Focus

I need some.

I feel like I'm being pulled in a thousand different directions. I have all these things I'm trying to accomplish, and my efforts to organize and streamline my efforts just seem to be creating more work.

Like this blog. I've been wanting to write more. I joined Cowbird, but don't have time to do the level of thinking required to write entries to my own satisfaction. I tweet, mostly because I love the challenge of keeping posts to 140 characters or less. I participate in other social media. But there's no site that I can point to and say "That's all me. This is my work. These are my thoughts, my projects." So I created this blog. Whether I can  keep it up to date remains to be seen; I'm falling down on the projects I have going already.

I'm not sure what I'll put here. I have a site I go to for updates on my ongoing goals and projects. I may move some of that here, but I'd like to keep using that other site -- I go way back with it, and I love the community there. I don't see myself doing a diary site; I got bored with LJ too quickly. And I don't have a specific topic in mind, like my endo blog. I have too many interests these days to focus on just one.

I have a vague idea that this blog will be part mommy blog (I waited a long time to have a kid, and she's the center of my universe -- deal), part Happiness Project, part ramblings too long for Twitter. With some Etsy shilling, should I ever find more than 5 minutes to craft.

What it will become is anyone's guess.

Hello world!

So I've been meaning to start a new blog for a while now. At one point in time, I had much to say about endometriosis, but since I had a baby, there's not enough going on in my abdomen to center a blog around. Besides, I have a lot of other stuff I want to talk about. Rather than start half a dozen blogs, I thought I'd put everything in one place.

Hence the generic title. Sorry about that. I'm too tired to be witty. And not all that witty even when I'm well rested.

Anyway. I didn't mean to imply that I had something pressing to talk about right now. I don't. I just wanted to set up a soapbox so when I do have something to spout about, I don't have to shoehorn it into any of my other social media sites.

In the meantime, watch this space. Wait. Don't do that. That's too much pressure. I'll, uh, see you around. Maybe.
