I always wondered if I could blog too? Would anyone be interested in anything I have to say? When I started my own business a few years ago I began a blog. I thought if I wrote about business-y related things I could maintain a connection which would help bring people to my shop. I wrote 3 entries. 3! Plus the third was to tell people I was closing down. Small businesses do not thrive in my village.
So I abandoned that blog. I felt I had failed. I didn't fail. If anything the local community failed me a bit but I didn't want to become bitter and ruin that blog as I wanted my business name to continue (it does on a small scale). Plus putting that on your business blog = bye bye any local customers who may still want to support you!!
So I left it. I read people blogs, I social networked and I got on with living life. But now I'm trying again. Why I hear you ask? (Well I would if I had anyone actually reading this yet) Well my life has changed dramatically since the last blog. I am a very proud mama to an 8 month old boy, I'm about to be married (in 6 sleeps!!) to a wonderful man (don't tell him I called him that his ego would explode) and we're about to move house! I like to do everything all at once it would seem. :-)
I wanted to be able to blog about lots of things, not just business-y stuff but personal things I'm interested in. The list can be exhaustive but I hope to include crafting, mummy related stuff, fixing up our new home, tv, family, my health (and hopefully vent and learn a little on that but not right now). I want to share my life. I want this blog to help me focus mainly on the happy. I can struggle to do that and so I want something to focus my attention. I wouldn't want to read a blog centred on doom and gloom so mine won't be. Hopefully that'll help me to do the same in real life.
So I hope to post often and Id like you to come along for the ride. Come and join me in my journey to focus on the happy. He is. :-)
