For some time now, I just haven’t felt like blogging. The kids are getting bigger, and when I’m at home I’m enjoying spending time away from the computer and with the twins (not to mention Andrew and Harrison, and especially Elaine).
At the same time, I’ve been doing this fairly steadily since 2003… and it seems like such a waste to stop blogging entirely. I enjoy writing about the nanny state stuff, but I want to do more than just provide quick links, and frankly I don’t have time to write a thought-out 400-600 word piece every day.
I need my co-blogger back. 
So, I’m not going away. But I’m also probably not going to be doing much with this space for the rest of the year. I’m heading back to Arkansas in a couple of weeks to help my mother with some things, and that’ll take up some time. Holidays are always busy regardless, so I hate to say I’m going to get back at it right away and then fail as I’m crunched with work and personal stuff.
So bear with me if you’d like and I’ll kick things back up around the first of the year. Ideally I’d like to do one or two big posts a week and provide some quick links the rest of the time. We’ll see how well that works out. 
As for your “co-blogger”, she hasn’t posted in quite some time.
Take a break, enjoy your trip to your mom’s and spend the holidays with family.
While some of us would like to consider ourselves “somewhat” important in your life, I am sure that all would agree that we can certainly wait while you enjoy your time off. We will be here when you return.
Ditto what Terry said.

It’s that time of year, we are all busy with getting ready for Christmas and time with family.
We don’t expect to see large articles posted daily, quick thoughts and interesting links work good. Save the big stuff for once a month or so.
Hey, even if you stop blogging, we will still watch/listen to you on Cam & Company.
