Spinning Plates...and 30 for 30.


Hi there. Seems like I haven't been around for awhile. I've been off doing what I do best, "dropping the ball", spinning plates...you know, the usual. This blog is more of a hobby than a priority but, it seems that I've even been "dropping the ball" with my priorities lately, which is leaving me in a place of self loathing. I do not like myself right now. I'm pretty much focused on the things that I do not do well. But, oh well....I'll get over it.

I digress...I was thinking of doing a 30 for 30 challenge, a 30 posts in 30 days sort of thing. I call it a challenge because that is what it will be for me to do this. I'm not talking about 30 "meaty" posts but, a little of everything. I also thought that I might compartmentalize the blog a little more like, have a "theme" for each day. There are so many things of meaning and substance that I would like to post about but, often time prohibits me from doing that. So, if I divide the week up into segments, I think I can do that. So....

The little schedule of sorts will be as follows:
Mondays: Motherhood/Family
Tuesdays: Food
Wednesdays: Health and Wellness (something I'm passionate about)
Thursdays: ?
Fridays: Free day (write whatever I want)
Saturdays: More Family
Sundays: Our Church Plant

That's what it looks like for now. Some posts might be short and sweet while others will be a little longer. We'll see. I'm open to any suggestions for Thursdays or any other day for that matter. My purpose for this blog was not to become a "self-help" or "how-to" blog because my main goal was to keep a log of my life and family. But, I have been toying around with the idea of maybe doing a "fashion on the cheap" kind of post. What do you think? I'd love to hear your feedback.

"Fashion on the cheap" sounds like a great idea...you have fantastic taste in outfits! How about doing that on Thursdays?

I think "Fashion on the cheap" sounds like a good idea as well. I'm really good at the cheap part, but not so much the fashion, to my dismay.

I've been bad about keeping my blog updated as well. I was going to challenge myself to post every day for the month of February, but I messed up that plan on the first day!

Thanks, Anonymous! Good idea.
Jenny, after I posted this I thought, I was talking about being bad at prioritizing and not getting things done and then I go and try to add something else to the list. Let's see how I do. :)
