So much for once a week!

You are probably wondering about the once a week thing. I am sharing a computer with three other people with conflicting schedules. It seems someone is online all the time. Especially now that the scheduled have changed to conflict even more and the recent renewal of online gaming for two of the other users. I'll try harder...

Waiting for inspiration…

This blog has been blank since mid March. I have no idea why I started yet. I still don't think I am ready and here is why. My passions are varied and my interests are even more varied. I have read many blogs and most are more of a journal in nature. I work in the public (with teens) and didn't really want to throw my personal life up on a page for everyone to read. Some blogs are more geared to the writer's occupation. Not really feeling that one either.

I find the idea of a blog intriguing and positive for the most part. I have family and friends with blogs and find them informative and fun. I can see what they are up to, where they have been and where they are headed. With my occupation I am not comfortable enough to throw caution to the wind and do an online journal. I still feel like I want the forum to write about the things that interest me and the things I am passionate about but which of those things I'm not sure about yet.

Finding inspiration comes in many forms and I thought if I had a good design and format maybe I would be inspired. I don't know where to start and the ones they have as examples are just not inspiring or fun for me. So I asked a (very busy) friend of mine (who I love and trust) to help with that. I'm excited to see what happens.

Here's the kicker though. I decided to get going with this and quit waiting for inspiration. I made the goal to write at least once a week or more regardless of if I still lack my inspiration or direction.

So here goes entry one.

Happy Easter!
