Mental Health for the 21st Century - AKA Blog Avoidance Syndrome

I started writing in this forum to bolster the habit of daily writing and to force myself to go beyond the seemingly random wanderings of my private journals. In short, I figured the prospect of a potential audience would help add structure and direction. Nice thought.

I haven't managed daily anything in relationship to my blog except - Blog Avoidance. Something about writing for public consumption started making me squirm. Hell, what have I got to write about? Certainly, no one would be interested in the daily farm life of a novice like me. Who on earth wants to read about chickens? Or horses?

Ok, I didn't get that part right either. Turns out loads and loads of people are writing about chickens. And horses. Just go to Google and search for "chicken coop plans". When I did just that this morning, I got nearly 2,000,000 results. Who knew?

So there's another lesson learned for this novice farmer: I am not alone! Now, if I can only figure out the best ways for containing mounting piles of chicken shit.... Happy Easter
