to post

I have to confess that I'm writing from the top of my head again.  I had thought that the habit would have stuck from the 31 day challenge to be more consistent in blogging.  The habit of writing has stuck,  so with that I am happy.  But I have had many blog post in mind,  but the old "sins" of perfectism,  lazyness & comparison have crept up & have kept me away.  I think I must need the accountablity of the challenge.  I'm surprise that I was just a bit dissapointed that I went from close to 50 views to 2.  After all,  I stopped writing for a reader,  so I shouldn't be dissappointed.  I think I need to go back to having goals & objectives.  So,  I'll write them out here: (remember just writing from the top of my head without a plan).  I want to blog at least once a week.  I'd love for them to be well thought out,  with subjects that I want to share with my kids,  but if that doesn't happen before the week is over,  then,  I'll join in the five minute prompt or story saturday or silent sunday.  I need to draft the subjects or thoughts that I wanted to write about.  For instance,  I had a good thought about writing about the correlation between death & beauty in the fall leaves.  These thoughts came to me during my walks with the dogs around the neighborhood.  Yup,  this is a start... amen....
