I think every post I write lately starts with, "woah I haven’t written in awhile". It’s true though, I've gotten really bad for writing every week. With a full time job, I’m usually so tired when I get home that I just want to eat dinner and watch TV. I forget however how much I enjoy writing these blog posts. Nearly 3 years ago I started this blog to document my journey to Toronto and my life here. I never thought I would keep it up! I did it so family and friends can keep up with my little life as it’s not always easy to explain what’s going on over the phone or on a quick text. I also enjoy when I’m home and people say something about my blog posts, I’m always shocked that people actually read it besides my family and close friends. I always say “ah stop, you read it, it’s shite”.
Obviously it’s not an extremely successful blog and I’m ok with that! To me, I am proud that for someone with dyslexia that I do keep a blog.I know that people can read it and potentially see my mistakes, misspelling etc but I continue to do it because I enjoy it! We all have struggles and difficulties but I try never let mine get in my way.
One of my new year resolutions was to write more posts, I know it’s February and this is my first one but January was a struggle for us all! Haha. Another resolution is to try care less about what people think of me, what I mean by that is, in today's social media world we are questioning everything we do and if it is prefect enough. I put up a picture on Instagram the other day but I wasn’t going to because I thought it wasn’t “perfect”. My coat was bulky and I felt it made me look bigger than I am but then I said “f*ck it”, I liked the picture and it’s bloody winter I have about a millions layers of clothes on! Lol!
My point really in all of this is that I’m going to continue writing my little blog even if 5,50 or 500 people read it! I enjoy taking pictures for it and even more excited to take more pictures with my new camera. I also love looking back over the previous posts to see how things have changed or not changed and I enjoy sharing my life no matter how perfect or imperfect is it!
In my coming posts, I will be putting up some after pictures of our new apartment, just waiting on one more thing to be delivered before I take my last picture. I might also put up a before and after video. I’m going be writing about our up and coming trips that we’ve planned and I need to bring back Foodie Friday as I think they're my favourite posts to write!
We are off to The Coronas tonight (again). We only went in December but they were brilliant! Have a great weekend!
