Losing My Blogging Mojo and Taking a Break

Well it has 12 days since I last wrote a blog post and truth be told I just haven't been feeling this little part of the internet for the last couple of weeks. I know most bloggers lose their mojo every so often and that it is totally normal. I have just been left so uninspired and really down about it in all honesty. I have been blogging just under a year now and have really enjoyed it thus far but I just don't know where I want this site to go from here.

Blogging for me is all about sharing my opinion and keeping a little diary of all the wonderful times I spend with James and Ailsa. I do constantly worry though that my photography is not good enough or my writing is not good enough or that I am not getting enough views etc. These things have really taken the fun out of it for me even though I know I really shouldn't compare myself to anyone else as we all have our own set of skills and we are all learning by doing.

These past couple of weeks I decided to take a complete break from blogging. I hardly spent any time on the computer and just focused on myself and my family and it has just been wonderful (apart from a sickness bug but that's a whole other story). I have come to realise during my break that I do miss sitting at the computer and typing out a post but that I need to do it when I can without pressure. Ailsa only has one nap a day now and I need to spend time with her so blogging needs to take a backseat at those times and that is OK. No one is forcing me to sit and write and I need to stop putting that pressure on myself and taking the fun out of it. Of course I would love for Being Mrs Lynch to grow but at the moment I need to just enjoy it and let it grow naturally and trust that my skills will improve over time too. No one starts off as an expert and that is ok.

So I am back to blogging, I am hoping that my ideas will start flowing soon. Sometimes you just need to put pen to paper (in this case finger to keyboard) and get to work. I am going to blog as and when I want for now to keep up the enjoyment but hopefully without such a long break.
