Where to go?

I started thinking after reading this post from Dumb Mom over at Parenting by Dummies ... wait ... read mine first ... then go visit her!!!!

I started thinking about where this blog is going.

Do I know where this blog is going?  Do I have a plan for this little place of internet?

not really

I mean, sure, making money from here would be freakin' awesome, but I don't even know where to start with that.  I'm kinda everywhere ... kinda random.  I don't really have a niche, and the five people who read me will tell you that.

yes, I know I have more than 5 readers ... maybe 10


Do I wanna be a power mommy blogger?

When I think of blogging part of me still thinks of the activists and the crazies ... my dad looks at me with that 'uh huh' look when I talk to him about it.

Plus ... I read some freakin' amazing blogs, and I think -- I can never be as awesome as they are or as witty as they are or as funny as they are.

why do I compare so much

I found this picture which totally sums up where I am...

Do I go up ... or down?  Of course I don't want to go down, but I know me, and I know that I'm bad about starting things strongly and then letting them go.  I tried cross-stitching, and I don't think I've ever finished a project.

So ... where do I go now?

Yes, I know my kids are the cutest, but I want visitors to comment on more than that.  I want them to say, great post ... you moved me ha or you had me laughing the whole time double ha.  But how do I do this?

Do I start hosting giveaways?  and like force people to follow me to win whatever?

Do y'all even like giveaways?

Do I start hosting a MEme?  yeah right ... like I'm creative enough to out something fun and unique  


I see other peeps who have been long for a shorter amount of time than me with like 500 followers.  How the poop did they get there?

yes ... I know ... the spent time on it.  They follow a ton of people.  They actively look for products to review and give away.  They make time for their blog.

I pass time at work.

but still ... I'm a bit jealous.

My photography skills have increased though ... fo sho!

now if I could just figure out where that road is leading ... sigh ...

On another note (I know I'm writing alot of nothing today)

This is my 194th post ... which means I could reach my 200th post by this weekend!  People like congratulate you on stuff like this.  and they do give-aways and swaps and host fun things.

I'd do a give-away ... anyone want a moody 2-year old?

I'd give-away the book I just finished reading ... except Leah ripped the dust jacket off and colored on it

I'd offer to re-design someone's blog ... but really I don't need a giveaway to do that.  I'd be honored if someone even asked me.

I'd tell you to send me questions and do a post with your answers ... do you have any questions?

Maybe I'll host some like theme - ed blog hop thingie.  I wonder what the theme should be ...

I don't know how big or little this blog will be, but I really need to stop freaking out when I lose followers was it something I said or don't get comments on a post.  

This is what I'm going to do:

and figure out how to be a better blogger ... or something like that ... I'm open for suggestions!
