The First One

I started blogging years ago. It lasted a month. I can't remember what I wrote about but I decided to stop writing because I had two readers and nothing really to talk about. I'm pretty sure that I deleted that blog or it "disappeared" into internet oblivion. A year or so later my new obsession was digital scrap-booking. I made a new blog and posted some of the kits I created. I even sold a few. I lost interest again after a few months and deleted it. I learned a few things from those failed attempts at blogging. 


1. I wasn't ready for the commitment. I had no idea how much work keeping a blog was. I'm pretty sure I spent more hours trying to set my page up and design it than I actually did blogging. 

2. I was quite boring back then. I really had nothing to talk about because I didn't DO anything. I was a mom, a wife and a computer gamer. That's it. I didn't go out. I didn't buy things. I don't even think I was back in college yet. My life bored me. I knew it wasn't going to entertain anyone else. 


3. I suck at being creative. Sure I did manage to make some pocket change selling digital scrap-booking supplies. I might could have made a small side income. If I had stuck with it. Which leads me to 4. 


4. I have the attention span of...how does one finish that sentence? Rephrase. I have a very small attention span. When I get interested in something I go out it full force. I give 110% of my time and effort. Which usually leads to burn out and finding the delete blog button. 


So what is different this time? Well life has went on and I'm older, wiser and my interests have changed. Unfortunately, those 4 things up there...still apply. But my hope this time is to change all of that. I'm going to write about things I enjoy and hope that you enjoy them with me. It will be random musings, daily life ramblings, shopping trips, school work despair, books, reviewing my new beauty favorites, playlists, frustrations, triumphs, joys and family milestones. It will be more things that I don't even know right now but it will be mine. My piece of the world wide web. And I think that's pretty cool.
