When I was putting together the newsletter Friday I realised something…
There are very few entirely writing personal posts here anymore. We have the Steal Her Style, the outfit posts {with little pieces of life thrown in}, Confident You and recipes and maybe a comment on a news article or something here and there. How did THAT happen? I was a little taken aback actually. I still consider this a personal blog. Sure personal style features heavily but I never imagined it would be the whole deal.
Weird.
But not, you see. I thought about it for a while, decided to chat with Hubby about it. It’s nothing, he said. We don’t get out much that’s all. It still played on my mind a little. All weekend in fact. Perhaps I’d forgotten how to blog about life and the silly things that happen to us {a direct quote form my blog description}. So I thought I’d sit down and write something, see how I went. No, this isn’t that post. Everyone hates those I have nothing to blog about woe is me posts. Trust me, this may look, smell and read like one of those but it’s not. That post sort of was, this one I really tried for it not to be. HA. That post was a big fat nothing. Literally a cursor staring at me for ages.
Life, it’s just not that interesting around here at the moment.
And I’m not going to force it.
So in case you were wondering where it all went. That’s where. It’ll probably be back. Don’t worry.
Over and out!
Hi! I’m Suger; Chief Blogger at Suger Coat It. Blogging since 1901; love a casual ootd, taking photos + writing about things that irk or inspire me. I love wine and cheese, long days in the sun at the beach and spending time with my family. I make stuff for the internet. Which means I take photos, create content, write copy and devise social media plans for personal brands, small businesses and bloggers. You know, living the sweet life.
I think it’s a bit akin to something like winter hibernation. My blog is pretty slow at the mo’ too. A combination of being busy work wise and not so busy personal life wise. No one wants to do anything, it’s too cold, we all just want to stay inside snuggled up on the couch. But I still feel like I need to pull my finger out. Perhaps we should just go for somewhere in between 🙂
You’re probably right. I’m so not going anywhere or doing anything remotely like I do in the warmer months. And not only because it’s dark by 5pm! Eeeeek. I’m all over the scheduled content thing but I just can’t find the words for life stuff. Better luck next season, right? 😛
Maybe you’re just on winter blog volume!
You know what, maybe you’re right!
My blog seems to be running out of steam too. I have Irritation Monday, Whimsical Wednesday, Wednesday’s Words on a Friday and Sunday Selections. None of which is personal life writing. I don’t do anything to write about.
I think it’s the same thing here. Not much to report. And what we do do it doesn’t really lend itself to blog content. Better luck to us both. xo
