Its the first of October and first thing this moring I walked out into my small garden to take a photo to post on my Instagram account. The sun had just risen above the hills and lit up this lovely Japanese Anemone, absolutely at its best at the moment. I decided now was the time to restart my blog.
Its been over a year since I last posted. I've kept up my Instagram and occasionally my two Facebook pages during this time - they are easy - it only takes a photo and a few words and its done in just a couple of minutes. Blogging however needs more thought, more words and perhaps more photos. I need to be in the mood and I haven't been in the mood for all these months. There are reasons of course, mainly family reasons. But its a new month and a new start...... well not a new start, just a carrying on of what I considered my online diary since 2009. I couldn't quite bring myself to let it go altogether, so here we are again.
I'm still crafting whenever I can - sewing is my thing at the moment.
Still watching the wildlife in my small garden and tramping the fields with my camera.
And still enjoying the wild spaces and attractions around me in North Wales. So nothing much has changed but everything has changed.
I'll write it down here from now on and maybe, just maybe someone will read it.
So nice to read your blogpost. So many blogger have turned to instagram, but hopefully they will gradually come back to blogging. Your sewing is lovely.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much Mary! I'm a guilty Instagrammer myself - it has become huge over the last couple of years and its tempting to spend hours there looking at the beautiful images there and finding inspiration for my projects. <3
DeleteI wondered if you had deserted blogland for IG! Lovely post - pics and sewing.
ReplyDeleteI can't quite abandon it Lynn. Its a sort of record of the last 10 years of my life - well 9 if you exclude the last year or so - and it will always be here unless I delete it, so I want it to carry on really. I've visited quite a few blogs that have been abandoned for a long time and it always seems quite sad.
