New fun Giveaway and Other things!

My good friend and Brother-in-law, Joshua Hoyt, has a blog that expounds on the psychology of people and life and uses this as a way to help those out there wanting to become better writers for their novels and I think it is also a great way to just look at your own life and seek improvements. It has great insights and facts that are fun to read and relate to.

After a long hard month of putting his blog more out there, he has reached a 100 followers!! Congrats!! To celebrate he is having a giveaway for a $15 gift card at Amazon.com. To join you can go here: The Forsaken Petal Blog Giveaway! Congrats again Josh! So fun!

On another side note- I am trying to think of ways to make my own blog more consistent. I tried blogging every day for a week straight (instead of my random once here, once there postings) of just the random things that I have been working on at the time, but I think I am going to try to make things more consistent and more predictable hopefully making it more enjoyable- for you and me. So I think I am going to have a schedule for my blogging, I will try this out for a little and see how it all turns out and if you readers out there like the new flow or not. Any and all feedback would be great!

So here is my plan for now and we'll see how it goes ( I will create a new tab at the top of my blog that will also have the schedule, if I decide to change it around later- I will post my changes there) :

Monday-Money Making, Money Saving Monday!

Mondays I will post things I have done, have read about or any of the sorts to share on ways of saving money- thus making you money! This will probably primarily be relating to my current projects- especially since lately my current projects have been relating to saving money- because they are homemade! :) But this day could also include advice or things of the sort!

Tuesday- Creating day-

No posting on Tuesdays, whatever things I make this day I will post on one of the other days

Wednesday- We-flecting Wednesday!

This day I will post on things that I have created in the past, "Reflecting" backwards on things that I have previously ventured in, seeing how far I have come and also having a fun look at things we could try out (we will see how long this one will last- since I might not have a TON of this to share- but we'll see! :)

Thursday- Creating day- no posting

No posting on Thursdays, whatever things I make this day I will post on one of the other days

Friday- Fun Find Friday!

On Fridays I will post on random fun things that I find that I want to share. This could be sharing other fun blogs, websites, ideas, products, any and all the above- anything that I "Found" that I think will be "Fun" to share about- and it will of course stay somewhat in the realm of the "Domestic" venturing
Sat and Sunday- creating/resting/spending time with my family day :) Sorry- check back on Monday!

Sun Up Saturday- (2nd Saturday of the month)

I want to primarily devote my weekends to spending time with my hubby and little girl- my hubby is a busy man in this stage of our lives and so I cherish ever second I get with him. But he works every 2nd sat of the month- so as long as the little girl naps good- I can share in a little on this day. Sun Up Saturday will be a day I will share reflections, thoughts, random things in relating to finding peace and joy in life- to me this is a big venture in itself- so I thought it would be fun to dedicate at least one day a month to sharing my inner deeper thoughts on trying to make more out of this life. And who knows, maybe if this one goes well I will make it one of my weekly sharings instead of a monthly thing- we'll see how this one goes.

So there we have it- I am gonna try this schedule out, see if it will give some more organization to blog, making it easy to follow in the ways that might be more appealing and helpful to you lovely readers out there.

If you haven't noticed I have also created a tab "Your Ventures" that discusses that I would love to share any of YOUR ventures, yes that's right YOU! I know I am not the only one trying to be creative out here, so if you are willing, I would love to share things that you are doing too. Maybe if enough people wanna share in I will make my Tues or Thurs a sharing day- we'll see how that goes, you can click on the tab for more details on this or go HERE.

And like I mentioned earlier- any and ALL feedback would be great- what do you think of this new schedule idea, do those sound interesting enough, or should I keep doing things the way I was doing it!? Let me know what you all think!

And again, don't forget to check out my Brother-in-law's Blog and join in on his giveaway and check out his fun fascinating blog- you won't regret it!

Until next time!!.....


P.S. I love rocking my little girl to sleep...I was interupted several times in posting this because my little girl woke crying. It is a fun feeling to have her melt in me when she wakes up sad and just wants a good cuddle.
