need a couple of days to clear my to-do list.  Plus, when life gets frenetic, even I need to admit that the content here gets stale.

CHS and the community we’ve built here, and on Facebook, are some of my proudest accomplishments.  When they suffer because of work that I’m not passionate about, I feel like I’m letting you down.  So I need to refocus and choose the work that means the most to me and put that first.

I will see you Monday, I hope you all have a great weekend.

    Because I think of you as a living breathing human, rather than a machine here to churn out entertainment for me, I would never be disappointed by your content. I’m sure the majority of your readers feel the same, so please enjoy your hiatus sans guilty conscience. We will be here when you get back.

      Want to 2nd Monica! We will be here when you get back so you should definitely enjoy your hiatus guilt free! So glad you are taking a break for yourself and I think many of your readers, myself included, similarly find it difficult to give ourselves similar breaks. We are lucky to have you to set a good example and remind us that it truly is okay!

    I agree with my fellow commenters! Breaks are *so* important. Take the time you need to take care of yourself, we’ll be here! <3

  4. Michelle says:

    Enjoy the break Belle! I hope you have good weather so you can make yourself one of those delicious summer cocktails you always post and relax outside!

  5. Sally says:

    I agree with the other commenters. Enjoy your well-deserved break. I just prayed that you would find physical and spiritual rest during your hiatus.

    Have a wonderful, well deserved break!

Happy Hour: Atlantic Beach Pie

There are two kinds of people in this world: People who eat cake on their birthdays and people who don’t.  And some of the weirdos in the latter category (I said what I said) eat pie as an alternative.  So if you’re a “birthday pie” eater with a late summer celebration coming up, may I […]

The 2010s Trends I’m Loving and Leaving Behind

Our tween and teen nieces spent the first half of 2023 reviving our high school fashions.  From peasant tops to low rises, I felt like I was back bopping to N’SYNC in my mint-green sedan for a minute.  Now, our 20-something direct reports are bringing back the 2010s in a big way, and I am […]

The Find: Bright and Striped

For the past few years, the wardrobes of many influencers have tilted toward the beige and boring.  I’m all for a good basic, but staple pieces can only take you so far.  Sometimes, you need to wear something that has a little something extra, and this sale-priced tee certainly does.
