Ideas...

I have been thinking about starting up a new blog. A photography blog. 

What do you think? Should I make the attempt to keep one up?

Also, I think I may have found my logo! 

Let me know what you think - out of curiosity!

Things That Make You Go Hmm...

I have noticed a trend. With so many bloggers lately, no one seems to be able to keep up with their posts. Me included! Everyone seems to be starting out their posts with mentioning their absence, or lack of blogging.

Most of the blogs I follow are from out of state, and some in other countries...but for me personally, could it be this weather?

I mean COME ON! Is it too much to ask that Washington state {at least the Western half} get a few rays of sunshine? The weather has never seemed to effect me as much as it has this past year. The rain, the snow, the wind, the HAIL! I am beginning to think that it may never stop? 

I am a true Washingtonian who has always embraced our weather. Crappy or not! After all, we DO live in a rain forest! But the lack of vitamin D has me feeling less and less inspired on a daily basis. 

If only my family was the type who could go on vacation to a faraway sunny place whenever we wanted! At the drop of a hat, on a whim! Oh how NICE that would be! But since we are not, I get giddy over the smallest glimpse of sun. When I see a ray shining through the trees, I smile. I suddenly get a bunch of ideas running through my head again, and I want to utilize every second of it! But lately, by the time I make it out the door, it is gone. 

My Backyard on a good day!

So I ask my fellow bloggers this:: Do you have any ideas on how I can utilize this overcast, dreary, rainy, damp and cloudy weather? If so, PLEASE share! I think I may have used up all of my ideas! 

Here's keeping my fingers crossed for SUNNY weather!

Bright Idea!

I am sitting here perusing other blogs, feeling inspired and somewhat creative. So I came up with an idea! Actually, I found a blog titled The Flowerchild Dwelling and it gave me an idea! I have been wanting to do something like this for awhile, and after browsing this blogs posts, I figured I could do it too! Why not? Everyone has such different tastes and styles, that I am sure there might be a little something for everyone!

Starting next week I am going to make a theme out of my Monday and Friday posts ~ Music Monday and Photo Friday. I will start and end my weeks writing about my two passions!

Music Mondays will include {a new song, artist, video, lyrics, etc...} anything of the sort related to music. And on Photo Fridays I will post a favorite photo from that week. Whether it being one that I took, or one that I found and fell in love with!

At least this way I can share two of my favorite things {and findings of them} with you!

*Keep an eye out for next weeks posts*

The Pursuit

In my quest to become a photographer and a more interesting blogger, I find the need to ask myself this:: What can I talk about, write about (or should I say type about) that will make people want to read what I have to say? Because frankly, most topics that ramble through my brain are not all that interesting. And it seems as though most people feel the same way! 

I surf other blogs to see what is being mentioned. I check out websites for ideas. And so far, what I have found, does not seem to be very different from what I choose to mention. So...I am trying to figure out what will make other people want to read my thoughts. If you have any ideas, questions, or topics that YOU would like to read about, please comment below! At this point, I am open for suggestions!

Once I have my camera up and running, I'm sure this will turn into more of a "photo blog". But until then, I am drawing a blank. Lately I have been thinking about switching over to more of a "discussion blog" (picking one topic per week to talk about, chosen by the readers). But I would first need a popular blog, and lots of people to comment to make that happen. Because honestly, I have a ton of things I could write about! But would you honestly be interested? Would you really read them, or care about what I have to say?

That's where this post comes into play:: PLEASE help a fellow blogger out! I am trying my best to keep us all coming back for more! Thanks!
