I blog for a million reasons. A friend asked me the other day if she should start a blog and a fitness business. “Only if you really plan on doing the work,” was my response. She was under the delusion that you could “blog” from an Instagram account.
We discussed the many aspects of fitness that she was knowledgeable about, and I’d mapped her entire success story out in my mind as we talked…but it all comes down to who is willing to do the work. Most people quit within 3 years when there is no exterior immediate gratification. For me, the gratification comes from within. It’s my little legacy.
I had read an article about 6 months ago in which it pointed out the benefits of blogging. The main point that was in the article was the fact that the writer/creator tends to live a more intentionallifestyle. You plan your personal time more effectively because you must if you plan on squeezing in time to create.
We love to plan moments to stop by our local pond to feed the ducks. We decided to take Blanca as an educational experience for her. She wants to chase and torture everything so I try to take her places to get her more acclimated to the universe. She growls at people until she decides if she likes them or not because she doesn’t see people often enough. The poor ducks were happy to see us all, and didn’t know to be concerned about Blanca. She wanted to squirm out of my arms and pick up a duckling like one of her baby dolls and probably slam it to the ground to be a bully. She really couldn’t stand the view of me feeding them. It was madness to her.
My hope would be that she becomes more easy going eventually.
It was great to take time for nature, for lunch together, to wear a pretty Johnny Was dress, and to let Blanca come have a nice experience.
I am trying to let her know how special she is and work on some behavioral issues because in 2 weeks we have a new rescue coming to live with us! His name is Benji and I feel in love with him at an SPCA adoption event. He has had a tragic little life until recently. He is still with his foster mom while finishing up his doctor visits. I had the little guy come over fora visit to see how the girls would do with him. Of course, Bella likes nobody really…but we just ignore her mean diva streak. Blanca LOVED Benji and blocked Bella from getting too close to Benji. We were all shocked to see her protect him from mean little Bella and we knew then that he would be welcomed into his furever home! I can’t wait to share his pictures when he comes!
Thank you so much for all who actually come to the blog and read a little! I don’t write too much because people don’t read like they used to. I, personally spend tons of time reading throughout the day but I am also guilty of watching a lot of videos so I can keep up with #The Storm #TheGreatAwakening and #Qanon in general. It’s impossible to find anyone who knows anything about what all that is, so it’s a lonely road!
YOU MAY HAVE MISSED…
