I am Feeling Blogadaisical

I am feeling rather Blogadaisical. If you are interested in the etymology you can look at the following:
lackadaisical \lack-uh-DAY-zih-kuhl\, adjective:
Lacking spirit or liveliness; showing lack of interest; languid; listless.
I think that the issue is that I am just frustrated with my writing. I haven't run out of ideas for posts. I still have plenty of those but I am very unhappy with the quality of my writing. I can't tell you how many posts I have trashed because I couldn't stand the garbage I pumped out.

My best writing just rolls right off of my fingertips and onto the screen. I like to think of it as being somewhat like sand from an hourglass. The challenge that I am facing right now is that this is just not happening. To give you another analogy it feels a bit like I am trying to run a marathon while stuck in molasses.

Which reminds me I have a taste for sarsaparilla. But I won't go there right now. Time for a new post.

i've been feeling a bit like that too lately. guess it's because i'm away from home, things aren't the same so i don't feel like blogging as much.

hopefully i'll have more photo opportunities that may spark enthusiasm again.

Not Quite Abandoned
