Y’all see what I did there?
I know, I know, I’ve gone off the blogging grid for a few weeks. My poor little corner of the interwebs is feeling neglected, but I promise I have good reasons for it (trust me when I say it’s not for lack of material, and there are already associated posts to go along with said reasons). And I guess since I’ve teased them out a little bit, I could give you the low-down skinny, just stop pulling my leg? Or is that just the toddler?
First is POYEL.
Ha-hah! Yes! I’m actually putting that time spent on Pinterest to good use. Still. It’s been a long process, which includes home decluttering and re-organization, rethinking my and Cameron’s day-to-day flow, and re-prioritizing. All of which I’ll write about. Hopefully soon.
Second is business
Really, business is a driving force in most of this. Some of you may or may not know this about me, but my job-job-what-I-do-for-a-living-that-keeps-the-roof-over-my-head is web design, and now integrated brand design. My service offerings have expanded, and I’m officially starting a wait-list for services because demand has made it necessary. I’m really excited, it’s a fantastic position to be in, and I’m incredibly fortunate, but it also means that my time is limited and with a toddler in tow, things (like this blog and my running habit) have gone to the wayside.
I’m also hosting WordPress chats a couple times a month on Google+ (I finally found a use for it!), and along with it, I’ll be blogging about… well, blogging and, more specifically, how to use WordPress, which will all be on my business site (resamichellemedia.com).
Third is guilt
I hate to admit this, but I put on a good 7 lbs over the summer, which doesn’t sound like a lot, but it’s enough that I’m really disappointed with myself. I’ve really put my own health on the backburner over the last month or so in exchange for my business and Cameron’s needs, and honestly, I can’t say I regret any of it in the least, but I have to get consistent again. I don’t feel quite like myself when I don’t and I worked much too hard to get to where I wanted to be. I haven’t honored those efforts lately.
So there it is, here I am, and off we go.
And how was your summer?
Summer came and went so fast! Heck, the whole year did.
Still, awesome to hear the things brewing on your end of the universe. It’s nice when things come together and business is good. And I love the idea behind the Google+ chats – still haven’t found a good use for it myself.
I wouldn’t worry too much about the other stuff, I’m sure you’ll find a balance soon enough :-)
Summer feels like it just started yesterday and yet there it went! Are you going back to school this semester? Will Cameron be doing anything exciting in the fall? Does he have any Halloween costume ideas yet? Can Cameron teach me how to be cool and do the duck face too? <3 Someday when I grow up I want to be the Camz.
I AM back in school part-time, taking online classes in graphic design and adobe illustrator. Cameron is too young for the preschool programs in the area, and we haven’t thought of any Halloween costumes. Any ideas?
Also, he does have a waitlist for his How to be Cool seminar, but he’s doing an open “how to duck face” session next weekend.
