Happy Sunday my lovelies! Today for Stop & Chat I want to talk to you about something I’m actually a tad embarrassed about. Something I hate to admit but need to get out because I’m so guilty of it!
*insert Jaws music*
EMAILS!!!
I realized a few weeks ago that I am absolutely HORRIBLE at getting to my emails. Don’t get me wrong, if you look at my mac or even my phone you won’t see a single unread email. I’m VERY good at keeping that ugly red icon away. In fact every time a email pops up I dutifully open up my mail app, read the email and….NOTHING.
But it wasn’t always like this! I remember the days when I was proud and even giddy about an incoming review request. The thought of someone believing in RSR enough to ask my to promote their book. Their baby! Or the days when another blogger would email me and I’d squeal with glee because there was someone who wanted to talk bookish…WITH ME!
And every time I replied back from my “official” blog email I’d feel an extra ping of pride.
But somewhere along the lines all the rainbows and unicorns slowly faded away and I was left with the realization that I’M LAZY! I start to thinking about what I have to say, and what I need to say, what’s polite, what’s too bitchy and just got tired of it all. It’s not that I don’t appreciate it just sometimes I just don’t feel up to it.
Which brings me to the real part of this horribly long post. Am I alone?! Please tell me I’m not the only person that get’s so overwhelmed with just the THOUGHT of replying to an email that you just close out and walk away! TELL ME!
