Having never had a blog at Christmas before, I had no idea what to expect. Okay, technically I did open this blog in July of 2012, but I wrote one post and promptly forgot about it until late January of this year.
So how am I enjoying my first Christmas experience on WordPress? It’s good and then it’s not. I’m very pleased with the comments I’ve had on my posts so far – many people have shared their own past Christmas adventures with me and I love it. What I’m disappointed about however, is the fact that I can’t seem to be able to write about anything else. Christmas has consumed every part of my life it seems. I haven’t written anything fictional to speak of (other than a few poems and my The Note series on my fiction blog) since NaNoWriMo finished.
So I’m hoping you’ll bear with me while I try to find something else to talk about. I realize my blog probably hasn’t been very interesting lately to those who don’t celebrate Christmas, and to you, I apologize.
Oh, how I need a break.

You should tell us your least Christmas-esque story you have. One where gum’s put in your hair by an unrepentant stranger. 😉 I hope it’s coming along well.

I started my Christmas shopping yesterday, so I guess you could say it’s starting to come along…. slowly.

I was reminded of an old Isley Brothers song “It’s Your Thing”… “It’s your thing, do what you wanna do…” 🙂

I know what you mean. I have struggled in the last while to write less emotional pieces, but when that is how you feel it is not easy. Christmas is everywhere, but I must admit I haven’t got sick of reading Christmas posts yet.

Well that’s good news! I’ll try not to be the one who tips you over the edge. haha
But yes, it’s very hard to write anything but that which is preoccupying you.

Linda that’s probably the difference between a personal blog and one on a mission to be a lot more. I love your personal blogging.

It’s okay to talk about Christmas and your memories of past ones. This is the season for sharing, and you can tell us your Christmas stories, and we’ll love them!
