back to regular ol’ blogging

JUMP! JUMP!

so i’ve given up on the weekly updates. sorry folks! i know that many of you liked them but, really, they were just a regurgitation of what i have going on over at flickr, and it was starting to feel like a chore and a redundancy. i’m not really sure what attracted me to blogging in the first place. it was a long time ago that i started this! almost six years! and in the beginning, i did it because i had a freelance client that wanted a blog so i installed it and gave it a try. then i wrote about movies and TV until i found knitting and had a family.

well, i want to get back to that part of my life that i loved to blog about before i got sucked down the baby hole and lost my will to blog. i’m doing lots of fun things and i’d much rather just update here when i have something fun to talk about than update every week because i have to.

i’m going to write up posts when i can and schedule them to go! let’s hope i can get this train rolling again. i am still planning on updating the site as soon as i’m done with the freelance i’m working on. i have some ideas for a pared down design.

    Isn’t it interesting how blogging evolves with our lives? Or in my case, doesn’t evolve? I’ll look forward to whatever you chose to post!!

    Keeping it fresh and real and non-chore-like is so key. Can’t wait to see more shots like this one:)

    Perfect! I’m so glad you’re going to be blogging this way, it’s going to be much more enjoyable for you, and I think it will really show in your blog. It’s something I hope to do… eventually. I’m going to just consider my blog to be on vacation for a bit… hmmm, in fact I think that I’m going to post that today – thanks for the inspiration, and optimism.
