Okay, here is the thing...
I realized now that me haven't been posting on my blogs has nothing to do with blogging funk. It has to do a lot with my schedule with work, trying to start my own business and being a good mother and wife to my family which have contributed for me to have more less blogging time.
A lot of people can multi-task which I am not so good at. If I blog, my whole evening has to be spent on blogging. I have tried to blog about two hours each night, but forget it, it's not happening. I always ended up spending a lot longer than two hours.
Anyway...
What I want to say is that as much as I want to blog everyday, I realized it's impossible sometimes. I used to have this fear of losing my readers if I don't post everyday which kind of connected something that I am going to talk about today. But I know now that I have been fortunate enough to meet wonderful friends here on the blogsphere, it's time for me to let go of my fear. And I want to thank all of you who have taken your precious time to read my blog. Thank you!!!
So, I have this weird habit of doing things based on the numbers or music I listen to, kind of over analyzing the whole situation which often times interfere with my life.
In a good term, you can call it as "Good Luck" or "Superstitions", but I often think it's caused me more strain to do things freely.
Let me give you some examples here. When I am working or doing something important, I always check the time first. If the time says {3:30pm} and things go well afterwards, then it's my lucky number/time. If the things don't go well, then it's my unlucky number/time, so I would try to avoid the exact same time to start a new porject next time.
And music, I love music and it brings so much joy to my life. However, there are many songs that I love, but haven't been able to listen and enjoy because bad things had happenend after listening to those songs. I tell myself, "Nah.. stupid, I should be able to listen to it," and get the nerve to do so, but it always seems something bad happens after that. It sounds crazy, but it's true (maybe only in my brian, it's true..)
It sucks because it truly holds me back to do things without worrying about the outcome. I have been getting better at it and trying to ignore the inner voice telling me the certain numbers or songs are bad for me.
Superstitions supposed to reinforce the positive behavior, but in my case, it reinforces negative thoughts and behavior...
So, my friends, are you supersitious? Have that affected you positively or negatively? And do you know how to kick this bad habit of mine?
Here is one of my favorite songs "Save Room" by John Legend. (and i have so many favorite songs. lol) - So perfect for a beatufiul Sunday afternoon just like today...
Hope you're having a wonderful weekend!

I"m right there with ya! It's not blogging funk but priorities! Blogging has taken the back burner with me because of work, family and business. Simply, Life is taking over! :)
Hey there...don't worry about losing us...we are here with you whenever you can be here....you are a great mom and wife so you have to prioritize...
love that song!
m :)
don't worry missy! i'm a dedicated reader even if its only once a week! i give you mad props for blogging at all! i can't imagine doing all you do and still being able to blog!
I TOTALLY understand being busy with life. You won't lose us! Don't worry!
I understand about the time issues... Sometimes blogging has to take a backseat to everyday life.
I have this thing with numbers... I like even numbers and don't like odd numbers. I'm very aware of whether I'm starting something new on a odd or even number.
Oh Maki, we understand. No worries. Love John legend and I am with you on superstitions and songs. I avoid liking "negative" themed songs because i end up being in that situation. Coincidence? Maybe. Weird? Definitely!
Dontcha just love when life decides that bloggin's just not that important?
Yeah, got some songs here that I really cant listen to because of how they relate in my life (bad times).
Life>blogging. It's ok, we're still here :)
Don't worry, hon. even if you don't blog all the time, we'll still hang around. I used to have that fear too, and I blogged multiple times a day! It seems the best readers have stayed with me, and that's all I can ask...
Don't feel bad about not blogging as much. Schedules and availability changes all the time. Sometimes you're just busier than others. No bigs. I'm here to read anytime.
wow, for a second there i thought you were gonna quite on us, I was noo,
maki is cazy how i've seen you go from this stayed at home mother to working to owning your own bussines.

Thanks so much for your kind and warm words... I am happy and so fortunate to call you as my friend..
I'll stop pressuring myself:)
