When I first started blogging, it wasn’t a record of my day or a way to keep up with my internet friends. It was just a creative outlet for me. I’d sit down and think of an event in my day and how I could turn it into a post. How could I write about my trip to the grocery store, a tv show I watched or a conversation I’d had that was more than just retelling what happened? I’d try to give it a moral, or turn it into a rant or even try to be funny.
Now it’s different because most of my readers are friends (irl and in bloggy land) and I feel some sort of obligation to convey my life to them you. But I’m so OVER posting about my life. Right now there are two blankets, one set of princess shoes, a half empty sippy cup, a ribbon baton, two empty glasses, a breast pump, my keys and 3 things of lipgloss within 3 feet of me. My kids are asleep and the highlight of my day is THIS. The most productive thing I’ll do all day is give Lydia a bath and spend 6 hours nursing Asa.
I desperately wish I had watched Oprah so I could virtually roll my eyes at her. I wish I had a meeting that was long and boring so I could complain about it. I wish I had a funny story to share. I wish I had a neat memory or even a black and white photo to post.
But I don’t.
Right now I’m in sahm-land. I’m happy to be here. I’m just sorry it’s not very blog worthy.
(ps–I just remembered my other productive thing–I made chili in the crockpot. There you go. Blog-worthy.)
To me anything you write is blogworthy!! Love you writing, keep it coming.
I feel you!! I am feeling today is a good day b/c I actually got to dry my hair! My newborn has his first cold and my 3 and half year old has made her way into our king size bed for the last 2 nights! So all four of us in one bedroom! Glad to see I am not the only one here in SAHM land with no “blog worthy” thoughts!!
I just love reading your blog. You have a great way with words. Can’t wait to read more!
My blog is blugh! Its ok…you have 2 kidas at home with you!!!
girl – that’s what makes this a fun place to blog – we are your friends, and we want to hear about your piles of mess and the laundry that needs to be done and that you haven’t dusted since you moved in 3 years ago… wait – that’s me… 😉
SAHM-land is very interesting and blog-worthy to us SAHMs. We love it here!
Two words – Total Phone. Find 2 friends and get them both on the same line, it feels JUST like a conference call without the headache!
I’m right there with ya in SAHM land. You’ve read my blog, rarely does my day include anything I would consider a must-blog-moment.
But you’re absolutely right, I wouldn’t trade it for the world!!!!!!
I have had those weeks and weeks and weeks where I got nothin. Your readers are loyal and will come back to check in even on the mundane 🙂
I don’t know that I’ve ever written anything blogworth :)… the life of a sahm def has its ups and downs. Glad you’re sharing both here!
And just saying that *is* blog-worthy. 🙂
I think these posts about your normal days are wonderful to read! 🙂
sometimes it is nice to hear that someone else is in the same life stage and you aren’t alone, especially when the to-do list is a mile long and all you get accomplished is dinner or one load of laundry. thanks for sharing life and letting others know, myself included, we aren’t alone.
Girl, as you can tell from comments, we’ve all either been there or we are there now (ME!!).
Honestly, it’s kind of nice to know the Diva of Diction is in a slump! 🙂 I always feel like my blog is just a recap because when I finally do sit down to type something out, that’s all that is in my head. Even though throughout the day I’ll think, “Oh, that would make a good post.” When you’re outnumbered by your kids and your life revolves around them, it’s hard to get your (or mine, at least) head above water long enough to get some perspective, which is really what a moral or a rant or being funny comes from. So hang in there! When six hours turns into four and then two, you’ll get your mojo back. And I love reading all your stuff, even though sometimes I’m way behind!
The way you write about those mundane sahm things makes them blog worthy. you are a great writer, that’s why I visit. Me? I’m a hack, wishing I could make breast pumps and lip gloss blog worthy.
honey you’re doing a great job on the blog! and being a sahm, that’s something of a cross between, “oh my word, how fabulous..that I get to raise my own kids!” and “What the heck was I thinking to stay home all day…with little people, who have little words and make me work three times as hard as I would in an office!” It gets the best of us, that’s for sure. I am delighted to find your blog babycakes.
