I used to blog all the time. Not because I had 10000 followers, I am pretty sure I had maybe 2, and one was likely my mom.... I blogged because I liked to have them to look back on and remember things, I blogged because it is kind of a way to just get whatever out and off my chest. I blogged because I enjoyed it.
Lately I feel like I have forgotten myself. Forgotten to take the time out for the things I enjoy. For photography, for blogging for whatever else interests me. What even interests me anymore?
I went to a full time job, which is on a computer so I guess partly I don't want to come home after 8 hours at a desk and type and stare at a screen some more. Both blogging and photos require screen time. Maybe that is part of why I have not been doing it.
My kids are bigger, not so many funny memories with them, two have moved out and 2 wish they could (2.5 more years) but I have grand kids now yes Grand Kids My oldest just had her second little girl, and let me tell you THEY are one of the things I enjoy most in this world and I will and do take time to spend with them every moment I can.
Its amazing how cool grand kids are. Like so cool. They are like your kids but you don't have to tell them no, or have them hate you. You get to tell them YES and spoil them and when they start to be to rotten to handle you send them home to mama. Its great. Its in fact the best.
At one time I had a blog that I used to post recipes and things, and I had a blog where I was trying to lose weight (still has not happened) I had a blog about life in general. But life in general is ALL those things, its my food and my recipes and now my newest obsession my "instant pot". Its the fact that I want to lose weight but also want to eat candy and french fries (Nacho fries are back at Taco Bell btw)
SO this blog now will be my one and only. Life, weight loss, recipes (some that go with weight loss and some that hinder it completely) It will likely 90% be about my grand kids and the funny things they do, because once again I want something to remind me of them, and this is one place I feel its great to do that.
I hope to be back, not daily but I am going to aim for weekly. I want to do an image on my camera NOT just my cellphone and a blog and a recipe each week. Not for anyone to read, not for you who might be reading but for myself, for memories and maybe for a legacy of some sort. It will be my me time, and I am looking forward to it!
