Sometimes You Need A Little Change

When I first started out as a blogger almost three years ago (yikes!), I had no idea about where that would take me. I was just a writer who had stories and wanted to share them. And this blog has done just that for me. It’s also helped me meet many interesting people.

Through the years, I’ve had some big changes – I moved this blog to my own space and made a huge move from the Midwest to New York. But, the overall feel of my blog has been the same.

Over the past few weeks I’ve felt the need to mix things up a little. I think it’s because of a few different reasons:

• Frankly, I need a little change. I feel like there is so much more I can give to this blog.
• I saw the beginnings of a could be relationship and that made me wonder how things would go with the blog when/if that happened. And it made writing content on the blog hard since I didn’t want to talk about him.
• I have a lot of thoughts – sometimes too many thoughts. But some of them don’t make it to the blog because I write them down and then other things happen. So, by the time I get around to it, it’s either irrelevant or totally pointless to write about.  
• Some of my thoughts are what I would consider mini posts and I tend to be more of a long drawn out article writer. I want this blog to be a reflection of my talent as a writer, but also of who I am as a person. Sometimes I wonder if I am doing that.

I’m not sure if that explains my thought process, and, truth be told, there are tons of reasons that I feel the need for a little change. So, the point is, I am going to change things up a little around here.

Don’t worry, you’ll find the same kinds of posts and stories. I will still share all my crazy dating adventures and some advice here and there. But, I am also going to throw in my random thoughts, pictures, videos, my adventures around New York, and anything else that seems like it would be interesting to share. Of course, if you have suggestions for me, please share them! Even if it’s something you want me to see/try in New York. Send them all my way.

Since this is new for me and some of you have been with me since the beginning, I wanted to share my new ideas so things didn’t get really weird around here. Plus, if I write it down, it will kick my ass into gear so I will stop just saying “I should do this”. I am hoping this will be a fun and interesting change.

And, to everyone who reads this blog – whether you have read one post, ten posts, or been with me since the beginning – I thank you from the bottom of my heart.
