WOW! Hello! Hi there, it’s been a while! How have you been? Hows the family? Any goss?
I did wonder if I could just slide back in here with a new post and be like ‘TODAY’S POST IS ABOUT…’ and pretend that I haven’t been missing for months and months but then I thought ‘better not.’
I’ve been super busy, super tired and super lazy. Those are my excuses. BUT… Those excuses do lead me in to todays post….
5 Blogging Things That I'll NEVER Be Good At.
Number 1: Posting on time
hahahaha the irony. I like to set myself little goals. 'Kirsty, write a post and upload it every Sunday.' It's not hard, is it? Well IT IS, OKAY?
I get busy and things get forgotten and before I know it Summer is over and I'm snuggled in a blanket wondering where the last few months of my life have gone!
In all seriousness, I really do want to get into the habit of uploading a blog post once a week. I'm pretty sure I've said this since I first started this blog but I'M GONNA TRY MY BEST!
Number 2: Instagram Stories
You know those bloggers who post everything on their Instagram stories and it says 'slide up' and it takes you to the item, like WHAT? When did all of this begin? Writing cute little handwriting text over the top of amazing photos and it just looks so GOOD!
It makes me want to buy ALL THE THINGS and it just looks so professional. I just can't.
I'm still stuck over on the snapchat story hype with a dog filter over my face. When did all of this happen? Will I ever learn how to adult?
Number 3: Blogger Chats
Out of all of the things in this list, this is something I really do want to get better at. I think I've been involved in about 2 Blogger Chats in my life and they are so much fun and everyone is so friendly.
Again, it all comes back down to time keeping. 'Oh, that blogger chat is tonight at 7pm. I'll be there!'
9:30pm comes and I'm like 'OH FOR ***** SAKE.'
Number 4: Posting when it is 'relevant.'
This one is a bit specific.
Example: 'OMG, Look at this cute little sunshine lamp. That would look SO cute in a Summer inspired post.' The date is October 8th.
I have a habit of just getting really excited about a blog idea, writing it and posting it. I don't really 'plan' much and I just like to wing it. Is that bad?
At least you can all be excited for Santa Claus stickers and snowman lights in my photos that I post in February!
Number 5: Pinterest
I just don't understand this website. I like to look at it for inspiration and it almost always comes up as a link when I google something... but I just don't understand how to use it!
I've tried multiple times and I know it 'pins' things to your 'wall' (is that even right?!) but I just cannot get my head around it!
Please tell me I'm not the only one!?
What are the things about blogging that YOU find difficult? Orrrr am I just totally on my own with these?!
