No Promises

So here's the deal. I haven't blogged in a VERY long time. You could easily go see that my last post was about recommitting to blogging, and it was in January. It didn't work.

It's true, I've been busy; but that's not why I haven't blogged. I just haven't had anything on my heart worth writing. That sounds sadder than it really is. I've been transitioning, learning how to be a stay at home mom, running like a crazy person, and figuring out who I am post-seminary. These are all big things, but I haven't felt the need to write about them. So I didn't.

Over the past few weeks I've found myself thinking, "that's interesting; I should blog about it" several times. So, I'm going to. Just this morning when I was making a list of things I'd like to blog about, I realized they are all women's issues. They are challenges that most women face every day. Questions we ask ourselves often. Who am I? What's my role? How do I fulfill my calling, yet take the time to be a good mom and invest in my child? Am I as pretty as she is?

I've never really considered myself a woman's issues advocate, but I've found some issues close to my heart and I'd like to share my thoughts. So, this will be my topic for the days ahead.

Then of course you'll get the obligatory "Holy cow I ran a half marathon and I need to share every little detail with everybody" blog post. I'm not sure what will come after that. Which is why this post is called "No Promises."

Design Note: In light of my new found love for fall, along with my topic of discussion for the next few days, I've chosen a girly/fall-ish background. I'm not sure how long I'll be keeping it, but for now, it's perfect.
