Lots of things have been happening lately. Well, to be honest, a lot of things have been happening since pretty much October 2011. Can you believe that was 4 months ago?! Yeah, me either.
Anyways, I have made a decision. I need 2 blogs. It sounds a bit insane, but let me explain. (bahaha I almost feel like a rapper)
I want a blog where I can post about my life, about things that are happening in it, things I think about & how I feel. I want a space where I can spill the mushy gushies & not feel like 90% of the people reading it are bored out of their minds.
At the same time, I want a blog where I can post the crafts/projects/adventures I am working on. I am not ready to commit to a full blown Etsy shop. I looked into it. But I really do not think I am at the point where I am ready to be charged to post my items & then charged again when I make a sale. Heck, I do not even think I have a big enough group of followers to actually sell more than 1-2 items anyways. It would not be worth it at this point to do something like that. In saying that, if you want to buy my stuff, just tell me. I will gladly give it to you & take some of your money. Which leads me to this:
Meet my new blog. I came up with her name when I was re-vamping a bit of my “me” section on this blog. I was writing about Ben & I said (yes I am going to quote myself), “In fact, our whole relationship has a thread of crazy running through it, but I would not trade it for the world.” I started really to think about that. Ben & I have been through a lot. But it is more than that. I, me, & myself have been through a lot. Most of it is good, but dang there have been a whole lot of absolutely crazy things that have happened to me that I would never in a million years have actually expected would happen to me. It is all that stuff I tell people & they do not believe me or doubt if it really happened. As normal as most of my life is, there IS a thread of crazy that runs through everything I do. & thus “A Thread of Crazy” was born.
Right now, that is going to be where I post all my crafts & projects. It just seems to fit well with the whole thread thing & my recent obsession with the sewing machine. “Think I Might….” still feels like the right place to vent/gush/talk about the more “me” part of things. Eventually I could absolutely see “A Thread of Crazy” becoming my one & only blog (& just separating the 2 parts). But as for right now, I am going to try to do the 2 blogs thing.
I hate to say it, but I already love “A Thread of Crazy” more than I ever loved “Think I Might….” so it is entirely possibly it gets the boot sooner rather than later, but we shall see.
