hi. blogging is harder than i thought. and lifestyle/fashion blogging is 10 times harder than that.
am i the only one who thinks this?
i have gotten way more into blogging as of late, and it's beginning to consume so many of my thoughts. i think, "oh, let's do that because i can put it on the blog," or "hunny, stand like that because it's a good blog shot". i am sure i have to be so annoying. maybe that's just what happens when you start any project? hmm...
i don't know.
i don't want to become some crazy cat lady blogger (no offense if you like cats). i can get pretty obsessive when new things are thrown at me. i'm already an obsessive mother.
poor riggins
 i want to live life just to enjoy it-not to blog about it. blogging about it can just be the icing on the cake. it's all about balance. any advice for a newbie blogger like me?

i read through blogs and it seems to come so easy to some. great topics, awesome writing style, perfectly edited pictures, awesome blog design, and large amounts of followers, all done while looking flawless and not breaking a sweat. it's much tougher than it looks, so props to all you fashionistas who do it with style! does anyone else out there get super awkward when asking someone to take pictures of them?
does that ever go away?

i love writing about our little life and storing these memories up in this here blog-sphere. i've always been a journal writer, but no one has ever read my journal. no one has read about my deepest thoughts and biggest fears. it's crazy to me that anyone can access the thoughts and feelings we write in these here blogs of ours. a random person in colorado could rip apart a post that took so much courage to write. a woman in alaska could e-mail me and tell me i shouldn't be wearing polka-dot skinny jeans so soon after giving birth (10 pounds to go). they could criticize my grammar or punctuation or pictures. but no fear. so many amazing women hang it all out there for the world to read and they are better for it. inspiring women.
i want to be like them.

stay tuned for details about phoenix fashion week. so excited to go tonight. anyone else going?
