I am always planning. I plan and schedule posts. I plan and schedule pins, social media, and newsletters. Planning is my best friend right now. I sat down and looked at my post schedule prior to utilizing my content calendar, and I realized how burned out I had become. There …
My Blogging Business: Downsizing
Downsizing. At first the word seemed like I was giving up, but after some thought, I realized how freeing it actually was in the long run. While I run several websites (10 to be exact), I was back to feeling overwhelmed and not blogging like I should be. Some of …
My Blogging Journey: Websites Down
The downside to having all of my websites on one server is that if it goes down, all of them go down. I had finally started gaining traction again when all of my sites went down at once for a week or more. Crud! What do you do then? You …
My Blogging Journey: The Disappointment

My Blogging Journey: More Off Days
It is difficult to function when you feel overwhelmed. I sat down yesterday and tried to write, but instead I ended up feeling so overwhelmed that I couldn’t function. I had too much to choose from as far as a starting point. This morning, I sat down, read through some …
