This I Do for Me


I have fretted and fretted over my blog recently. I haven't seemed to have the time, resources or inspiration to post recently. I feel like I've posted just enough to maybe string some readers along. I've felt guilty for not updating because I feel an obligation to my blog. And to the readers, maybe?

I figured if I couldn't do a "proper" post, I just wouldn't post at all.

I long to be inspirationally artistic like Teesha. Consistent and relevant like Inthefastlane. (Love her most recent "I am" post.) Engaging like Mabel's House. Sweetly industrious like Posy Gets Cozy. Witty like I Should Be Folding Laundry. My list of comparison is endless. It's like I'm in high school again.

I had an insight into myself this morning.

My husband has said it before: "You're an all or nothing kind of person."

I totally get it.

So, I've decided. This blog is for me. Oh, I really want you to share it with me, and I love receiving comments, but I gotta get back to the freedom of blogging. Blogging what interests me, no matter how small, or unfortunately, infrequent, a post it may be.

I know what you mean. Some days I feel like I write the most boring things some days and that no one could possibly care what I am thinking! As for your comment you posted on my blog, lets not try to meet accidentally...let's plan it! I can meet you at Sam's and we can have lunch! Or, since I need a haircut so terribly, I could come your way! :)

This is the first time I've wandered into your blog and I completely understand what your talking about. I'm trying to blog for myself lately too.

But the real reason I decided to break my normal look and lurk policy and comment here is because of the picture. It's romantic and beautiful. I love it. Amazing.
