Blogging Contest

Posted in Trina Tales

My dear friend Leah is having a contest. The prize is well worth entering. Plus, it's easy, and I have had fun reading other entries.

 

First of all, I am more of a morning blogger myself, dear Leah!

 ;-)

 

 

1. How long ago did you start blogging and why did you start?

I started blogging in February of this year, but on another site. It was a blogger site, but I decided to come over here with more like-minded gals.

 

2. How did you come up with your username/URL address?

I have a sign, in my house, that was given to me with that saying on it. I thought how true it was for me.

 

3. What do you enjoy most about blogging?

I love getting the feedback, and I love discovering how all these other moms are doing things.

 

4. What makes one blog stand out to you from all the others?

I love when someone personalizes their blog. Puts a little bit of themselves into it, so you know  a little bit about who the person is before you even get to their post.

 

5. On an average how long does it take you to write a post for your blog?

Oh...probably about 15 minutes or so. I normally have something on my mind already.

 

6. What has changed in your life since you started blogging?

I started thinking more about the little things in my life. The moments I would want to remember, but I knew I would forget. Plus, I love getting to know all the people. Some have really touched me.

 

7. Does your family support you (if so how) or do they think you're a blog addict?

For the most part my family supports me, and looks forward to reading my posts. Other times they think I am on too much. (they may have a point..lol)

 

8. Have you ever gotten a negative comment?  If so, how did you deal with it?

Surprisingly, no. A little shocking actually. I am grateful to the kindness.

 

9.How often do you check your blog for new comments?

Several times a day. I will just pop in and see if someone said anything. It ALWAYS makes me smiiiiiile!

 

10. Do you have a blogging tip you can share?

I just think you have to remember to blog for yourself, first and foremost. If you worry about how it comes across, or who will approve or disapprove, it will take the joy from blogging.

 

Thanks Leah, for another fun contest, and the prize ROCKS!!!

Trina got the secret question and gets entered twice!! =)

I loved reading your answers - I knew I would... I love your tip too about blogging for yourself. I SO agree with you. Blogging is all about just journaling your thoughts, feelings, and daily happenings. If someone comes along and reads it - that's just an extra! =)

I pop in and check my comments several times a day too. Like you, they make me smile and they light up my day. =)

I found you through Leah's contest. Don't you love those questions? I'm having so much fun reading everyone's entries. I stayed on your blog after I finished reading so I could sing with your music two or three more times -lol! Have a great weekend!

About Me

Ohhh...what 5 boys can get you into! Join me on my daily journey with my beloved sons, and on being the Godly wife and mother that I am trying to be! I was married at 17 to my first true love when he was 18. I know it sounds crazy, but we had both of our parents blessings. I had my first son at 18, well almost 19. I am 35, and will be married a whopping 18 years in June. I was homeschooled as a teenager in the 1980's, and I homeschool my boys as well. We live on 20 acres, and we allow the boys to roam and just be boys! Life is good and we are HAPPY!
