Motivation or lack thereof

I will not lie. I am experiencing a serious lack of motivation in the blogging department. Every time I go to blog, I end up reading other peoples' blogs, deciding their blogs are better than mine, and going to sleep. In that order.(image by rodney white on all-posters)

This was supposed to be a bit of a creative outlet. Not another item on my to-do list! But I am frustrated by my own lack of knowledge on how to do all the things I see on other people's blogs on mine. I could easily figure it out with some time, but then it would be work. This isn't supposed to be work!
All that being said, I also have no pictures. I only like blogs with pictures so why should you be any different? Which reminds me I am supposed to figure out more of the settings on the awesome camera Husband got me. (Work!) I love photography and used to remember all the f-stop, shutter speed stuff but it has escaped me and I need a refresher. Thus, another creative outlet that will require work. Unless you do not mind me posting pictures of Sophie and my dogs forever and ever. That I can do! I mean, they are pretty cute...



The other factor in my lack of motivation to blog, that I will devote more time to another day, is that I sometimes wish my life was more interesting to write about. I mean, I love it, but it's not particularly exciting. At least not in the traditional sense. I think watching my baby try to crawl is pretty exciting, and hearing her belly laugh at the dogs sliding around on hardwood floors is exciting. But maybe not to everyone. And honestly, there is more to me than "Mommy", but I'm still trying to figure that out right now. Most days "mommy" is plenty great for me.

And somehow I made a whole post about how I don't have motivation to post. Backed myself into that one...

  1. I think that most anything (including blogging) worth doing is hard work-- and if you write about what you're interested in, it will be interesting to others... anyways, found this entry pretty interesting

  2. I mostly agree with you, however sometimes things that are work don't necessarily feel like work. I sometimes want this feeling more often! know what I mean?
