I am most probably one of the most UNORGANIZED/DISORGANIZED people you may ever have the (dubious) pleasure of meeting!!
I do NOT plan my blogs ahead. I do NOT schedule posts! I do not have reminders on my phone! I am convinced I'll just remember everything off the top of my head......hahahahha and I do...mostly! Hence some mornings my so-called morning posts only happens past midday. No comment.
Due to that fact and how time is just seeming to FLY past these days I'm often blogging and posting on the run. Probably a sucky work ethic...but then, I am not working currently so I can't really see the problem? And yes I know one should be consistent and the blog should be planned ahead for quality and whatnots BUT point is....I am doing this blogging thing for fun! The moment it's not fun anymore I am going to have to quit.
Having said that and yes I just admitted to being a bit of a doozy where planning and posting is involved I just cannot believe how little time I seem to have daily to catch up on blogs and posts and various forms of social media platforms although it often feels like it's all I do.
Sunday past marked our six month island-versary, yes, I know that word does not really exist. i cite freedom of speech and writing to just make up my own. :)
I'm not sure how I feel about the six month mark yet. To me it seems that people will say they're happy just to avoid sounding churlish with living on an island, something which I refuse to do. I am used to access to more diversity in all forms and I miss that. I miss getting in my car to visit my family or to take a drive around the peninsula on a weekend. I miss seeing my friends back home. I'm not UNHAPPY and I am NOT clamoring to get on the first plane back but one has to be honest and admit that island life definitely has it's ups and downs. Often the downs are more than the ups but...I am still here. Busy as a bee. Being so busy came as a big surprise because before moving here I was honestly wondering how on earth I was going to fill my days and here I am complaining about lack of time. I suppose we'll never be satisfied.
So NO spectacular morning thoughts this morning. Hope I didn't disappoint too much. Just having my coffee and thinking that my morning post are late yet again.....I should rename them to daily thoughts perhaps instead to be on the safe side.
I can just conclude by saying. Be sure to make the most of every minute in every day. We're never getting it back. Have a beautiful day.

Nope, that's me! Lol
Do they? My best posts are the spontaneous ones, the ones I started to write without knowing how they would end.
I really admire how you can write 'casual' posts like this, and make them enjoyable to read. For some reason, I can't (well, I probably can, I just don't know how to, lol)
Have you ever tried Ulogging, btw??

@simplymike hi stranger! My apologies. I saw this comment and I was gonna come back and reply but completely forgot.
So we're twinsies in being disorganized.. 😂 😂 What's your starsign? 🤔 Mine is gemini. ♊
Thank you for the compliment. I have always enjoyed writing and I do feel the more I do it the easier it becomes. But I should plan better.. 😂 I do suck at that. I do use the ulog from time to time. I just sometimes forget. So many tags to remember. 😂 This blondes brain is tired half the time. ❤️

No need to apologize. Being inconsistent and disorganized are my superpowers. Just last week, I was running 7 days behind on replying to comments. You're lucky, actually. Normally I start with the oldest one, but I had just commented on @tryskele's post, which I meant to do two days ago, but forgot. She replied, and below her reply I saw yours. Lol. If that wouldn't have happened, it would probably have taken at least three days before I got back to you.
Glad to know it's not just me... that there are people who are almost as disorganized as me 😁
I'm also a terrible procrastinator. Bad combination, lol.
I'm Aries by the way. In Dutch, it's called 'ram'. If people ask me, my standard reply is that I'm 'ramp', which means disaster, haha.
I've learned that no matter how much you do your best to plan things, life finds a way to sabotage them in one way or the other.
I would love to set up schedule, a planner for my content, but I know it won't work out anyway.
The tutorial about the RSS feed I published earlier this week, was meant to be posted 2 months ago... I just never got to it.

Oooh, yeah, that's gonna be my new motto. :) Because it's true:

Thanks for this, simplymike and dkkarolien!

😂 😂 I had to laugh at your post. Aries in Afrikaans (my first language) is also ram... And ramp in Afrikaans also means disaster.. 😂 So we're basically on the same page because as a gemini ♊ we're very close in starsigns so just goes to show the similarities. Planners, schedules? 🤔 Pffft what's that? Can I eat it? 🤔 😂 😂 Hubby always tells me... The road to hell is paved with good intentions... That is our family in a nutshell. 😂 There's another saying depending on how religious you are.. Man plans and God laughs. I fully believe in that too. I enjoy your answers back. It resonates well within me and I had a good giggle now.🤭 😏

Lol, I forgot you spoke Afrikaans - so similar to Dutch :0)
I'm definitely going to hell, then - if I would believe there is one, hahaha
Sometimes I fool myself and I make them. Only to never look at them and not follow up what's in there... :0/
I learned a lot about plans, these last couple of years. No matter what, if you have a plan, life sabotages it , so why bother in the first place? (lol, I just see that I'm repeating myself, haha)
The funny thing is, sometimes I have a plan, like going home early or have a quiet weekend. And then my friends laugh at me, and i'm genuinely mad at them for not believing me.... But afterwards, it always turns out they were right laughing at me. The fact is that I still fool myself every time again

You are not alone!
I just cannot believe how little time I seem to have daily to catch up on blogs and posts and various forms of social media platforms although it often feels like it's all I do. Anyone who claims otherwise is not telling the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth. :)
I've read dozens of books on organizing, goal-setting, and all that, only to assert my vow to "live in the now"--an excuse to surrender to my contempt for clocks, calendars, commitments, and obligatory things like birthday greetings and token gifts for too many newly manufactured occasions (secretary's week, e.g.).
"Be sure to make the most of every minute in every day. We're never getting it back." And remember that we all have a finite number of heart beats. Will you squander yours trying to keep up with the expectations others have of us?
