The Dumps & New Direction

I have been down in the dumps lately about my blog. I was really enjoying blogging there for awhile, but then suddenly I had no interest at all. I would pull up my blog to write a post and writer's block would hit me hard. Or I would write an entire post and then decide I just didn't want to post it. 

I started this blog as a crafty blog, but now that I am a mom I have moved away from that completely. I still have a link up, Glam Party, on Tuesdays that was part of the crafty side. I think the lack of rule following for the glam party has me completely ready to end it. At first I was sad because a lot of my readers participate in this & a good chunk of my traffic is because of it. 

Then I had to remember that my blog isn't about traffic. The blog is a place for me more than my readers. My blog is that...MY blog. I get to write about whatever I want to because it's mine. So with that said my blog is turning a new leaf. 

Giggles, Glitz & Glam is about faith, motherhood & everything in between. I had my blog redesigned for this and somewhere along the line I lost sight of what I had in mind and became caught up in the numbers. I may be writing just for me and have no readers & if that's the case then so be it. This is my blog after all, but I do hope you will stick around!

And now I leave you with this...
 My hidden talent.

  1. I hear ya! I recently wrote a post on this, found here: Getting the Groove Back & it has helped me so much to refocus and stay true to myself.

    Stay true to yourself & your hopes and desires for your blog!

    Cheers,

  2. So right. Sometimes I lose sight of what I wanted mine to be too...and it's just, well, everything. And that's ok. And I can mess with it and change it and post what I want to, and there doesn't really have to be a direction, unless I direct it. I'll stick around, dear. I love your blog. :)
