They are somewhat amazing to me- how did I think of all those things to say? How did I manage to make some of the posts funny or witty or entertaining? I was so aware of the details. I feel grateful that I started blogging because otherwise, those little moments and snapshots of life might not be so well documented. Reading a post can take me back to those moments and it's such a gift. I find myself wishing that I could still muster the enthusiasm and motivation to blog...even just once a week.
But every time I think about blogging or even just writing in my own journal, I get overwhelmed. I've lost something- taking the time to write things down doesn't seem as important. When did I lose that feeling?
I keep thinking that I want to start writing more regularly, I've mentioned that several times recently. And yet when I try to put it into practice, I come up empty.
And there's so much going on...but I just can't seem to find the words.

I know what you mean about how blogging solidifies your memories. I do go back and read old post frequently, but I find even when I don't the process of writing something down helps me remember it.
I don't manage once a week as my posts tend to be on the long side but if I do twice a month or more I'm satisfied.
Happy blogging and happy new year.
