In The Groove
by Carolyn ~ August 16th, 2007. Filed under: Uncategorized.I don’t know why I can’t get back in the groove of writing. Even the paid blogging juices are wanning. I’ve really had to work at them this week to get done what needed to be done. I know, I know. I have too much on my plate, and at some point, I am going to burn out. There probably is an ounce of truth to that. But, I can’t give up. I won’t, I won’t, I won’t.
I have a whole list of things I want to blog about here, so its not that I lack for subject matter. Its just a matter of sitting down and doing it. I have had a head cold all week…thanks to Ethan. Maybe not, his was more down in his chest. The doctor said bronchitis, with atypical symptoms of asthma. So far, this junk hasn’t moved down in to my chest. A little cough, but its dry. Most my head and nose. So, that could be part of my lack of enthusiasm for anything.
And then, of course, there is the time factor, but that doesn’t count. Because I have had time to do other things (like change the layout. I WILL get settled back down here with just one. Its just when I change, its like buying new shoes. You have to try on a dozen pair before you can settle on the one you really really like). Well, I really really like this Wordpress press theme I’m using (you should be seeing brown, lots and lots of brown). I like it so much that I have the same theme over at A Prairie View. Just a different picture. I know its hot, hot, hot out there. But, word-association for me is “August=the beginning of fall”. I have lots of fall graphics and such, so my seaside babes are put away for another season, and I’m dragging out all my fall fun stuff.
So, if I have time to play with the look, I DID have time to put words to paper (ok, keystrokes to screen). My routine has been interupted this week thought with various different things. Last night we ate supper with David’s mom and dad, and it was almost 9:00 before we got home. Tuesday night, Ethan wasn’t home, so we went on a little mini-date — just because. And that put us home around 8:30. Monday, I think I was home, but sorting through some of the stuff we brought in from the camper, getting stuff ready so we can camp again this weekend.
I do plan on writing up some entries while we camp, even though I won’t have internet service out there. If the energy is there, and the words flow, I’ll just get them wrote up into notepad and save to a CD. I did that last weekend with a few paid entries. So, it can be done. Like I said, I have a list of things I really want to get wrote here, so this would be a good weekend to get that done. On the go. Never ending!

*LOL* Have to laugh about the “Things that make you smile” post…Yeah, I smile too, when I get those Paypal notices!!
I’ve had to dig deep this week too…Ops for me have been kind of dry up until this week, and than I got bombed!!…The fill-ins are hard when you get bombed, and I’m sure that I ended up repeating some things in my fill-ins, just because I had written so many I couldn’t remember all that I had written about…
Anyway, I like the new look….I am still searching for that new look for vblog….Want something new, but the ones that I try out, just don’t “fit”…maybe will play with it this weekend.
