Work, Art, Family, Kids, Education..How to fit it all together

April 3, 2012 by L. E. Mastilock Leave a Comment

I finally have a computer that works (pause for happy dance & screaming, Joy Joy Joy!!), so I am hoping I can keep up my new found motivation to stay up to date!
Someday maybe I’ll even have a phone or device to upload pics & blog instantly to truly be in the 21st century with you! For now, there are more important things.
I’ve been thinking a lot about my blog and what I want to convey. The thing is, I am pushed and pulled in so many directions (as if you don’t know how that is?), if I stick all my scattered thoughts on one blog, it most likely will not have (or seem to have) a coherent theme or idea to hold it all together.

I thought maybe I should separate my work, craft ideas, what I’m working on, website & store updates, from my home life which would consist of my random thoughts, homeschooling my kids, activities, field trips, and crafts I do with them. However, I know I will not keep more than one up to date, and they are so bound together in my daily life, it would be hard to separate… So after tossing and turning all night over this problem I created for myself in my own head, as if I didn’t have more important things to ponder, I have concluded that I will keep it all mashed together in a big chaotic melting pot just as my life truly is!

I will be true to myself (so far this blog has admittedly been painfully serious and hardly showing my personality as I thought I should come across as professional) so be warned of strange notions and random thoughts to come, along with stories, ramblings, pics, ideas, crafts, odd questions, family fun, good books, movies, food, adventures, anything and everything I am currently interested in. I’ll throw in updates of work here and there. You’ll find I have a hard time sticking to one thing and jump around a lot. If I feel it’s too desultory I can always create another blog, right?
