I’m Still Here…

It was recently brought to my attention (thanks for the comment!) that's it's been a while since my last post. The end of the year is often hectic. That isn't the real reason for things slowing down though.

  1. I'm still a little self conscious. While most of the people who read my blog are friends or acquaintances, whatever I post can be seen by the world. I struggle with the idea of publishing something that isn't up to par or restricted by my narrow experience.
  2. My ADHD meds are spendy and I haven't been on them since mid November. Sometimes I wonder how much I really need to be on them. After being without them a month, I realize how much I struggle to focus and stay on task.
  3. Blogging is completely different than any other writing I've ever done. It's taking me some time to find my voice for the posts. I have rough drafts on my computer; some are entirely too long while others struggle to make a concise point.

I don't mean to excuse myself from being such a slacker but I've been struggling with my subpar output and have been trying to figure out why. The good news is that I have found some confidence, am back on my "pay attention pills" and have typed enough rough drafts to feel comfortable getting my thoughts and ideas into the proper form.

I will be getting posts up and will be posting more frequently. To those who keep checking my blog, thank you! To those who've just found it, there's more to come. Thank you for your patience (and prodding) in this project. I knew it would take me some time to find a flow. I also knew that I needed to set things up to provide the motivation to actually move past just wanting to make a blog. I'll have a new (real) post up soon, so please check back!

    Thanks for the update. I tend to be a slacker too... Although my excuses usually come back to business and/or laziness.

    Would be a huge blessing if you might consider cross-posting some of your posts over on this youth ministry resource library. You've got great insight and I think others would find it helpful.
