Box O Litter with Clumps & Chicken Breasts

"Blogging is a lot like a box of litter with clumps" ...
Speedcat Hollydale

After many years of this posting "things" almost every day, I seem to have learned quite a bit. In fact, when I started I was very much new to even using a computer and ventured out not understanding where or why I was blogging at all. For months my posts were just scribbles in space that nobody found or read. Search engines ignored me, and comments were almost non existent.
Slowly as I met others out there doing the same thing, I found commenting "pals". You know, the classic I comment on your blog ... you comment on mine. This became the new formula. Great system, until you become over-reached and commenting on one hundred plus blogs! Don't get me wrong, I love the communication and reading posts, but sometimes the time it requires is just not in the cards. My blogging bike is now more of an afternoon ride than a Tour de France marathon each week.
The aspect of creating material is also one that I think everyone has toiled with. Honestly, I never really know or plan what will be next. In fact, I simply started typing for this one. Making up crap as I go, to place in my blogging litter box. Soon this will be a buried clump of yadda yadda blah blah blah in the archives. I guess what I have found to be the best part of this blogging litter box is that it is never-ending. You can dig down through layers containing thoughts and memories from months and years past. Sometimes I turd cat toilet crapsimply just retreat back and relive moments in time. There lie some of my happiest moments ... some sad moments ... and even moments of massive life change. Of course, as I sift though the box I also find lots of random craps that still stink as bad as they did when first hatched.

Hi Speedy! Well at least your crap is interesting crap! ;)

As far as blogging being an afternoon bike ride, I say you can only extend yourself so far, so don't stress over it. We love communicating with you too but don't want you to get burned out over it. So keep the "crap" coming at your own pace. Just don't let it build up too long! LOL.
Hug, hug, hug!

I hear you with the afternoon bicycle ride, Speedy. I am so far behind at commenting, I don't think I'll ever catch up. Lovely image of the cat you posted for us there. HA HA HA! You're one crazy blogger and I mean that in a good way. :-)

So true Speedy, even if I was retired I couldn't keep up. Take your time and do what you want, never forget the fun factor has to come first for you. Cheryl :)
