This week has been crazy. Busy at work, one of my boys appeared to have impetigo (thankfully a false alarm), my husband was away working and I got in an email fight with people from my nursery school. Not my best week. Not how I like to live my life. So, I didn’t blog. I wasn’t in the right frame of mind and I don’t like to put more negativity out there in the world. In some ways I wish I had because it would have been therapeutic but in the end, I think I made the right decision.
I do have Blogger guilt. I think it is something that we all struggle with, but this is my first real experience where I chose not to blog and felt guilty about it.
But, things turned around yesterday when I got an email from Blissdom Canada about the exciting excursions and new speakers added. And, then, my negative cloud went away. I got excited and renewed and a thousand blogging ideas came to me right away. If CANNOT wait to head off to this fantastic conference and tell you all about my experiences! Here’s to swag giveaways! And, the day before I get to attend She’s Connected Conference. My first blogging conference experiences multiplied by two! Yay me!

Back to back? You lucky lady! I’m going to Bloggy Boot Camp Chicago in November and I cannot wait! I am soooo excited! This will be my first conference :)

I write every day. I learned my lesson years ago when I deliberately stopped writing for three years. Today I’m launching a revamped website and a Kindle book, The Mindstalker. No time to go to Bloggy Boot camp so I’m starting an online Blog course.
I love the green of your website and am glad you are back to doing what is cathartic for you. Maybe next time you could write the blogs and not post. In the future, you may choose to release them. Sorry, the teacher in me slips out all the time. Have a great Saturday Sharefest from the Pacific Northwest.
Kerrie @ Family Food and Travel says
Thanks Sheila! Great advice. I will definitely keep writing :)

I’m so excited for you to go to Blissdom! I’ve wanted to go for a couple of years, but have been unable to swing it. I’m sure you’ll have a great time!

Thank you Nicole! I can’t wait! Countdown is on :)
