Blogging Schedule . . ? Yes, Blogging Schedule!!

How many days have I missed out on a stellar blog post b/c I was stuck in the world of writer's block? Countless, I can tell you.
I was reading a post by another blogger several weeks ago, and they mentioned that they had a schedule for their blog - certain topics for certain days.
I thought she was crazy.
But then, I thought, maybe . . . JUST maybe an idea like this would work for me - captain scatterbrained.
So I've decided that I'm going to give it a shot.
Every day will be "themed" - now these themes aren't set in stone - so if, for example, I have another topic weighing on my heart or I just can't thing of anything to write for that theme I may write about something else. But this will give me - and you, kids! - an opportunity to see "what's in store" for the week! I will also be posting this list somewhere in my sidebar soon.

So without further ado, here's my new Blogging Schedule!

Marriage Minded Mondays - discussions and tips on having a happy and successful marriage
Tasty Tuesdays - I will be linking up with a few of my favorite blogs to share recipes and cooking tips
Wordless Wednesdays/Word-Filled Wednesdays - I will be linking up with 5 Minutes for Mom for their weekly meme OR I will be discussing a Biblical topic
Thougtful Thursdays - Writing about whatever's on my mind
TMI Fridays - The weekly free-for-all is back! Beware - some of these stories will be gross! Mwahahahahaa!
Silly Saturdays - Craft/Activity ideas for kids, funny stories, kids guest blogging (am I crazy . . ?)
Scriptural Sundays - I will be posting a bible verse for the week here.

So, there you have it, kids. My blog schedule. If any of you have one you'd like to share, leave a comment! What's YOUR blog schedule?

What's My "Brand"

As I look back on some of my older posts, it dawns on me that I am the most scattered person on the planet.
The whole point of blogging, if you want followers, is to have a theme - one theme - and you stick with it. But here, I have a whole variation of themes! This blog is proof of my multiple personalities.

First you have the mommy posts. These are the ones with pictures of my children, funny daily anecdotes, recipes, household tips . . . That's what my starting intentions were with this blog.

Then you have the "pious" me - the religious posts. Make no qualms about it, I am a Christian and I am loud and proud about it (although not pushy). These posts focus on the spiritual aspect of my life - what God has done for me, what I wish he would do, a bible verse, a religious debate . . . Things like that. The more I got to know my Jesus, and the closer I got to Him, the more in-depth these writings became.

Then you have the snarky, witty posts - the TMI Friday moments, and the real-world, in-your-face, (attempts) to be funny.

Let's face it, these three "me's" just don't really go hand in hand, now do they.

So, my dear readers, I ask for your help. Out of the three brands, which do YOU prefer? The "Mommy" me, the "Religious" me, or the "Snarky" me - your votes will help determine the future of this blog!

I'm BAAA-AAACK!!!

School has started again. After all the hussle and bussle of the holidays, I am so glad to be in near-silence once and for all. Of course, Jake isn't exactly the quiet type . . .

This year is going to be all about new beginnings. Healing and hope. Love and laughter. 2010 is going to be a wonderful year, I can feel it!

My goal this year is to finish what I start - that includes everything from weight loss to organization to cleaning to - yes, even this - blogging. This blog will start back up with at least weekly updates. The tips and recipes will start coming again too - I still have so much to share! Now all I need is followers to share it with (hint, hint . . . )
