Daily Musings: Archibald's

 

This is the sunrise that greeted me this morning.

Date: Tuesday 11/19/14 5:23 P.M. Warm days. Cold nights.

Mood: Frustrated. I've lost the laundry room keys. I don't know where else to look.

Eats: Archibald's in Victorville has the best corndogs I've ever eaten.

Fitness: I should be working out right now.

Musing: Have you ever noticed when you are talking to someone and they just zone out.  I felt like saying 'and then pink elephants flew in and finished my knitting  project' just to see if they'd go 'what?'

Reading: Finished Magic to the Bone last night. Now I need to finish Accidental Genie.

Fashion Update: Just finished the first 9 days of my 3 month fashion challenge.  See my fashion blog below for more details.

Fun Facts About Me: My grandson is turning 4. I call him gingersnap because he has red hair.

Mood:  Excited

Eats:  Delicious pork loin and asparagus last night.

Fitness: I wish I had a Fit-Bit so I could track how much walking I'll be doing today.

Musing: It has been a week since my car got crushed. So today I need to get out of the house so I'm carpooling to town with my boyfriend. After I drop him off, I'll do my normal Sat. schedule, which is library, music class, and shopping. Then I'll work on projects until he gets off of work. I think I'll take my mandolin to class today.

Reading: Now reading The Accidental Genie by Dakota Cassidy. I think it would make a great Sit-com.
 See my book blog at 51 Books a Year

Fun Fact about me: I am 2 of 5. Yep, that makes me the middle child.

Special thanks to Julie DeNeen.
I stole this idea from blogger Julie DeNeen. She is a big encourager of all kinds of  blogging tips and social media advice.

Build a Better Blog

The thing about blogging is you can always get better at it. I've changed so many things since I started to blog. And yet there is so much more to learn. And then social networking happened, which helped us all to reach a much larger audience. Most visitors don't comment so it's hard to get a feel for how many eyes see my words. A lot more than I may realize I bet. My friends has a blog and she's cute as a button. She gets so many comments and has so many sponsors. I'm guessing a good part of her income comes straight from blogging and affiliate ads. Just when I pat myself on the back for getting good at this, other people come along and pass me like I'm standing still, and she's one of them. I think every post she makes gets at least a dozen comments. It helps that she's drop dead gorgeous, but I think it also helps that her blog looks so appealing. Great big splashy pictures, a font that is big and easy to read, and buttons at the top to all kinds of social networking sites so you can share her posts. I don't even know how to build a page like that. I'm guessing she hired a professional website builder.

In the meantime I'll keep doing the best I can with my humble blogs.

Let's Get Organized

I just had an organizational epiphany. I used to keep a Daily Planner, but it was so heavy and costly. And people thought I was a bible thumper. And I'm not sure why it never occurred to me before, but I can make a daily blog and set it to private to use as my daily planner. Genius! So I'm going to go do that right now.

Blog TV Experiment

I just signed up for Blogtv. So I'm going to see how this URL thing works.
Supposedly you can watch me while you are parked on my blog. If you can, or if you see me, leave me a comment if you please so I know it's working. Thanks.

The Wild Hunt

I ran across an interesting pagan blog called "The Wild Hunt'. It's a news blog of how paganism interfaces with the rest of the world including politics, health issues, and media icons. I will definitely go back to read more of that.
