It’s been awhile since I’ve posted about blogging. I had started my baby steps to blogging series with no real intent of how often to update it or what topics to cover. However, recently I was thinking of potential topics that I would have wanted to learn about earlier on in my blogging days. And since I’ve passed my one year blogiversary with this blog, I wanted to start up again with the series. This may or may not be posted weekly, depending on time and motivation. We’ll see what we see! For now, I want to kick this back off with a topic that many bloggers wonder about and that’s how to make money blogging. Now, I’ve said it before: if one of your…

Becoming a Blogger

In 2013, towards the end of my second trimester during my pregnancy with Squeaker, I was confined to partial bed rest. I had to stop working and from that point on, I stayed home. Naturally, there was only so much TV I could watch, books to read, FB games to play.. you get the picture. Then it dawned on me to restart my family website that I had done so many years ago… before blogging became what it is today. But, I’ve talked about that already, so let’s get to the heart of this post: becoming a blogger. Really, this is a general recollection of how and why I made the transition. I suppose this also explains a bit behind the blog name, but if…

Year in Review: Blogging Edition

Since I posted a Year in Review for Squeaker, it would only make sense for me to post a Year in Review: Blogging Edition as well. I would post up something about resolutions, but truth be told- I don’t make them. I set goals for the upcoming year and strive to work towards those instead. I suppose it’s the same as setting resolutions, but I’m more likely to keep my goals than I am to keep my resolutions. That’s partly the point for this post, setting up my goals for the upcoming blogging year and going over the past year that I’ve had with this blog. My Most Popular Post: Autism and Grief I wrote this one originally when I had two sub-blogs (School with…

I’ll be the first to admit it- I’m no expert when it comes to blogging and I highly doubt I ever will be. I think that we all have a lot to learn where blogging is concerned, though I’d like to think that I’m confident with what I know. Like many bloggers, I know that success in blogging rarely happens overnight and that blogging takes a lot of time and hard work. But with that time and hard work, you’ll also start to see payoffs. I know I have when I put in the work and I’ve also seen the consequences when I don’t. That’s why I’m setting goals for the next year and offering some helpful tips and printables to aid in goal planning…
