New Year's Resolutions for My Blog

I've enjoyed blogging.

What is in the future for my blog?

Every time a year is ending, I start pondering certain things.  I reflect back on the year that is fast expiring.  I think about what I've been through, and what I can learn from it.  I also look forward to the future and what it holds.  I usually write out my thoughts, and I've been doing this since I was a teenager.

This year, I blogged almost everyday.  Yes, I skipped a few days in November and this month of December 2011.  Still, I know that I blogged for more than 300 days.  I am very proud of what I have accomplished.  I am proudest that, with God's blessing, I attempted to create quality-filled entries.

I thank all of my loyal readers.  Without you, I wouldn't have kept at it.  I know that many of you would have liked to respond to my blog entries, and I tried to provide different ways for that to be possible.  Since I have taught myself how to set up my free blog (through templates and online tutorials), my knowledge has been limited as to what I could actually do with responses.  Still, I am glad that I was able to do what I did do.

It has been a fun challenge to try to blog everyday, but alas, my energy has petered out.  I feel, though, that my objective to create the best entries has been accomplished.  For the new year, I will continue to create quality blog entries.  I could not write something if I didn't think it was polished enough.  I couldn't just write a few lines this year on any given topic; I had to flesh it out.  I hope you, my readers, will agree with me, that I did that to the best of my ability.

I cannot say that I will blog everyday in the coming year.  I have yet to figure out what my new plan will be.  I don't plan to neglect my blog, but I do know that I will step down the amount that I write.  I would like to work on the novel I created back in November for NaNoWriMo.  I would also like to write a few children's stories for my six year-old.

I also need to spend some time monitoring my children's learning in their home schooling.  I have some reorganization to do within my household, too.  These will shape future blog entries, which I look forward to creating.  In addition, I want to write more about my spiritual walk.

One thing that I don't want to do is to use this blog site for financial gain.  If I want to make any money at blogging, I will likely create a new blog.  I am still debating that.  I also want to visit other blogs more in the new year.  I have some of my favorite blogs that I have followed throughout the year, and I hope to highlight them in a future blog entry.

This coming February will be the one year anniversary of this blog.

Again, thanks to you, my loyal readers, for keeping up with me.  Please forgive me for not blogging for these past few days.  I hope you appreciate the varied blogs that I have provided this year.  I look forward to being a blessing to you all in the new year.  God bless us all in the new year as we seek out to accomplish new goals.
