Categorically Crafting Show Advice, Please!!!!

As I said a few days ago when I announced that I was pregnant, there will be some changes to this blog. It just seems to take so much time. I started it as a way to save cute craft ideas I wanted to make, but didn't want it taking up my personal blog. It has transformed into something much bigger than I ever imagined. I make a little money from it, but not much to justify the time I spend on the computer. .One of the things I have considered changing is Categorically Crafting. It takes at the bare minimum an hour to get the post up. Usually, it takes about 2 hours. I try to highlight at least 5 projects and have a linky. That is time away from my young family..I have given the option for other bloggers to gather the projects and make a post. They get to include one project from their blog in the round-up. In exchange for their time, I will put their button in the post as the host of that Categorically Crafting Show. Only two bloggers took me up on the offer. They got well over 100 views the day of the party. .So I want to know what you think of the Categorically Crafting Shows. Is it something you like? Is it something you link to? Do you check out any of the links at the party? If I don't have a round-up, would you miss that? Should I keep it going weekly? Only on special ocassions? Or never? Would you want to be the host of a Categorically Crafting Show one week?.I would love for you to leave a comment and let me know your thoughts. If you don't want to leave a comment, please take the quick survey on the side!.Thanks for your patience with me as I am trying to balance this blog with my family and a job..(Oh, I do have some openings for advertising. A few buttons are coming down soon. I have the most inexpensive rates of any blog my size. $35 for 3 months. Let me know if you are interested.).
