This is going to be one of thooooose posts…

One where I tell you that I have had bloggers block. Nothing to write about. No life stories to share. No funny little somethin’ somethings. No nothings. I open my dashboard to write a post. Thinking, really I should, and then I read other blogs, hundreds of them, until I am tired and over staring at the screen. I post short updates with no real content because really, I have nothing left to say. I think I have identified the problem. And it is ongoing.
My life looks the same. Again.
And seriously you have all heard it before. But it is almost November {I should know, I’ve been sober this whole month!} and life is put-putting along just the way it did this time last year. And not that there is anything wrong with it. I have a wonderful husband, a great family and extended family and extended extended family, a job I like and challenges me, a business on the side that I love, a blog I usually love and all this other great stuff. Nothing wrong here but in some ways there is. My life, has stalled.
It would probably backfire and blow a giant puff of smoke given half the chance.
And all I do about it is whinge, really. Whine. Sook. Complain. And start the same life again tomorrow. Often I blog about it. Attempt to motivate myself into action, but let’s face it, motivation is a fleeting thing. And then life happens. The way it has always happened.
And right now it is frustrating me. The same complaints. THIS complaint. I want something different. Something new and shiny I can learn or explore or develop. Something exciting. Oh goodness I just thought, if Hubby reads this he’s going to think I’m up for a trade in. Noooo. Of course not. I love him and my family and the people. I even love my town and all that sorta stuff. I don’t know. I just want to shake things up.
Maybe I’ll go blonde again…

  1. I feel like that too..I'm going to actually post something tonight that I am going to do for the next week instead of blogging..to catch up on my reading…..of blogs I follow..and man I follow alot!

  2. Hi Melissa,Sorry to hear you are in a bit of a rut. Have you considered a seachange? Who knows what the great unknown could hold? Or alternatively, what about studying something new? Or a new hobby? (boy, does that sound as lame as I think it does?) Sorry I couldn't offer anything more earth-shakingly inspirational. :)

  3. I understand this and have been feeling like this for the past few years, the only thing that has been changing as the time passes is my weight [going up!].My remedy? I'm heading on a big plane to a cold place to discover my joie de vivre.I hope you manage to find yours again.xxx

  4. I think we all get in those same ruts. The ones where all you can do is sigh and huff and puff but you have no plan to get yourself out of it. Just keep an open mind and the satisfaction you're looking for might hit you right between the eyes. Oh…and go blonde. I love me a hot blonde.

  5. Mel, paint a picture of what you want your life to look like in a years time. Literally, or with images.Then make a list of the steps you need to take to get there.And then do those steps.Works for me.
