Blocked

I have a serious case of writer's block. Not that I think of myself as some great writer but I do write. Just not as much lately. It seems whenever I sit down at the computer to write something for the blog I draw a complete blank. So I sit and stare at the screen for awhile and then I get distracted by FB or some other blog. I don't know what it is. I can't seem to think. My mind wanders or I think of something earlier in the day and then can't recall it. When I first started this blog I would compose posts in my head throughout my day. And then I started sitting down and writing multiple posts in a day and scheduling them out. Now I've got nothing. Except this darn headache yet again. I'm feeling a little frustrated by the whole thing. I have always enjoyed this blog and being able to talk about things on here that I find interesting or frustrating. And it's not as if I DON'T have things I'm frustrated about. Or even fascinated by. Maybe it's because I am finding out more and more that my family reads here. And I don't want to offend any of them or hurt any feelings. Or maybe its just because I mentally constipated. (Sorry for that image Lori!) Whatever it is I'm hoping it ends soon. I MISS my blog. I miss my writing.

Oh, I feel you! I had WB for a while there. I found it so frustrating! Then I just started writing about anything - even a sentence about a dress I love - and it seems to be stirring the creative juices so to speak. I am sure that it will pass :)

1. You're pregnant. You will get your whole brain back at a later date...but just little bits at a time. Sorry, but it's true. I only starting feeling like my old self in the past few months and my "baby" is five!

2. Sometimes it's better to take a formal break. I've found the minute I wrote a post telling everyone I was going to be gone for a while, I would suddenly get all this great material.

We will be here waiting for you when you get back!
