Blogversary
Today is my 4th year blogging at Transatlantic Blonde! I've blogged on and off for over ten years but it is four years to the day I started this blog. I'm hopefully enjoying myself in France but I scheduled this post because every year I mean to post on my blogversary and every year I forget! I don't think anyone actually celebrates but it still cool to look back and realize how far I've come! This started as a silly little blog to keep in touch with friends and family and has turned into something much more. I never imagined so many people would read it or care what I had to say. So a big thank you if you are reading this post and if you are why not comment and let me know why the heck you do!

Blog Life Balance-- What is that again?
NotBlondeHusband and I are back from our trip to Sweden and as you may or may not have noticed I didn't manage to get a What I Wore Wednesday post up. Before we left on our trip Blondie Boy was sick (the kid that never puked couldn't even keep a sip of water down) and it seems I took his bug to Sweden with me.
After an episode of epic puking by myself at 4am before we were due to fly home we decided I'd definitely picked up whatever he had. Flying sick sucks, but I made it home (despite not having my resident visa card with me--thanks for playing with Mommy's wallet BB!) puke free. NBH was great and after a day in bed I was back to normal.
However BB being sick, then our trip and me being sick meant I had to catch up on a lot of work and honestly I just haven't had time to go to the grocery or unload the dishwasher let alone blog. Last night I literally had the choice between getting a big chunk or work done or unloading the dishwasher and I chose work since I could watch Idol at the same time--priorities.
I know that working from home while hanging out with a potty training toddler poses its own special time restraints but I'm just finding it hard to keep up. How do you find time to blog?
I do want to blog about our trip to Gothenburg especially as I found it really hard to find information from *real* people online before our trip and hopefully it won't take me too long to get around to it. Puking aside it was a great trip and I did enjoy getting to spend time just the two of us exploring a new place. Plus you really learn how much your husband loves you when he's cleaning your puke out of a blocked sink.
