Dammit. I did it again. I burnt myself out from myLot. It is what it is. So, I will still be around of course, but I am going to take a little bit of a break. For those of you on the left you can of course call for your parties and start your rejoicing now. Besides, I am still working on a new cover and want to get that done. Plus, we have that camping trip booked in Chatham, Illinois with the fam the following weekend so we have things to do to make sure that happens according to plan. Onward and upward and see you on the other side. In the meantime, here is one the dumbest songs from my Pink Flamingoes album for whatever it is worth. lol. Hey, albums are like that, right? The good and the bad.

I go through phases where I get a little burnt out on myLot, but not enough for me to take any long or extended break other than maybe a day or two.

@porwest Wow, a month or two! That does seem like a long time. If I left for that long, I would probably forget all about the site and never come back! lol

Lately I will say if I do take a break, it tends to be quite a bit shorter. There have been rare occasions though when I got REALLY burnt out and left for a month or two.

@moffittjc Usually when that happened I was somewhere else. But like you said about a lot of others, they seem to always come back, and I am no exception.

Thanks ma'am. Rest assured it won't be a full-on break. I will be popping in often, just less than usual.

It was very nice. We really like the Double J Campground there.

One of my sons lives in Springfield, I am familiar with Chatham. Not terribly far, lots to do in Springfield. Have a nice time!

Yeah, we do like the lake, and of course its Lincoln land. Lots to see. A bit of a dirty town in some places though.

@porwest Have you ever been to New Salem State Park? They have a campground. New Salem is truly peaceful, really nice. Picturesque. I love the old settlement, the huge trees along the river. The campground is nice and quiet, I don't think they are open in the winter, you would have to check. It's worth the trip.

It will not be a full-on break, just going to spend less time than usual. But yes, people do tend to get worried a bit if people disappear, even if just for a short while. Best to let them know the absence is a planned one. lol

Taking a break once in a while is a good thing.

You need a break from work AND us? So be it! Don't overdo. Why is the song dumb? CYA when we CYA.

Maybe I was considering YOU may need a break from ME? lol. As for the song, I am my own worst critic. Aren't all artistically inclined people? lol
