I've come to realize that a daily blog update isn't going to happen. I
would love to have that blog with the daily anecdotal bit that is funny
and engaging with a weekly topic or a sometimes
when-did-she-get-so-smart piece that makes everyone stop and think. But
in reality I'm a mom with 5 kids, a part-time job and a full time
household. I don't think I'm doing the people that read this thing any
favors by trying to crank out posts that don't have any energy behind
them. I can't sit down and in five minutes rock out something that I'm
happy with. Well, not daily anyway.
I mentioned here
about working on a vision for what I want the blog to be and how I want
to benefit myself, my family and both my readers. I'm still working on
that. But what I am learning about it in this process is what I don't
want. I don't want mindless dribble. Now while I recognize that most
of the point of this blog IS mindless dribble, it is my specific
mindless dribble. What I am not happy with what happens when I try to
crank out something I don't feel.
This
blog is about my life. It's about being a wife, a mother, and a woman
and hopefully finding balance in it all. It's about what's crazy when
you have five daughters. It's holding a marriage together, keeping my
house from falling down around our ears and just living this one life
that we have been given to the fullest. Some days my cup runneth over.
Some days the cup is just too damn small and now there's a big friggin'
mess and
oh-wait-of-course-don't-all-jump-up-at-once-mom-will-get-it-don't-strain-yourself.
I will keep this as updated as I can. It is
something that I would like to be able to be a little more on top of.
It's one of my current goals (I really should write those down) and
something I'm working on. We'll see how it goes!
