Keeping active

Over the past two years, I have tried to keep this blog active with posts. I made a deal with myself to try to write the same number of posts or even more post than the previous year. It has been a success so far. This is number 115 for the year 2009, one more than last year. I never wanted to be the person to start one of these and then stop or lose interest, and as I look back at the achieves I think I have done a good job at that. This has been active for going on five years.

There are times throughout the year when I just want to take a break from writing. And I do. A week here, two weeks there. What do you write about when you are going through a boring point in the year? 'Ho hum, I woke up this morning. I went to work. I came home. Blah blah blah.' Who wants to read something like that? I try to find fun or interesting things to write about.

  1. Anything more than once a week is a blog that beats the average! 52 posts a year = success. My issue is trying to rotate topics so I don't feel like I'm whining about the same junk all the time.

  2. I do have those thoughts as I write. I re-read what is on the screen and think....have I written this before? It feels like it. And then comes the process of digging through the archives to try and find it. Eventually I give up if I don't find the subject or tags after a couple of minutes.
