I was perusing through my inbox as I usually do first thing in the morning and I noticed that since I have taken the “Like” off of my blogs, my inbox is now much more manageable. I miss hearing from all of the friends and acquaintances that make up our blogging world although I still receive a lot of blogs from the ones I really care about and that I take the time to “Like”, which do give me great pleasure to read and acknowledge.

I almost feel like a new man with all of this time to spare. I didn’t realize just how much of it was taken up by reading and commenting on other peoples blogs. It was a bit out of control to say the least. Do I miss having all of those “Likes”? Of course I do. Everyone likes to have their ego stroked and there is no better stroke than a like from a fellow blogger.

Now if I could just control the ones that are looking for donations or want to sell me something that “I really must have”. Guess I need to unsubscribe from their mailing lists in order to achieve that.
