A Bit About My Blog

I've been posting on this blog a little over two months now, and i'm going to be honest with you by saying it's not exactly going how I planned. It's not because of followers or anything like that- i'm so happy that there are people out there who take the time to check out my blog and i'm grateful for every comment i've received so far. What I am unhappy with is the content.

When I decided to start a blog, I had a pretty good idea about how I wanted it to go. I already knew I would include posts about items i'd bought shopping, do some reviews and write some personal posts. Unfortunately, these ideas disappeared when I lost my job. At first I wasn't too bothered, I knew that it might be a little while before I could buy anything new or do any reviews on new products. But time has ticked on and four months later I'm still without a job.

I'm not giving up, I will find something soon! It just starts to get you down a little bit when you can't do the things you love (shopping!) and are pretty much confined to the four walls of your bedroom as you can't afford to go anywhere! By being on my laptop more though I have come up with a few ideas for some posts which will be up soon.

Once again, thank you so much for reading and I hope you'll stick around for future posts.
