So here is the thing – after I attempted to start blogging last time – I got so hung up on what to do next…I just froze! So I’m trying again. Wondering why? Me too! Let’s look at a few of the reasons.
- Boredom – We don’t have cable. My husband built a server so we watch a few shows, but once the baby goes to bed at 8 – I have the night to do whatever I want.
- Curiosity – I’m curious to see if I can make myself stick to it. It’s a personal blog – if others read it, great! But I want to know if I can really document my life. I used to do Xanga (remember that….if not, it was basically an online diary) and that went away almost as quickly as it started (apparently, it is still here, but lets say it was popular almost 15 years ago with my friends, so not sure if it is still the same ting). I always thought blogging would move on to something else, and maybe it will. But so far, it’s proven it is here to stay.
- Desire to Learn – I truly have a desire to learn. I skip around a lot – Duolingo for a month to practice French, read/do a sales handbook to get better at work, etc. You name it, I probably want to learn it – or learn some form of it.
While this is a personal blog, I’ll also use it to document as I start something new. Right now, I plan to start the following:
- Learning to Cook from Scratch
- Learning to Sew
- Learning ins and outs of WordPress, SEO and Blog Marketing
So if you want to join in the journey, please feel free to subscribe or save the blog to your reader. Fair warning – I don’t know how often I’ll post, or how often I’ll jump between topics!! If you have a suggestion, I’m listening. In the meantime – I’ll get started pouring my thoughts out.
