Babbling at the Mouth

For some reason, it seems like Thursday rolls around and I have a block. It seems like all the good blogging material was used up in PINT and WW, and Thursday kind of washes up dry. I'm thinking about next week, or the weekend (we are actually going AWAY this weekend, WAHOO!!), and sometimes I use prompts, and sometimes I don't. Today I am foregoing any prompts and meme's (even my own) and just letting it go. I have NO idea what is going to come out in the post today. Sometimes life is fun like that. Enjoy my babbling...

Sometimes I worry that I am losing sight of what I originally started blogging for. It's like I get caught up in all the fun meme's and forget to get down to the nitty gritty of why I started blogging in the first place. (I will touch more on why I started blogging during my blog party), even though the meme's I partake of tend to be about my family. I feel like my readership is down, as some who used to comment all the time are no longer coming around. I'm sure that's the nature of the beast, but when your blog is fairly new, it can make you wonder just a little bit if you lost some of that magic from the beginning. I suppose that's fairly normal too as you get into your writing synch and find your niche.

I wonder, when exactly is a blog not considered new anymore? I haven't even quite reached my 100th blog post yet, though it's edging on the horizon...
****************************
Just to touch some on the upcoming things...my blog party will start on June 7. I've got 2 great prizes lined up, a fabulous guest, and tons of blog features for you to explore. You'll get to meet my very first follower, my inspiration to blog, and my 200th follower. You'll get to meet some fabulous designers. You'll get to read a very special post about a life changing event from my past. You'll get to see some of the blog designs I have been working on (simple stuff). You'll find out lots of things that will make you party your blog off. I'm still working out all the details, and well, some things have to be kept secret. You don't want to miss the party of the year! ;)

Last week I started a new meme. There's a button over there -----------> you can snatch up for next week when I officially get it going. It's called The Poetry Hour and will happen on Thursdays. I will offer some prompts to get your poetic juices flowing. All you have to do is link up your own poem. I think it will be a lot of fun, whether you are a poet or not. Agree?
***************************
As a final note to my beautifully random post today, I want to know what you want to know about GC. I've talked about him on here some (in humorous "Oh No He Didn't" style), but I don't really put our married life out there. You got to find out about me but you don't know much about GC. Post your questions here, and I will answer them during the blog party. Anything else you want to know? Ask, and I will answer during the blog party. 

Ready, set, go!!! Let your voices be heard!

P.s. I leave you with Bucket Head...
