For once, after I wrote about having an awesome work day yesterday, I had another great day without any major hiccups. Usually, if one day is amazing, the next day (while just as fun) will have some kind of problems, but everything went smoothly today as well!
I guess it's kind of a good thing that I'll have to avoid social media, because sometimes I feel like I'm way too addicted to Facebook. Of course, when you have thirteen notifications, like I do tonight, it's hard to stay away, but luckily work and sleep will keep me occupied. Plus, I don't think anyone needs me that badly... the most important people in my life have my cell phone number to text me if there was something urgent, and I don't even have any messages. I can only imagine what I'm going to find when I finally check all of those notifications. I love social media because it's a way for me to stay connected to everyone, especially now that we're here in Florida and a lot of our family and friends are back in New York. At the same time though, I think that I spend way too much time scrolling through my home page just reading what everyone is doing all day long.
Speaking of social media (if blogging counts as a form of social media), today marks a year and eleven months of blogging! Wow, that's gone by quickly. In just a month I'll be celebrating that two year milestone. I remember that this time last year, I was thinking about how I would be living in Florida by the time I celebrated a year of blogging. I can't believe we've been living down here for almost a whole year already.
When I reach that two year blogging milestone, I think I may stop posting on a daily basis. This blog started out as a way to talk about foster care and get myself to write every day. Well, since we were moving, we had to stop doing foster care, and we haven't started up again down here (though you never know what the future may bring), so I feel like I rarely talk about foster care anymore. And yes, I write every day, but I feel like sometimes I post just to say that I posted that day, and that I'm not always writing something of substance. That's not beneficial for me, and it can't be very exciting for anyone to read. So I've been contemplating it for a while, and I think that once I finish out the two years of daily blogging, I may drop down to just two times a week or so. I don't know for sure yet, and that may change still, but that's what I'm leaning toward.
In the meantime, I'll continue to blog daily for the next month and we'll see how things go. But for right now, it's time to get to bed because I have another long day of work ahead of me tomorrow!
Your continued support means the world to me. From foster care to novels, and family to work experiences, I look forward to sharing more of my life with you each day. Don't hesitate to share your own stories with me or ask me questions about my life. Please don't forget to like and share my Facebook author page as well!
