From the Belly of Tax Season
Posted in The Life of the Historian and tagged with Blogness, work on February 4, 2010What, a new post on the Ignorant Historian? I must admit, I never thought that the tax season would swallow me whole as it has. I had those three days of much-needed relaxation, and then I’ve had three crazy days of taxes…and it’s just the beginning. Until April 15th, I’ll have little free computer time. Not that it’s a BAD thing…I love what I’m doing and I still have time for other priorities, but unfortunately blogging seems far down that list.
I don’t WANT to quit this blog, but at this moment, I can’t think of what to say. I prefer to hold to a if-you-don’t-have-anything-to-say-don’t-blog philosophy, but clearly this post goes against that idea.
I do have a couple ideas for meaningful posts rolling around in my head. Hopefully, I’ll be able to put pen to paper (or fingers to keyboard, really) to share those posts with you in the next week(s).
Perhaps you could help me out, though…what would YOU want me to blog about? I need some help to get back into a blogging mindset!
Thanks each and every one of you for taking the time to read this here blog. Your comments have been encouraging even when I haven’t had the time to let you know that.

Hm…what are you reading in the Bible lately? What is your favorite recipe? What crazy thing in the news this week made you go “WHAT???” Do a random post of “my favorite thing”. See, other than the Bible, my ideas are pretty shallow compared to what you usually write. But I would be interested to read your answers! :)

What is your favorite scripture? Why? Keep going…that is the only way I get to keep track of you.

I went online to see what help I could get you for the blogging arena. Here are some interesting options I’d love to get your take on: my passion, “My kids will do it differently” (though I don’t know what “it” is), books I’d like to write, a community I love, adopting children, “Somebody has to say it” (again, I don’t know what “it” is for you), friends I can’t wait to meet, and “My personal recipe for…”. Hope you get time to write on here soon; I’m with GZoe–my day isn’t entirely complete until I keep up with the antics of my SIL!

I don’t know if I have any ideas for you, I’ll commiserate with you though. I’ve been going through a long dry spell. And then I’ll finally get ideas in my head about what to blog and I either don’t feel like it or have no time. Sigh. Don’t fret too much.

Thanks for the ideas…my juices are already flowing again!
