Resolved: I shall dedicate myself to posting consistent, meaningful blogs that pertain to those items about which I am most passionate.

I have been blogging (inconsistently) for a full year now! I received confirmation of my auto-renewal payment, so I can officially say that I’ll be sticking around.

I started thinking more about the direction of the blog, mostly because I don’t feel like there is direction for my blog. I write sporadically and about random topics. My goal for my second year of blogging is to focus my writing to those things that I am most passionate about, sprinkled with a few things I wish I could do…

This, by the way, is not as easy as it sounds. Since becoming a mom, my whole life has revolved around Charlotte. I guess you could say that I am defined by my new role. … But that’s a post for another day!

Discovering, or re-discovering, what I’m passionate about is not an easy task, and I still think that I have a lot to learn about myself and what I really enjoy outside of motherhood. That was a lesson all in itself.

As of today, I would say that I’m passionate about Charlotte, HOS, family, pancreatic cancer awareness, reading and cooking. I would like to do more crafts and learn more about hair/makeup/fashion, but fear these will never be passions – unless you can be passionate about things you really aren’t very good at…

So, beginning with my next blog post, I’ll be using new topics. Don’t worry! I’ll be keeping all of my previous posts. They will just live under new topical roofs.

Be on the lookout for these new topics that make up my daily rainbow! (I’ll explain each title in the first posts.)

• Becoming Mom
• Dear HOS
• Family Matters
• Purple Ribbon
• Legit Lit
• Good Eats
• Uncategorized (For those pesky times when my thoughts just won’t fit into a predetermined box.)
