So this one time at band camp I made this crazy commitment to write every single day for an entire month. And then, even on the days that I wanted to quit, figuring no one would even care anyway, I powered through and posted every.single.day. … right up through the 29th. On the 30th, the very last day of the month, I was visiting my sister, where we began to talk about my crazy commitment and I was proud to say I’d stuck with it. Then? I forgot to post that day. And THEN almost three more weeks went by before I even posted again.

Yep…that happened.

I even had my last post of the month all planned out in my head but well…yea..Long story short, quite a while ago I came to the conclusion that I’m the “World’s Okayest Mom“. Over the last month and a half, I’ve come to the conclusion that I can add “World’s Okayest Blogger” to my trophy wall.

Don’t believe me? Check out my credentials:

Photos: Sure, most posts have them…but anymore, 90% of the time they are recycled from my instagram account.

Posting: Writing thoughtful, well composed posts takes time…a lot of time. I honestly wonder how most working-mom-bloggers do it. Maybe they just don’t sleep? I value sleep. And as much as I can possibly get.

Content: I have all sorts of content ideas…I wear some pretty cute outfits,  cook some pretty awesome dinners, have two cute/funny kids and not to mention all sorts of DIY projects going on around the house/property. I’d venture to guess that maybe, maybe 50% of those things will actually make it to the blog.

Other: I’m sure there’s more, but I can’t think of them right now…I think that’s a credential in and of itself.

I actually really enjoyed the NaBloPoMo challenge. I’d like to say it ignited a wildfire for blogging, though I’m pretty sure based on my 3 week hiatus you’d call me a liar. But. I can honestly say it did reignite a spark. I always have the best of intentions with blogging but life outside of my computer tends to take priority.

My goal is to be better…but isn’t it always? Sometimes I think I sound like a broken record with this. Hey, add that to my list of credentials!

Sometimes the hardest part about coming back after a blog break is figuring out where to start.

So if you’re still around, hi. Thanks. I’ve missed you.
