Blog and Blog Often...

I love to write.  I could really write all day long but the best writing is the stuff I do in the morning.  My problem is I get interrupted.  I can't seem to have a complete thought long enough and I don't dare block out all my interruptions.  Children will remember that sort of thing and my husband, the extraordinary multi-tasker, capable of having six thoughts at once just cannot understand my need to focus on what I write.  I can't help but see all the household chores while I am writing.  I keep a pad next to me to note these as I write, so I don't stop writing to complete them.  But how I wish that writing it down, got it done.  If only my fictitious housekeeper, Julie would vaporize and serve.

Then there are the technological challenges.  I started to blog once last year.  I set it up at this URL:
http://datenightinnewjersey.blogspot.com/  But yesterday when I wanted to add to that blog, I forgot how to access it and so I started a whole new blog.  Today I awoke with a light bulb and was able to find the old blog at the above link and then I spent the best creative hours trying to figure out how to merge the blogs only to find more technological challenges.  I suppose I could contact someone at Blogger.com and figure it out, or I could just leave that one there and continue to blog about date nights on that one (of course that means my husband and I would have to have some date nights).   And I could use this site for all my other random thoughts.  So everything in my world would break down into two categories:  date nights and thoughts about everything that have nothing to do with date nights.  And now my challenge is that I have sacrificed all the best creative hours (I'm a morning writer) to trying to rise to the technology challenges and my creative juices are so dry that I can only think to write about how I wish to write and write often.  I pause here to gather my thoughts and do you know what comes to mind?  "The washer is done, better move the stuff to the dryer." And that brings us back to the interruptions described above. Jotted it down...and I now feel that my creative juices are gone.

I tell you...this blog and blog often thing is going to be difficult but I am determined to rise above it and write regularly about important issues. 

Some of those issues will include my thoughts on Healthcare, Breast Cancer Advocacy Issues, Raising Incredible Children and Managing A Household.  Politics could come up here.  Challenges I experience regularly will be discussed.  Stay tuned!
