I haven't been blogging for a year yet so I am by no means an expert but since its all about our blogs for this week's WWTK this is what I can tell you:
{1} Please describe your blog. Does it fall into one category or many? How has it changed from post one?
Honestly I don't think it falls into a category but since I'm a working mom and I blog about our life in here in Belgium, if anything I would say it is a: Working mom brain dump - kinda blog.
I was blogging for quite a while before I had any readers but I don't think my style has changed much. Now that I have some followers out there I can't actually believe that there are people out there who will take the time to read it. I get so excited about every new follower - thanks guys you are crazy to read it but I do appreciate every one of you!
{2} What 3 things do you LOVE about blogging?
1. 'meeting' other women. It seems that you have to be a blogger to get that you can be friends with someone even if you have never met.
2. I like knowing that one day when my kids are big they will be able to go back and read about the things they said and did. It's a virtual diary of our lives.
3. Very few of my friends here in Belgium have kids. Reading other blogs is a way of being reminded that there are other women our there trying to do it all. It's a way of staying sane and connected.
{3} What 3 things do you DISLIKE about blogging?
1. That I don't get paid to read blogs, it would be the perfect job for me!
2. When I have nothing interesting to blog about. There are so many bloggers out there who are funny and entertaining and I love reading their blogs. Then there is me ... with a pretty boring life. Then I have to remind myself that I'm not blogging to impress anyone, I'm blogging for myself.
3. When I can't take part in things because I'm an international blogger :( I do get it but it can be annoying!
{4} What 3 things do you WISH OTHER BLOGGERS would do? Any tips for them?
1. Comment - even if it is to say 'Hi'
2. I know it's hard because some of you get loads of comments but it is so nice to get a reply to a comment that you left on someones blog. I know I love know that someone took the time to read my comment.
3. Word verification! Get rid of it!
{5} I know we all have lots of blogs we read, but what are 3 blogs you never miss?
I can't list only 3! I have a whole list of blogs that I try to really hard to read/check for new post every day or every other day. So I'm going to give you my top 5 - go check them out!
