Blog Dare – I decided to take the dare!

a mom blog community

As I understand it, the Blog Dare is a challenge to blog every day in 2011. For the last few months I have been posting almost daily anyway. So, though I was a bit hesitant at first, I decided to take the dare – thanks to Ruth over at MomsMusings! (You always need a good friend to help push you over the edge! LOL!)

In order to do this well, it will take some planning.  I don’t want to post junk.  With that in mind, I decided to make something of a Blog To-Do List.

It’s OK to be WEIRD! Blog To-Do List for 2011
  • Write more product and service reviews (writing about things I love!)
  • Host more giveaways
  • Maybe try my hand at vlogging…. maybe…
  • Keep up with Weird Wednesdays
  • Use conversations from Twitter and Facebook for blog posts (I think Facebook nearly killed my blogging and Twitter has seriously impacted it too)
  • Reward my loyal followers, just for being here!
  • Not be such a perfectionist about what I post – a short post that’s fun is as good (or better than) one that’s longer with good grammar and multiple carefully selected graphics…
  • Continue to encourage you to be YOU, as weird as that may be, because we’re all a little weird in our own way.

Phew!  That seems simple enough.

Mostly, I would like to get back to sharing my every day thoughts a bit more than I have been… it’s why I started blogging almost 4 years ago in the first place!

If there’s anything you would like to see me post about, I’m always open to suggestions.  I dare you! 🙂
