Ok the OFM again had to do a total cut off to allow himself to think clearly about his problem. The trouble is I had let writing the blog take over my life. Yesterday was a very busy day of gathering stuff to write about to the point I spent over ten hours working on blog stuff like pictures and checking out things l might want to write about and interviewing folks for their stories. Then I had to edit the data and start to assembling the blog. For me the blog normally takes 2-4 hours to get ready for publication every evening.
Yesterday I just plain overloaded again and it was time for a change. So I shut down to regroup and think.
This morning discussing the situation with a couple of friendly long term Rving bloggers another answer was suggested to the OFM. So here is the new plan I plan to attempt. First take my life back. Second choose a story and do it without worrying about a deadline. Publishing every day is not required. Telling the best story line I can is required. If a story needs three days to get ready then it does.
I really like the OFM character. He tends to do things his way and we hope to begin letting him have a little extra time to enjoy living while having tooooo much fun.
Glad to hear you finally understood what most of us had been saying.
ReplyDeleteNow relax, Stay Safe and Enjoy having tooooo much fun.
It's about time.
Yep I get to intense too easily.
DeleteThanks for reconsidering things. Glad to see the blog anytime you are ready to publish one.
ReplyDeleteI hope I have it worked out this time.
DeleteBlogging should be fun or a job. Find a good spot to do your story telling...we'll be here ready to listen,
ReplyDeleteThank you for the nice comment.
DeleteHi Barney, it sounds great your loyal followers will be here, post when it suits you. Thanks and enjoy life.
ReplyDeleteThank you for the support.
DeleteI too am glad you reconsidered, and I am confident you will find a pace that doesn't make the blog feel like such a chore. I know I could never write a daily blog, too much other stuff to do! I sure have enjoyed reading your blog(s) but would rather you have too much fun fishing or whatever else you choose. Cheers and good success to you.
ReplyDeleteBlogging shouldn’t be a chore or a dread, if it is, you are doing it wrong. Life is meant to live and to enjoy, so get out and do that. Pictures tell stories on their own, words aren’t always necessary. It doesn’t have to be perfect, life isn’t, so why fret about it. Live, laugh, love and if time permits drop a line out in blog land on occasion.
ReplyDeleteI don’t comment often, and I admit I don’t read every post but I do enjoy the photos! Enjoy your day!
