Well the title really says it all. I started this hobby back in March and it's been a blast, but it's time for my blogging to come to an end. It's come to a bitter-sweet ending for me.
Hubby and I have discussed this at length and we feel it's best for some things to be let go. I love my blog and I love the outlet it gives me. I love how I'm able to help others, but it's gotten to be too time consuming to continue.
When I started this whole adventure I didn't mean for it to get so big. I'm not willing to take it to the next level I guess you could say. I appreciate everyone who's been by and faithful to read. There are many other blogs that I would recommend stalking. Check out the links on the side bar.
If you live in the Acadiana area you can still look me up on Acadiana Moms.com and I will still be offering my coupon class in Sept.
Thanks again for all the love and all the new friends I've made!!
Be Blessed and Happy Shopping!!

I will miss you and your sense of humour! I am struggling with the same things so we'll see where the blog path takes me. It does take a LOT of time. I really had no idea. Best wishes to you. I admire you for your ability to homeschool all those boys. I don't think I'm that brave :)

Thank you for all the advice and deals, etc. I agree, blogging is time consuming and you've got to have your priorities right. Good for you! Take care.

Sorry to see you go.
Best wishes!
I will miss you and all of your great deals. But you do have the most important job at your house - being a Mom and wife.
Enjoy yourself and if you ever need to let some energy loose - stop in and blog :) We'll be here.
Wishes and Peace to you ..
May God bless your family as you have blessed us reading your blog.

You will be missed. I really enjoyed stopping by! Best of luck to you!
Oh, Carlie, you have been so wonderful to help me get into CVSing. You have to make the right decision for your family and I can imagine that it would be very time consuming. Take care!
Good luck to you and your family. You will be missed. I have so enjoyed reading your blog and have appreciated all the time you put into it.
wow. didn't see that coming. that's a bummer.
Good luck and you will be missed! Sorry to see you go.
Carly, you do what you need to do and have no regrets.
May I make a suggestion? Don't delete your blog. Use it when you have the opportunity and maybe post an update once monthly or something. Those who subscribe via your RSS feed will know you have posted. At least that way, you could pick up and go with the flow again at some point in the future if you just do posts hit and miss, holidays, school breaks etc.
Do drop by and post on my blog if you ever have time. I'd love to hear from you.
All the best to you my blogging friend. I want to personally thank you for all the traffic you have sent my way. It has been a true blessing. Keep in touch as time allows!

The lurker finally posts! I'm sorry to see this go. I was wondering how on earth you found time every day on top of everything else. Maybe now we can get together more! See you all soon!
Sorry to see you leave, I have really enjoyed reading you blogs for the past few months. Best wishes....
When I read you post this morning I must have made a horrible sound, for my husband came rushing in. He looked at me and then my computer screen. He said (in a very sad voice) that he feels like they just cancelled his favorite TV show!
You are a much a part of our family as Dave Baker (for those of you who are not from Acadiana, he is our local weather man!) "What did Dave say about rain today" or "What did Carly say about the sales today!" are parts of our daily conversations!
You have made a huge impact not only to myself (and husband!), but to my 17 year old daughter, 13 year old son, and 6 year old daughter! Like I said, your blog is my home page on the internet. And they all sneak to use my internet cuz its the best! So they read your blog as much as I do!
We will sadly miss you, Carly and hope you do take Gingers advice and tease us occasionally with your oodles of information!
See you around town!

oh, no that's poo! you will have to post pics on AM sometimes though!
YIKES! I really love your blog. I'm so sad to let you go but I know it's for the best. God bless you and your family.
Noooooooo...... You are one of my favorite reads!!!!!!
Blessings and Best wishes to you and your family.
I had to do the same thing just a few weeks ago. I didn't work as hard as you do, and even with that it was just one thing too much in a bush day. Wishing you all the best as you focus on your family!
Carlie,
I will miss stopping by to check out your deals & hear a funny story! Thanks for all the work you have done for our families. Now go & ENJOY yours! You will be missed, T
Wow. This is a surprise. You are one of my favorite blogs. I love the personal touches that you share with us. I wish you the best in whatever you decide to do from here.
We'll miss you.
No, no, no...boo hoo! I don't want ya to go!!!! But...I guess I understand. It is a time commitment that can snowball into a lot more.
Please continue to stop by my place - you are always welcome to do a guest post ANYtime you want. So, if ya get that itch to share a deal for someone in your region - send me the details! I'll miss visiting you!
Wow, it seems like I am reading similar messages at a number of my favorite sites. I hope it's not catchy! That said, I will echo what others have written: that I am sad to see you go, that I appreciate your commitment to your family, and your wit and wisdom will be missed. Wishing you all the best!
I will miss reading your blog.
Melanie
I will miss your blog! Best of luck to you and your family.
Its a decision that I am sure was not easy. But good for you.... you have to do what is best for you and your family.....
I hope you will update once in ahwile... but if you don't.. that is okay too.
Best Wishes!!
Carlie,
It is sad to see you go. It's definitely true that blogging can be very time consuming. It's great that you were able to simplify your life in a way that will leave more time for the items that are priorities for your family. Best wishes to you and your hubby in all your future endeavors. You will be missed!
