Blogging in 2016

Despite the cough medicine with codeine I took last night, I couldn't sleep. I can't seem to get healthy, now dealing with bronchitis...it's just lovely.

I decided to go back to the beginning of my blog and read. I loved it. The pictures posted with my entries that I hadn't laid eyes on in years, remembering where I was and what God has brought us through...it was just what I needed.

I also realized that I missed blogging.

I first blogged for fun, then as a journal to keep track of the kids, sort of like a scrapbook and then I was stepping into the world of reviewing product, networking and paid advertisement. And then I let my domain lapse and it was harder than I imagined getting things back up and running. I lost all of my following as well as my desire to write.

Life got busy and I decided to only write when I felt prompted to, and that was nice. It was nice to not feel the pressure of keeping up with the blog and just writing occasionally. I realize though, it was was quite the outlet for me...even if it wasn't all super deep or inspiring.

So, I've decided to make it a goal to blog at least once a week and get back to documenting life. I'm hopeful to print my blog into books this next year since I'm not a traditional scrapbooker :)
