My Thoughts for the Blogging Day…

I fear I am writing too much and overwhelming my friends and readers.  It all plays into that obsessive compulsiveness that afflicts me, but I find writing the best form of therapy I have found in years – better than my shrink.  I love to write throughout the day.  Blogging is not a chore at all for me.  It is a joy.   Maybe if I just put a lot of effort into one essay a day then the blog will be better and easier place to come and read and not cluttered with my constant thoughts throughout the day.  I am just going to be quiet today and see how that goes.  I will try to work on a good, thoughtful essay for tomorrow.  I will keep it to only one despite my best inclinations to write six! LOL

Sounds like a good idea. I can't keep up with all the posts from everyone. I find that having one thematic post per day is about all I can handle on my blog. Good luck with it.

It's your blog and you can write when you want to.

Either way works. I love reading your blog regardless. :)

This IS The Fun Part! said...

It is your blog and it is here for you to use in your own way! BUT - I enjoy all your notes of how the day is going.

I guess being retired allows me the luxury of time to check in at odd moments during the day to see what's going on!

Like, how did the new computer system installation work out for dad? Did mom rush out this morning and buy 10 more fish dinners? Has Maggie brought you another wet, fuzzy treasure?

Andrew, you will never, ever be able to make everyone happy at the same time. You started this blog. It is for you. We are here because we like what you have to say and we like you. Do it in whatever way YOU choose!!

Love,
Grannie

Sir:

I would disagree with your assessment. I think it is great for you to post as much and as often as you feel inclined to do. I doubt many if any of your readers would be upset to have MORE of your blog ideas to read.

One longer post a day would still be the same as a few shorter ones. Blog how you like too. It's your blog and we will read it however you post. :-)

Log on and Blog on! I visit often.

skinny minny said...

blog how you like. I tend to like the shorter posts more frequently done when reading a blog but end up doing the longer less frequently done ones on my own only because I tend to forget lately that I even have a blog!
but it is YOUR blog post when what and how much you want.

Beth said...

Absolutely write when and how much you want! It is your blog, not ours, and readers have the option to read when and what they choose. Personally I love the tidbits you post during the day and usually check it several times to see what's going on or what's new.

I do enjoy your posts. Reading your posts as your day progresses is like saying hey to an old friend as you walk by their house. It's nice.
