I have the fear of the blog

by Sunny Daydreame on November 20, 2009

It happens every time I get away from my blog for a while.  I sit down and think, “What can I write that anyone would read?”  It’s been so long since I’ve posted, I wonder if anybody still reads.  When was the last time I posted? (goes off to look) OCTOBER 28! Practically a whole month has passed without me sitting down here. What happened?

Oh yeah, I remember–We went to a wedding. Then when we got back I got my wisdom teeth removed (4 impacted teeth, lucky me). Sunday, while I was still recovering from wisdom teeth extraction, Wiggles got sick (Roseola we think). After a few night of getting little to no sleep, I had to recover a few days before sitting back down at the computer.

Here I am. I’m not sure we are out of the chaos yet. Looking around the house, I’m actually quite sure we haven’t recovered from the chaos yet. (Do I get a “get out of house cleaning free” pass for this week?) I do think I am getting my feet back under me, and the late nights when I couldn’t sleep have given me some “thinking time” that I wouldn’t have had otherwise.

I’m thinking I need to stay up till after midnight every night.

Live Enthusiastically

October 8, 2009

“Anything worth doing is worth doing right.”
For years, I have hammered that saying in my mind. I live with internalized cliches that tell me to expect perfection every time, the first time.  This constant demand for personal perfection does not leave any room for me to be a beginner and learn a new skill or [...]

Create your own Bed and Breakfast

October 5, 2009

Melissa over at The Inspired Room posted an article last week about Creating a B&B in your own bedroom.  Be honest, you would love to live in a Bed and Breakfast all the time–fluffy pillows, soft bedding, and a jacuzzi tub–sounds heavenly doesn’t it.  I would love to have a bedroom retreat one day.  Actually [...]
