Trying something new.

Well, it’s been nearly a month since I made an entry to my Blog site….shame on me again!  I really do not understand why this continues to happen.  I’m not lying when I tell you that I love doing these entries, and love hearing that some of you actually enjoy them.  I really have to figure out a way to get on some sort of regular schedule.  Some of the world’s prolific writers who churn out book after book have it figured out.  They treat writing like a regular job, wake up, dress, have breakfast and go to the computer and begin their work day consisting of x number of hours.  I’m sure that they go blank in front of the screen on occasions, but the next day they’re back on schedule again.

Since I have “do a blog” on my calendar and advance it every day even when I fail to write anything , I guess I’m on the right track,  but I firmly believe my computer is cursed.  I come down to my office to look up specific things and or work on my Blog, but then get sidetracked so badly after peaking at the web to check the news,  stop on face book to see what the family is up to,  and a look at my emails to see if anyone still remembers my address.  By the time I’ve gone through all of these stops, and responded where needed, I have completely forgotten the purpose of my office visit and too much time has run out to even consider writing a decent blog.

There are also other problems.  Many of you know that I enjoy cooking, so many times after deciding what I wanted to have for dinner, pork, chicken, beef, pasta etc., I would begin checking out recipes for my chosen meal.  Do any of you have any idea how many recipes are available on the internet?  Invariably I will find several that deserve to be printed.  Ok, there’s another hour not dedicated to my Blog.  

I guess I could kill another hour coming up with more reasons for not writing, but I just decided that I’m going to give this thing the “old college try”, where the hell did that phrase come from?  I will hence forth dedicate a specific time and day of the week to just sit and write something.  I’m sure there will be days when I actually have some decent ideas and others where I draw blanks.  I hope this works out and I’ll be more consistent with my Blog entries.  Your opinion is always welcome.
