I always find that I have a burst of energy/creativity one week and then absolutely nothing. Yesterday I sat for an hour just trying to think what to blog about and in the end gave up trying. I know there are many a blogger out there who can churn out several posts a day, but I’m just not one of them!

So today, I did the regular computer routine of checking emails & bloglines for my daily fixes. Luckily, the fabulous Gala had her weekly links post and within it, was a link to generating ideas for blogging. So handy let me tell you! So taking the advice, I spent the evening not worrying, but watching back episodes on Threadbanger. Now I really want to crack out my sewing machine, so I may well do so tomorrow.

The other post which got me thinking this week was Susie’s post on how your blog is your space. We’ve established I’m not a several posts a day blogger, but following the jist of Susie’s post, it really doesn’t matter! This is my virtual space essentially - I want to love every single post I publish, because if I don’t love it, you won’t enjoy it anyway! I guess that’s one of the reasons why I love blogging - I get to show things that inspire me through a wonderful creative outlet and generally just have fun. As some of you know, I live in Birmingham and quite honestly, I have never liked it. One of the reasons I started a website when I was 15 (back in 2006, when this site was first born) was to escape to somewhere I do like and also to force me to be more creative rather than feeling stifled where I was!

What happened I ask you? I have no idea, but I know, strangely, I’m much less creative than I used to be. So it is my mission by the end of this year (mid year resolutions anyone?) to stop worrying and dive straight in! I will, un-apologetically, be precisely who I imagine I am, because the only one stopping me being that person, is me. And that last sentence applies to every single one of you!
