What You, the Reader, Can Expect in 2010

Tomorrow I’ll be listing some of my blog goals as well as my life goals for the coming year, but tonight before I head off to bed I wanted to give a little heads up. I know I was been worse than inconsistent in 2009 with my writing, but I have a plan to change it…

Here’s a schedule of what you can expect from my in 2010, well, at least from my writing.

Monday: I plan to vlog each Monday a recap of the past week and weekend…basically just check in with ya’ll once a week.

Tuesday: Tasty Tuesday-I have had a great response on Twitter and FB to this meme so I’m going to continue it and share with you a favorite recipe from the past week.

Wednesday: Look for me to post photos for Wordless Wednesday and occasionally a Works for Me Wednesday post (you know when I find something that works :) ).

Thursday: I am going to be taking Thursdays off from blogging to work on some other irons I have in the fire…plus I feel like it will be good for me to have a day off form blogging in the middle of the week.

Friday: This is still up in the air. I would like to start taking requests….like what do you want to know more about…and write about that, but until I get some requests or ideas for posts you’re interested in I am going to be covering social media, tech, and finance on Fridays.

Saturdays: This is a day I’m looking forward to! I have restarted my Link Love posts, each Saturday I plan to link to several blog posts/web articles that have taught me something in the last week. If you have something you think I should see feel free to contact me!

Sundays: Family day. No blogging on this day either…no outside work at all.

Of course, keep looking out for more posts about my crazy life with my beautiful sweet girls sporadically thrown in there!

And be sure to check out the Featured Mom-biz each month!

I’m also looking for more ways to connect with you, my readers, so please feel free to drop me an email or comment anytime!

Thanks for sticking with me in 2009 and I look forward to getting to know you better in 2010.

Mommy Blogging-Have you found your MommyBlogging Tribe?

I am sitting in the floor of the awesome Mommy Bloggers of the MommyBlogging session.  It’s headed up with Megan Jordan,  Kelby Carr, Renee Ross and Briar Sauro.  We are learning that we don’t have to find a niche to be successful or confident.
You need tribe of friends that really meet you where you are…niches are not nearly as important as finding your tribe.  You don’t have to find a niche to be confident and successful.  Message boards tend to make it easier to connect and then branch out into blogging, whereas starting a blog straight from reading is much harder because you don’t already have that community that you do when you come from a forum/message board.

The key in a place like BlogHer is to lose yourself…to lose the fear and walk up to people and just say HI. Saying Hi here is like live commenting!  Just be yourself and people are bound to love you!

Thank you to the panel members that took time out this morning to be with us.  And Thanks again to Wellesse for sponsoring this wonderful trip!
