Can you believe it? We’re quickly coming up on the month of May. Do you know what you’re going to blog about next month? May will be here before we know it. A quarter of 2017 has already come and gone!
When I was little and just couldn’t wait for my birthday, Christmas or summer to come, my mother would tell me that the older you get, the faster time flies. I thought she was making it up, but I began to notice the truth of this after I had children of my own. How did I become the 40-something mother of a 20-year-old? When did my little boy get to be as tall as I am?
Now days time seems to fly even faster when I have a deadline to meet. do you set deadlines for your blog? I post a minimum of two days a week, but lately I’ve been aiming for three. That means planning ahead and writing a lot more. I started this list to help myself get organized. I thought I’d share some ideas with you.
