Tonight I sat down to read through my Google Reader and noted that this once-pleasurable read has now become a task.
Granted, I have probably subscribed to too many blogs, but to delete is really not an option, for to unscribe would hurt the author’s feelings (not that he/she would ever know about this).
I could skim/scan…but what if I miss reading that one particular post that is going to assist in helping my students and myself have an even more interesting week?
I could read each and every one. I could. Unfortunately, life is real. Lessons to plan. House to clean. Family to visit. Birthday party to plan.
I could read each and every one. No, I cannot accomplish this. This is just another instance in which I am ever realizing that the more I read the more I know I need to read!

Do you have your Google Reader set up into Folders? I find that helps. That way I can prioritise my reading and it isn’st do overwhelming.
It also means I can mark as read the less important folders.
The main reason why I don’t unsubscribe is I use my Google Reader as my first source when writing a blog post.
Here is how to set up folders if you aren’t using — scroll to bottom of page.
