I have learned a few things about a few things with this
venture.
One that when I say I’m going to do something I feel
responsible to complete it in it’s entirety.
I didn't blog every day this month, I've missed like 3 days
and I was up last night feeling guilty about it. Thinking about how I should
make time to write the posts and back post them.
I don’t have time for that. I didn't have time to do them in
the first place so why where would I find the time now? Plus I was the one who
decided to do it. There weren't any consequences if I didn't blog every day.
But this is what I do to myself and my blog is currently
just something I do for fun in my free time.
Which is another thing I learned. If I want to look at
blogging as a ‘career’ there is a lot I need to learn!
There is so much more to blogging in a professional manner
then there is just blogging for fun.
It’s definitely something I've been thinking of doing as
well. With my girls going to both be in full time school in the fall, I will have
a bit more free time.
There is another lesson. I am not always the best time
manager. I used to think I was, but I tend to not give myself enough time to
complete things.
If I want to be a better (professional) blogger I should
possibly look at more planning ahead, among other things.
At the end of the day I really enjoyed some of the topics
that Elizabeth suggested for Blog Every Day in May and it got me talking about
things outside of the foodie zone.

I really like scheduling my posts ahead of time so I don't feel pressure on the day. I do write my Sunday recap every week so it is fresh.
