So I missed the new year. And February. But my resolution for March is to post at least 3 blog entries a week.
Those who know me well will agree that I am someone who does most things out of necessity, not out of routine. Routine and me, we were never good friends. I washed clothes when there were no more clean ones (until we got a maid in once a week), cut my hair when it's really out of shape and annoying me, and before I married my strong-on-routine husband, serviced my car when it started making a funny noise.
So blogging on routine will not be something that I will find easy, but it's gotta be done. Since discovering this blogging thing, I've grown addicted to reading a couple of blogs. My two favorites are Peggy, as she is and Blog that Mommy! , both regular bloggers, especially Neila at Blog that Mommy, who runs a minimum of one post a day.
Now my blog has few readers so far (I got my first comment (from Peggy) that wasn't my hubby on my last post, you'd think that would inspire me), but the anguish I feel when I go to my favourite blogs and there are no updates is acute, and I'd hate to do that to my regular readers, assuming I got any. So I really have to up my game here.
Plus, I'm never gonna get any regular readers if there is nothing to read, am I?
I also need to do something about the lack of gadgets on my blog. Anyone know a site / blog that gives tips on improving your blog? I now get some of my blogs by email. I gotta figure out how to do that to my blog!
To get a heard start in on March, I'll post my next entry by Monday. I put it in writing so I'd better stick to it.
Cheers!

Hi there, Andy!
I used Feedburner to create the feeds you see on the upper righthand corner of my blog, for both the email feed and the RSS feed.
I also have created a 'test blog' which is not a public blog, (but Blogger lets you create as many as you want!) to fiddle around and see how things look on the blog--and to try out new features before I add them to my regular one.
I've kind of kept my eyes on other blogs that I like and enjoy reading so that I can see what other gadgets (aka 'widgets') are out there.
I too am more a 'necessity' than 'routine' kind of person...but I've found that because I enjoy writing, I'm pulled to write on my blog!
I'll be back on Monday--LOL--have a great weekend!
