A Virtual Playground

I have been blogging for about 8 weeks now and I have had my eyes opened to a brand new virtual world. Initially I was filled with excitement and joy, this blogging business is a great outlet for my inner ramblings and people will actually read it and comment on it! However, I am now filled with the new realisation that the world of blogging is actually very similar to a school playground with the same bullies and popular crowd that I spent my time avoiding. It's sad to read people's blog rants and know that they are aimed at you. Maybe that is my own insecurity speaking but I can't help how I feel. I logged on last night to find my blog an uncomfortable place to be. I actually thought about deleting it in a rage of annoyance and anger.

I am not going to do that of course, I am going to blog more. I am only going to take part in meme's that I really enjoy. I will write more posts about JC and get back to the main purpose of my blog as I feel it is losing focus. Here are the link ups/memes/bloghops I will be taking part in . . .

Mummy from the Heart runs a link up on a Friday called Reasons to be Cheerful. Michelle is a lovely lady
 who is always inspiring and positive.
Reasons to be Cheerful at Mummy From the Heart


Maxabella Loves . . . runs 'I'm Grateful for' on Saturdays and I usually combine my post with my cheerfulness one for linking up. Another lovely lady who always takes the time to comment on my posts. 

Kate Takes 5 runs a listography meme each Monday which I just love taking part in because I am really fond of writing lists and Kate always comes up with brilliant themes each week, genius! Photobucket"/>


Tara over at Sticky Fingers runs The Gallery each week which I just love because I am trying so hard to get better at my photography. Tara does a great job coming up with themes for our photos each week. 

I think I have said enough!

    What on earths happened??? You ok? I'm glad you've decided not to stop blogging. There have been a few posts lately that have rocked a few people I think.

    You've just reminded me I need to do my Listography as I missed the retro sweets one.

    So many blog posts, so little time.

    I'm fine now thanks, much calmer! You're right though about some people's blogs rocking people. It's hard being a new blogger as I'm sure you know. You try hard to follow the rules of blogging etiquette but it's hard to always get it right. Add to that how awful it feels to be told you're not doing things right and you just end up feeling really rubbish. How's your wee one doing now? Hope she's feeling better x

    She's better but I have it now (see new blog post). Thanks for asking.

    I wouldn't take anything personally on the blog front. I did a few weeks back when I saw a post and I started to have a bit of a melt down but then I realised it's not worth it. Just be yourself hun xx
