Thin Soup - Things are Changing

Ok - I'm really writing this post.

I have been thinking and praying about this decision for weeks.

I am at peace and know this is the decision I needed to make.

I will no longer be posting on Penny Pinching Penguin.

Well, mostly stop.

I may post occasionally.  I am not ready to say it's completely over.  I will link to past articles through Rediscovering Domesticity.

I will continue the Bloggy Basics and Money Minute on Rediscovering Domesticity.

Why?

I need to focus on my family more.  I've been feeling like thin soup.  Now that I have 2 little ones, I hardly have time to plan a good bargain shopping trip let alone stay up on all the hot deals.  My heart just isn't in shopping anymore (it is so hard doing multiple stores in one day with carseats and naptimes).  I am trying to pinch pennies in other ways and will explore those on Rediscovering Domesticity.

I had mentioned about writing an ebook about saving money in every room of the house.  Many of you have submitted ideas for the book.  It will still happen!  I will offer it free on Rediscovering Domesticity when it is finished.

Thank you all for coming along side me while I learned how to save money and while I learned how this whole blogging thing worked!  Come on over to Rediscovering Domesticity.  Check it out.

Happy Labor Day!

thanks! Once the kids are a little bigger I might start it back up full time.

You always make the right decision. two little ones make a difference. Savings will come your way. God hasn't let you down yet. I love you.
I also think you have your priority straight. I will miss getting to know you thru your blog! Thanks for your prayer

The other day I visited a deal site that had closed down, like yours- and they did something really cool. They including links to the most popular/useful posts in the final post, so that all first time visitors could instantly access the best material. I guess that is what your Penny Pinching 101 is about, but if you have any other stellar posts it might be a good idea to add the links here.

Thanks - that's a great idea!
I totally understand your plight! I have a blog that I have not consistently posted on for about a year. How old is my son? 14 months! I just cannot seem to get back into it. He's number eight, and the next oldest is 17. So there have been big changes in the Smith Household. Enjoy your journey!

Wow! Those ARE big changes! Thanks for stopping by. God has been so good through this journey. He has been blessing my other blog (rediscoveringdomesticity.com) and has shown me time and time again how He helped me make the right decision. Blessings to you!
I totally understand. I noticed that your feed was not updating on my blogroll at CouponNewbie.com. I am going to remove you for now, but if you ever want to restart - just give me a hollar. I totally understand where you are coming from - sometimes a vacay is all that's needed!

Thanks for commenting! I have realized that after such a long break, that I won't be re-starting Penny Pinching Penguin. With 2 little ones and another on the way (I can't believe we'll have 3, 3 and under!), I just don't have the time to get into couponing for this season in life. I'm focusing on my Rediscovering Domesticity website instead. Thanks for your kind words!

Blessings,
Audra
