You ever have one of those days where you want to show up for work, but are just out of it and having the hardest time doing it? That’s me today, but not at work – here. Sometimes it’s hard to show up here on my little corner of the internet every day, even when I want to. Sometimes there’s writers’s block, or just a lot going on, or I’m preoccupied. Today is one of those days.
My thoughts are kind of all over the place today, and for no good reason. There’s nothing extraordinary happening (good or bad), but I’m just kind of a jumble. On that notes, I thought today instead of me rambling (which I’ve clearly already done), and since there’s some new faces around here, I’d open the floor to you.
As much as I write in this little space every day for myself, I write for you too. There’s so much I write about here, but so much I leave out. Most of it, I don’t leave out intentionally – I just don’t know that others are thinking or feeling the same way. When I do write about those things – the things we all feel but never talk about – it’s when I find the most support and community in the blogging world. So I want to know what you’re looking for, and what you want. After all, this community is the reason I keep blogging.
A while back I asked for your questions (on my 30th birthday, actually), but this time I’d love your comments as well. Tell me what you’d like me to write about. What kind of posts do you enjoy? Do you want to know what I eat in a typical day to stay within my points? Do you want to talk about why I picked the goal weight I did? My fears? What kind of workouts I do? When we’ll have baby number 2? (Short answer, not anytime soon!) About my family? About my college shenanigans or past relationships? Why we live near DC? What TV shows I watch? About my life before the blog?
Ask away, and if you could, tell me what you love and you don’t. I truly do want to hear it.

thoughts on baby #2!
Not anytime soon, but I’ll try to say why!
Best advice you have for a twentysomething!
Oh, I may have to poll my thirtysomething friends for that!
I’d love to hear more about what you eat to stay within your point – always looking for different approaches!
Will do! This week is a bad example though, haha.
I always love the random posts. Sometimes the 5 on Friday posts are my favorite, because it always gives readers a snippet of whats going on in your life at that time. Other than that, I love reading about your thoughts on motherhood since we have different approaches to it (SAHM/WOHM). It’s always interesting to read different perspectives.
Good to hear about the Fridays – sometimes I feel like people just skip over them, and the linkups have gotten enormous, which can be frustrating. I’ll keep in mind the perspectives thing too 🙂
I think you already do such an amazing job with keeping your post fresh, organized, and attention grabbing. However I would love to hear more about your day to day life, weightloss challenges and successes, being a mom, and topics that may seem out of the social norm box.
Your a great blogger, don’t let a little writes block or frustrations of life make you think other wise.
You’re so sweet – thank you! Sometimes I start to feel like I don’t have anything different to say, so it’s nice to hear that. Thank you so much for your suggestions! 🙂
I love your posts about motherhood- I probably don’t comment on all of them but I definitely read them. I love seeing what other moms are experiencing and how they’re handling it. Also I think you do a great job keeping up with this job while working full time and taking care of a family!
Thank you – it’s definitely not easy, and I wish I had more time. Thankfully Abbie’s at the point that I get time to myself in the evenings, so that helps…but I really could use some more sleep!
