I haven't been blogging as much this go round. I'm genuinely trying to remedy this. It's just that when I sit down to blog, I want to make sure that what I'm saying is worth saying. I read other people's blogs - some who I know, some who I don't - I gather inspiration, ideas, and sometimes hints of what I wouldn't want to put in this space. Blogging is hard because let's face it, there's millions of us out here posting our favorite outfits, what we made for dinner, or sharing the most personal moments of our lives. Hell, anyone who reads this knows the inner workings of my medical conditions, went through the wedding-planning process with me, and follows my every day journey of life. My struggle is posting content that matters, while trying to keep up with what people might WANT to read on polka-dot chronicles.
I've decided that the theme of my posts from here on out is going to be the truth. You'll see my real life, read my real recipes, live through my real struggles, and celebrate my real successes. I think that's the best way to go with this thing. I'll be more excited about writing. I really think I will.
To start, I'm making a list of books that I want to read before Christmas. I'm hoping to get through
FIVE once I start my venture on Monday. Here are the ideas for what I have so far:
- Tuesdays with Morrie by Mitch Albom
- Unwind by Neal Shusterman
- City of Bones by Cassandra Clare
- My Sister's Keeper by Jodi Picoult
Regretfully, I haven't been keeping up with what the good reads are, so any suggestions would be great! I would love to receive a number of recommendations to carry me through the rest of the year!
