Hey guys!
Do any of you ever experience a little blogging slump? I feel like that just now. It's not that I have nothing to write about, I just feel like if I did write it, it would be rubbish! I've not done any makeup posts because my skin is still suffering after having the flu last week. I can't seem to shift the dark circles and the tired sallow skin - I've not stopped to give it some TLC right enough so I should probably get on that... I feel like I'm putting pressure on myself to get something written because I feel guilty for not writing anything. It's a weird feeling when blogging is your hobby, but I think you still feel a responsibility to grow as a blogger and produce stuff that you're continually proud of - with the pressure of making sure posts are regular. It's no different to any area of my life really I always put pressure on myself about pretty much everything! I've typed several posts and just deleted them because I didn't think they were worth publishing!!
I've been busy too I guess, I'm back to work this week doing training, which is far more brain melting than a busy 12.5hour shift! And I joined the gym at the weekend and have only had one day off from there (I'm off again tonight and tomorrow - and Sunday morning!). I was feeling like my fitness levels were affecting how tired I've been getting, and how I seem to have caught every bug/illness going recently. I hadn't properly exercised since I tore the ligaments in my foot in October, and believe me I just feel SO unfit. I can't wait until I start to really feel the benefits from the exercise again as my fitness starts to pick back up - but right now that's taking most of my energy too. I love blogging and that wont ever change, but if I don't feel right I need to wait until I do. I guess I just wanted to give a little update for anyone that's wondered why I've pretty much gone missing over the last week or two. I'll be back up and running in no time!
Hope you feel better soon lovely :) and get your inspiration back! I've just joined the gym too after feeling so tired all the time, such a mission! Xxxx
ReplyDeleteThanks Gemma! I'm going to get a post up tomorrow. I'm starting to feel the benefit from the gym mostly now which is good, but now I need go sort out my sleep pattern...there's always something! Haha xxx
DeleteTotally know what you mean. Having something pretty similar myself going on:(
ReplyDeleteIt's so hard ot dig yourself back out of the hole but once you have you'll feel refreshed and ready to take on the world (take it from someone who's done it a few times! All the best.
