Blogs and Regularity (wow- that sounds really gross)

So, it seems like only yesterday I had a very regularly blogged blog with a Monday giveaway, a Tuesday something or other, a Wednesday Whine, a Thursday something or other

(t's are hard, dammit)

and a Friday Finds.

I was even going to start a new blog with a great online friend until we both burned out at exactly the same moment

because enthusiasm is a fickle bastard ...

(he will love you and leave you and then demand palimony - he will probably even take the toaster and the cool glasses your mom gave you)

And, of course since I am a maker with a making business that I need to make money with

(to buy new glasses)

I always have to be ready to put my blog aside to make things and focus on the people who pay me.

So where this all leaves my blog, I just do not know. I think I need to get back to the reasons I started this blog in the first place; my intention for this thing to talk about myself - to connect with people.

For now I am going to bring back the giveaways (a nice one starting Monday with my girl Xenotees) - hopefully run some upcycled tutorial gifts for the holidays - finish my work smarter series - I have a wholesale series coming up at some point that is mostly written - and keep everyone updated on this pup's activities.

For example we are headed out to Home Depot today to get a new light switch that I broke with the vacuum cleaner handle the other day.

(and yes, I feel a little braggie mentioning this because I realize it not only shows the awesome strength that I put into my housework, but also that I actually vacuumed this week ... and the floor wasn't even crunchy yet)

So, anyhoo, hopefully I will get Mr. Enthusiasm back and keep this baby going and of course for the regularity thing there is always Mr. Metamucil.

(and please forgive me if I don't actually follow through on any of these things - just assume if I'm not here that I am busy making gazillions of dollars making things or maybe I am just lying on the couch watching the Food Network)
