Well, despite my good intentions.... we're in the same boat this year. I'm right now, as we speak, trying to pick a calendar to order. The only plus to this situation is they are now marked over 60% off!
Unfortunately, this isn't the only part of my life I've been slacking in. If it were, I'd feel like I was doing fabulously! More often than not, I feel like I'm either rushing to finish something in time, or just not doing it at all. Blogging would be the perfect example.... When I started my blog in 2008 I totaled a whopping 126 posts that year, 2009-81, 2010-54, 2011-26! What the heck??? The last 6 months I've averaged one post a month and some FANTASTIC things happened in those months. WHY MONICA, WHY? I've had no motivation to blog, and if that's the case, I've been wondering, why don't I just bag it? But then the other day, I had to look back to find a picture and as I looked, I remembered why I started this bloggy journey in the first place. First and foremost it's our families journal, the everyday little things, the ups and the downs, complete with pictures. Secondly, it's a place to connect with friends, both new and old, I love the comments of encouragement and love that I receive, from all kinds of friends. Third, it's a place for me to write and express myself, something I enjoy for the most part. I miss it, but I'm not sure how to make myself get back to it. I had the chance to stop for just a few minutes at Ann's house yesterday and she shared with me the books that Chad had printed of her blog to surprise her with for Christmas, and I realized as I flipped through them....that I need to have my blog printed, and I need to keep up my blog if only to have a record for my family! Before I can have the last year printed, I need to do some catching up..... It's going to be a pretty boring book with only 26 posts! Hopefully, this is the kick in the pants I need to get me blogging again.... I miss you all!
