Motivation, Time Allowance, Relaxation

How do we get it done??? I motivate myself every day to work on my blog post. I have it written on my daily to do list. But posting is the of the last things on my list. I enjoy writing about my adventures in life. 5 years ago I began a blog. Then my life was much different, I did not need as much sleep to restore my energy. My body has demanded it these days.
Five years ago I was single, one child still at home and in school, going to school myself, working at times 2 jobs and helping my parents start up the farm. I enjoyed my free time (somehow I had at that time) riding my little Sporty...Harley Sportster Motorcycle. I enjoyed my rides alone or with company, I would take rides any where from 20 miles to 400 miles a day. I would immediately come home and write about my experiences. I would describe the curves in the road, smells along the way, reason for the ride, and the feeling I felt from the time I started the motor to the time I pulled off my helmet.
I just cant seem to find writing a top priority these days. But I so want to be able to describe the curves in the road, smells along the way, reasons for the day and the things I have felt during my day. At this time in my life the curves could be obstacles or different way of doing something, smells of home cooking, sigh of relief when a calf is born, and explanation for why my life has changed.
I will continue to encourage myself to share my life with old and new friends. To me blogging is just like journaling which is another thing I don't seem to be able to find time for. Blogging to me is journaling with pictures and being able to share with friends. Not waiting til you die and someone finds your journal in an estate sale. Blogging is instant information of people. These past few months while exploring the blogging world I look forward to checking on my friends in the blog world. Sort of like watching a soap opera but much better. Wanting to know if the homemade bread was a success or if the coyote found all the chicks, or finding a new recipe to try. I want to share my experiences hoping to inspire someone else to try homemade butter milk or made from scratch chocolate chip cookies.
To all whom read my blog don't give up I am here and hope to write more as time allows. I am trying to organize myself to make time. It seems to be a relaxing aspect of my busy...not hectic just busy life.
Stay tuned for more!!!

  1. Popping in to say hello and thank you for visiting my blog. I look forward to reading about more of your blog. I totally understand when you say that you have trouble finding time to blog. Just post when you feel like it, we'll always be there. Some do it daily - some do it weekly and some even monthly. It should be a pleasurable experience, not a chore that has to be done. I've shared my ups and downs with my loyal followers and sometimes I thank God they have been there to give me a helping hand.
    Take care. Maa (Susan)

  2. Hi there! thanks for coming and visiting my blog, I thought I would pop over and return the favour and have a little read of yours :) I sympathise with you on having trouble finding the time to blog, as I myself am at that point right now. I used to blog almost daily and now that I have started a new business at home it's only when I get the chance, and I can honestly say I miss it! But we do what we can manage, and that is the beauty of being able to join and become followers of our favourite blogs, for when our blog friends find the time to write a post or two we are able to see it on our reading list and pop over for a catchup :) I'm off for a wee looksie around your blog, oh and I think your photo on your header is Amazing!!

    Regards, Ruth @ Come Smell The Roses xx
