I used to have a travel blog. Beautifully designed with lovely graphics but sadly absolutely zero content. My intentions were good, really they were but I was just too lazy busy. I was out there living life, when you’re living life who has time to write about it?
This story is a familiar one. Once all the travelling and living overseas was out of my system, I resettled in beautiful Canada . A fresh start and the perfect time to start a new blog. It would have been but I was too busy with my new job and catching up friends and family. Then…I was in love, busy volunteering, becoming an aunt, getting myself engaged and on and on and on.
This had to stop.
You could basically use the word ‘blog’ as a proxy for any number of things I wanted to do but simply just didn’t…there was that knitting project, those new recipes, gardening, photography projects, camping trips, that baby blanket I wanted to make my niece (who is turning 4 this summer).…
This past week-end was my birthday and I plan to make this trip around the sun the best one yet. I'm ridding my life of all those outstanding to-do lists and living my life unlisted. Ok – I love lists so my life will never be completely unlisted but I am finally freeing myself from some of those lists and doing new stuff, lots and lots of new stuff. Well that’s the plan anyways - I guess time will only tell.
Step one: Leave work at a reasonable time
Step two: Avoid the couch at all costs
