My difficulties Blogging


As you are probably aware of I don't blog often. I can give you many excuses why I have difficulties blogging.

Here's my top Six


  1. I would rather sleep, with a job like mine sleep is always a priority.

  2. What the heck will I blog about, as a Sleep Doula does it always have to be about sleep?

  3. I don't want people to think that I am passing judgement, or even make them feel bad

  4. I don't think I am very good at this writing thing and I am sure my Gr 12 English teacher would agree.

  5. I like keeping my personal life private, and don't think readers would be interested in hearing my sailing adventures.

  6. To date the only thing I have written about are high tech toilets and dad's with their pants down.

I recently attended Blogher 2010 in NYC hoping to get some inspiration that would encourage me to blog, having people like Maureen from @weewelcome and @impressionspr on my case still didn't get this blog moving I knew I needed dramatic inspiration . This conference had 2400 bloggers from all over North America and beyond. They blogged about anything and everything. I was honoured to have @bweike of Parent Central as my room-mate. I was her mini assistant during her coverage of the Tutus for Tanner, it was a great to see a real journalist at work, and how dedicated of a writer she is. It was great to connect with bloggers some of whom I had connected with and others who I knew nothing of, it was the Voices of the Year nominees and listening to them read their posts that provided me with the inspiration that I needed. The weekend was a blast with great parties, dinners, amazing swag, it was like being at summer camp for moms. So, with some helpful tips from @juliecole of Mabels Labels that I learned at a recent event I attended and I am going to give blogging my best try. No promises but I promise to try my best.

BTW I was trying to add more pictures but me and the computer just arent getting along today.
