…. I suck! I can go on and make excuses as to why I have not been around to update my own blog. I could go on to explain that work, and life has taken over my favourite hobbies? I could go on to explain and make even more random excuses but that would not get me anywhere or make up for my lack of updates, and commitment to this domain.
I do have many great ideas of blog entries to write up, I just never get around to it. I should just easily give up on blogging all together, but I won’t simply because I have been doing this way to long. I have blog archives that go back to 2002! That is 8 years of blog entries, with heart and soul.
One blog that I know of that has some wicked heart is Paddling-Geek.net. The owner Kimm (also my IRL friend) is on her third year instalment of “Comment 4 a Cause”. What is Comment 4 a cause you ask? Well it is exactly as it sounds, just leave a thoughtful comment on her daily blog entries throughout the month of April and she’ll match a dollar of her own money per comment to donate to an Organization Cause. This year she has chosen to support Right to Play: International. Last year she raised $186 for the MS Society. Will she pass her amount raised last year? Only you can make it happen! Why don’t you subscribe to her RSSFeed so you don’t miss a post?
Real life does get in the way of blogging I have found, having a goal like writing a post or two every few weeks just to get yourself back into the swing of things. You’ll burn out if you aim to blog daily..
Thanks for the mention
I think if you can blog daily great, but for the other 98% of us blogging once or twice a week is about our limit without getting burnt out.
I really like her idea too, and have been leaving her some comments.
You don’t have to apologize for not blogging, hun. I am subscribed to all the blogs that I read so I know when people update. Don’t worry about that. I’ll always know when you get the urge to post.
I’ve been leaving Kimm lots of comments!
If blogging is a personal hobby, you can do it as often or infrequently as you want! There are no hard&fast rules for personal blogs, at least not any that should be taken seriously.
