You know you need to update your blog because your readers are going to start thinking that you’ve abandoned them but you REALLY don’t want to write another “sorry, I’ve been a bad blogger” post. Well you ... Read More

Taking on too much
Posted By Tina In behind the scenesUnless you haven’t been here for a while, you may have noticed some older posts and posts from Housewife Hiccups being posted. I’d offer an excuse explanation but instead I’m just going to say that having 2 blogs isn’t working for me, as much as I wanted it to this time. I really should stop starting a whole heap of things at the one time. It’s like the ... Read More
Remember Housewife Hiccups?

Subscribe Remind
Posted By Tina In behind the scenesYou know how some blogs have a little box above their posts that says something like "If you're new here, please subscribe to my blog"? I was googling to find out how to do that when I came across the Subscribe Remind plugin created by Trevor Fitzgerald.

Spreading yourself too thin
Posted By Tina In behind the scenesProminent bloggers tell you that putting yourself out there is great for your blog. So I put myself out there, joining many social media outlets but I'm thinking that because I've joined so many, I'm not using them to my full advantage. Not only that, it's taking up a lot of my time that I could be using to do other things. So, going along with my plan to "let ... Read More
