Writing practice = doing my blogs (ALL of them) this morning.

OK - here I go.



















It's about 8 a.m., and I have until 10 or 11 to finish ALL my blogs for the week. Or give it a try anyhow. BECAUSE I have other things I must do too.

I think it's good writing practice, BUT better writing practice would be finishing my books. I will join NaNoWriMo and get them done, for sure. Or write another one.

Here are the rules for my blog writing today: Each blog entry must be semi-interesting. That sounds easy. But it isn't always that way! AND I must add a photo or artistic line art into every blog entry. AND each blog entry must be pinged on at least 3 Ping sites.

Then we'll see how much traffic we get today and tomorrow.

I know, blogs should be updated every week - - or even more often.

But I think I've decided that I have WAY too many blogs. So this will have to do for now.

Do you have too many blogs? Are you a writer or artist? How do you keep getting more projects done each week or two? List your tips for me as a comment. Thanks.

Blogs, blogs, blogs - here's my list of my current blogs. I used to ask: too many? But not now.

I'm listing my blogs today.

 Every so often I think, why do I have so many blogs? I even wrote a Squidoo page about that. Right now the title is Lots and lots of my blogs. It used to be a question - Do I have too many blogs? People didn't think so. I do sometimes. But they are fun, and good typing and writing practice for me. I won't go into the websites.... or Facebook pages.... that's a posting for later.

Here is a list of some other ones I write:

#1 (newest) is my Girl Scout Betsy blog. It is for Kentuckiana GS Council and beyond. I added some pages at the top too. It has Journey Helps, Girl Scout Opportunities, events in the Kentuckiana area (selected ones... I could never list them all!), and general Girl Scout talk. Which I like. It's handy for me to have a place I can go to access links I use a lot. So it's a practical blog, really.

#2. The Nontraditional Student blog is one of the Nontrad blogs I started when I went back to school after a LONG break. It was something I wished had been available then - a place to talk about all things Nontraditional - and to help with support with those feelings like not being able to do it, feeling out of place, feeling older than everyone else, and more. I have plans for this blog (which I recently also have a copy of on the website here.) So this is definitely a blog to keep where it is.

#3. From the Garden Spot plus BG events has morphed from an Anything Goes blog to a Calendar of events in and around Bowling Green, Kentucky to another personal blog page. Sometimes I think of morphing it again to combine with this one.

#4.  Find Scholarships and Grants was a natural site to pick after the Nontrad blog, because everyone going to school needs more money. I get to tell people which sites are best, etc. - I may put this one on the Nontrad site and call it good. It would hopefully still have a search feature on it, and be still useful.

#5. Squidoo Liz was a blog I loved when I was more active on Squidoo. Maybe I will be again, though, so I'm keeping this blog for now. The moguls on Squidoo are making a decent income from it. I, however, am making a bit of change from it. But it's still nice to get that.

Do you have a blog or blogs too? List them as a comment. I'd love to see them.

My updates, GS Betsy site, projects, and news. Thanks for visiting!

It's been awhile! This blog has not been updated for awhile...

Welcome. This is my personal blog. You never know what I may talk about here!

FYI: My newest blog is Girl Scout Betsy. It is an information blog about events and trainings, Journey helps, and more for GS volunteers and leaders.

Juliette Low - the founder of GS in the U.S.












<above> - - Juliette Low was a brave woman. I admire her.

I think it will be a good place to keep information for myself too.

So how come no postings for awhile? Here is why. When I added my new blog, this blog went on Page Two of my list on Blogger that I use. So I didn't see it until I used a link today. Ack!

More things happening this summer:

1. I am making some more Fairy Doors downtown,
My favorite - sold it.

2. I am reading a book manuscript and getting my book chapters done,

3. I am writing lots and lots of To Do lists.

As I go through boxes that I have here at home, from book boxes to misc., I am finding surprises - - things I forgot I even had. So that is fun.

The rabbit is back - - we saw him the other day.

Across the field, the farmer has some horses now and did have some really cute donkeys. It is neat to see them as I drive down the road.

We joined the Lost River Cave which is nearby here so we can go walking there again. It is so pretty there.

All for now, and hopefully either I will write more here, OR you may see Girl Scout Betsy in the title next time you visit. We'll see.
