The best plans often go awry. My plans to post a blog every day, for example. I start with the best of intentions, but then I go on a trip and off the net, attend family gatherings, come down with illness, or fall into emotional chaos. Looking ahead, I see the December calendar, complete with back to back social engagements, including a couple of travel days, and holidays.
While I agonize over the difficulties of posting once a day, several people post more than once a day. Multiple posts may be a picture, or a quotation, a three or four line poem, a re-blog of another person, or even a re-blog of their own work. No reason the rest of us can’t use these same techniques, at least to fill in during times we are crunched for time.
So I now construct a plan for December! I am so excited to share this plan with you. Feel free to use this plan as your own.
- Spread the love by sharing the blogs of others. So many talented people, and I’d hate for you to miss amazing bloggers. I would be delighted to introduce readers of my blog, to the blogs I love. If you have a blog you would like me to share, just let me know. I’ll do it as my Christmas gift to you, no charge.
- Re-blog favorite blogs from the past. I have been reading my old blogs, and I have many new readers. This sounds like a win/win to me.
- Post a holiday picture. Happy Holidays. Our own holiday pictures are totally free to share. Paired with a short poem, it’s a perfect post.
- Share a quote or season greetings.
Okay. That is my plan. There is one other thing I need to do for this plan to be successful. I need to plan ahead.
Bonus! all the way around if you ask me. You get to enjoy your holiday and plans with family and friends, and we still get to enjoy your company, win/win!

Great suggestions! Don’t forget that if you know you can’t post, you can always schedule for a given day. That comes in very handy! I love the idea of reblogging. It could be like it’s own little advent calendar of sharing! 🙂

Planning is overrated…and so it blogging sometimes. It’s a wonderful hobby but if it’s getting in the way of real life, it’s okay to take a step back.
