Girl, same thing here! I deleted mine based upon the strength and the challenge of your deleting yours. I thought about it, then just did it. But…I definitely miss it. I cannot keep up with the people I want to, because I forget to visit! Also, I was going to do a blogroll, but I can hardly even do my dishes from start to finish! I went back to my Reader also… I just could not organize without it.

I try to keep the number of blogs in my reader reasonably low. I also “mark all as read” every couple of days and don’t feel bad if there are some things that I get to less often as a result.

Categories really help me. And I finally ended up dividing up the blogs in my reader and creating a category for each day. On Monday, I only need to read the new posts in my ‘Monday’ folder, etc. It means I’m always about a week behind in any particular blog, but not having the pressure of having to read every new post on every blog in there EVERY day does help.

Ugh, it is always about balance isn’t it. Sigh.

Good luck!
