Well thanks to @jonathagarcia (twitter) I have found a way to kickstart my blog.
I started this a few weeks ago but just a short time into it I fell ill. Very ill for for 2 weeks and I lost momentum. I was wondering how I woud get it back. Then I read on johnathans twitter that he had taken a 30 day writing challenge specifically for his blog. I love writing. I love this blog idea. I love a challenge. And this challenge is so much more exciting than the last one I undertook which involved eating bran every morning and lots of veges..not that theres anything wrong with that but I was uninspired by the outcome. To say the least.
So this challenge involves writing every day for 30 days without fail, on a predetermined topic. The topics are on the right hand side of my post and I will start at day 1 tomorrow.
As I looked through the topics I wanted to start changing them. Adding a few new ones, taking a few out, changing the order around. 5 minutes before I read the list I was stumped! Blocked in the biggest way! mmm perhaps I could just take the suggested road and not worry too much about wether or not its perfectly laid out for me to travel smoothly. Perhaps thats why I am where I am right now. Waiting for the perfect moment to start something is a very long wait indeed.......perhaps its not just writing where I am standing at the turning point wondering which way to turn, hoping I have a perfect route to negotiate before i set out....perhaps over the next 30 days I may learn a little more about that..
And also I hope to give my blogging/twittering/facebooking pals something to ponder/comment on/snigger at/blush about...and share your thoughts with me...after all, this is less about self absorption and more about connection...

I look forward to reading more of your posts. Glad to see you keeping up on the blog too!
