I've been in a blogging funk for the last 6 months or so. While it's easy for me to spend time READING blogs, I just haven't been able to muster enough strength to write my own. I have plenty to write about and plenty of pictures to post (cuz let's face it, blog posts are much more fun with a picture, right?). But I have always been an inconsistent journal writer, and that's what my blog is, a modernized journal. My journal-keeping mimics my scrapbooking efforts as well. I have attempted on several occasions to organize my pictures in a meaningful, fun way. But to my dismay, I spend HOURS and HOURS trying to design a page and end up disliking the outcome. It's not a gratifying experience. But you give me a sewing machine, a tile saw, or any other power tool and I am as happy as can be! In a nutshell...I guess blogging is not a creative outlet for me, as it is for so many others. While I LOVE reading blogs (it's a source of much inspiration for my projects), I just don't have the energy to blog about my own. I do have another blog that is in the works. This one will be a journal for all my sewing, craft & home provement projects. It's my hope to be more consistent with that blog at least. In the meantime, I WILL do better about keeping a record of our family. They bring me so much joy--it's a shame not to write about it.
