I joined “Writing 101” in hopes to stay on my blogging game. I’ve struggled with keeping up with my blog since I started it five years ago. I talk about that often in a lot of my posts. These posts usually start off apologizing for how long it’s been since I last blogged. I have a lot to say, but I always wonder why people would even be interested in anything I said. So I would go months and months without updating anything. I’ve slowly learned over the years to stop worrying about what other people think. After all, I will be 30 next year – my amount of “things I worry about” have greatly diminished.
I’ve recently gotten back into running. Back in 2011/2012, I was running seven miles 2-3 times a week. I know I can do it, but I’ve gotten a little older and gained some weight, so it will be a challenge. My goal is to run a half marathon next spring. There will be an influx of posts about exercise now.
I enjoy cooking. LOVE it. I love experimenting with new foods. I watch just about every show on Food Network. I’m always in awe of how these chefs can think of their feet. I learn a lot through these cooking shows. One of the bests feelings is watching someone smile and tell you how good their meal is. I don’t do it for recognition. I wouldn’t care if people didn’t know who made their meals. I just like making people full and happy.
I’ve recently been diagnosed as an insomniac – but let’s be real, all insomniacs sort of already know that’s what they have but wait a really long time to just “deal with it.” I’ve had sleeping issues since I was in high-school. So I’ll be blogging about my journey through these sleep study logs.
I love writing. I need to jot down my thoughts or the thoughts just rumble around inside my head and I cannot concentrate on the task at hand. One of these days I will start working on that book I’m going to publish…
Feel free to poke around my blog and sign my guestbook!
XOXO

I enjoy your honesty! Keep on writing! 🙂
Thanks!
I’m sort of getting back into the habit of staying fit too… So I find myself relating to that bit a great deal more than you can imagine.
Cant wait to read more from you. All the best!
Thanks! I look forward to reading about yours as well!
I already did write about it a bit. Check it out here

Wow…you sound a lot like me, except for the insomnia bit (though I’ve struggled with that for a while too). I’m looking forward to following your journey!
Thank you for stopping by. Do you still have insomnia?
No, I’m able to sleep quite well for the most part. Though occasionally, I am jolted awake by panic attacks.
Oh no! Panic attacks seem awful!!
They are. But I’ve gotten used to them. Sort of.
I dont think you can ever “get used to it.” Maybe learn how to work through them, which, I guess, in turn makes it feel like you are “getting used” to it. Either way – best of luck to you on that! It cannot be easy!
It isn’t.
But fiction provides a safe haven when my own thoughts start to turn against me. And writing certainly helps.
Cooking is therapeutic! Eating it is even better! 🙂
Totally agree!

Blogging can be a really tough chore if you fall out of a routine. But, there’s no need to apologize for long hiatuses!
I apologized too much. All the time. 🙂
Thanks for sharing! 🙂
Of course! Thank you for stopping over to my blog!
