So I quit blogging sometime at the end of October beginning of November. Since January I had been participating in a photo blog circle. I thoroughly enjoyed it, and then life happened. I quit blogging. The decision itself was not necessarily a conscious decision but rather a culmination of small things and poor executive functioning one day. I just quit. Partially, I did get a little irritated that the circle seemed broken at times, however, most of it was attempting to adapt to changes. Changes that I agreed to within my own life. Mainly getting married, moving, and starting a new job. Well it all adds up and creativity can be stifled during adjustment periods.
As the New Year started I contemplated what I would blog about. I really enjoyed blogging photography. I intend to keep doing so through out this year, however on my own schedule. I also intend to blog more about life in general and experiences. In my quest to find material to photograph and write about I came up with two ideas. Since I cannot decide solely on one I intend to do a little of both. One, I asked my FB friends what they would like to see photographed. I will take this list into consideration. Two, while at Barnes and Nobel I came across a book created by Amy Krouse Rosenthal, really a blank journal of sorts titled. Encyclopedia of Me: My Life from A to Z. I really liked the thought of this so this is the second blog topic for the year. Some may consider it self centered, while I am looking at it from a view point of a way to historicize my life. Perhaps others will learn from it, perhaps I will get comments that will add to it, regardless it is an undertaking I am excited to do.
Life as it is... it seems to be one big constant check and balance system. For now, I've got chili in the crock pot, a puzzle in building, and a two different areas to blog about.
Happy 2015!

I like your A to Z blogging inspiration! I personally think that blogs work best as autobiographies. Rather a case of, "write what you know". Kudos! Happy New Year!
