So I spent yesterday dealing with life, and the day was gone before I realized it. I always keep things in perspective though, and family always comes first. So I shrug my shoulders as I write this, and promise to try again next month. Until then, I post when I can, as often as I can fit it into my life.
I have learned several things while discovering this world of the blogger. The main thing I have discovered is that I have learned better self discipline. That is a good thing. My family calls me an airhead, and not without reason, because I tend to always have my thoughts out in the clouds. Blogging has also taught me to focus my thoughts into words. This blog is just my thoughts, but I never want it to become "the boring ramblings of..." and so I spend a lot of time composing what I will write in my mind before I sit down to put it into text.
The type of blog post I write depends a lot on my mood, as I am sure you have deduced. But variety can be good, and even though I envy bloggers who have a single theme and are experts at what they write, that could never be me, because I have interests in too many areas. So I hope you bleaders will stick with me, as I share my thoughts...
Today my sister and I went for a drive through some of the most beautiful countryside ever created by God. And I took these photographs and would like to share them:
those photos are gorgeous!

ReplyDeleteThanks Vikkp, I appreciate the comments, and will always be just me :D
ReplyDeleteThanks Barbara, photography for me is like looking at the world through God's eyes.
ReplyDeleteI just can't believe ya blew it. pfffffffft.
ReplyDeleteLOL, Life must always come first Cath, or you totally miss the point of being here on earth. While I missed your little diatribes, it made we wait with baited breath for the next morsel of wisdom. Much like Christmas Morning. Your blogs are savoured by me.. like a fine wine. And we both know that too much of a good thing ain't good. huggggs
And so life gets in the way… but life does come first, yes it does. I could never blog daily, and do well to post weekly. The whole process seems to take an inordinate amount of time. But like you said, the self-discipline is good. The main thing is to update every once in a while so our readers won’t think they’ve lost us.
ReplyDeleteLove those photos!
yep Dawn, I did. But the funny thing is that I didn't feel disappointed. I think as long as I stay true to me, and what I am trying to accomplish, then the occasional stumbling block is just a hiccup. So this month, I hiccuped. And then went on...thanks for being you girlfriend...I wait for your comments with as much anticipation as you wait for blog posts...
ReplyDeletexoxo
thanks Debra...and I agree with you. Life is for the living, and if you live for the telling, then you miss the whole point. I never thought when I started this whole blog thing that anyone would read, beyond my family (I've been writing this stuff for years for them). So I am still quite shocked when someone new makes a comment...and love it.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the comment...I love photos too, which is why most of my posts have photos stuck in them...
Love the pictures Cathy!! I just love the colors and the lushness of spring in Cali!!
ReplyDeleteyou were there sister, and saw it firsthand with me...yes it was a beautiful drive.
ReplyDeleteYour photographs are heavenly. I love your posts and I don't have to have a post a day to keep following you.
ReplyDelete@Dawn
ReplyDeleteWhat can I say to that Dawn except that I love you and appreciate every single comment and your support.
