Break Out of the Blogging Rut

How do you start a blog post? Do you want the easy way to do it or the hard way?
The easy way is to say “write about whatever you want.” Welll…we all know that that doesn’t always work. Personally, I’ve been in one of those ruts lately. I’ve had very little motivation and it really shows. I’ve just been busy with real life. Yes, bloggers have a real life, too!

What am I excited for this summer?
- A VACATION! I hope it happens, although I’m kind of having serious doubts about it right now.
- Fresh produce. I love love love veggies.
- Arts & Craft fairs. Love these! Sometimes I just like to look, sometimes, I come to buy.
- Outdoor festivals.
- Swimming season. Here in the Midwest, they don’t open pools until Memorial Day, and they‘re closed by Labor Day. I don’t get it. At all.
- Ice Cream Man. I’ve only heard him a few times so far. I hope he comes back!
- Thunderstorms. I love a good, hard rain. Those are almost always accompanied by an outrageous thunderstorm. As long as there’s no tornadoes, I’m good.
- Warm weather. Although I could do without the 105 degrees + humidity it was today.
I could go on forever. What is bringing you summer excitement?
How Do You Think? #nablopomo

.jpg "How Do You Think? #nablopomo")
Do your thoughts jump around or glide?
It really depends on what I’m thinking about, and what else I have going on at the time. It seems at times that if I’m deliberately trying to think something through and get the details nailed down, my thoughts are all over the place. Especially if it’s a project I’ve been delaying. Those are the absolute worst!! However, if I’m working on a specific project, I have been known to have a brainstorming session just take over and another project works itself all the way through to completion.
However, if I’m out driving, that’s a different story altogether. It’s almost as if something else just takes over, and the thoughts just come pouring out. I do some of my best thinking while I’m driving.
I also find that if I need to get something hammered out, some good music helps. If I need to really get s afew things done, I'll put on some pop or club mixes. If I'm trying to brainstorm, I prefer something more melodic and almost folky.
Are you a jumpy thinker or a smooth thinker?
