Blogging on ones smartphone can be a great way to post on the run. A downside to it is the auto correct feature that takes words you meant to say and turns it into something else. The result of that is a post that doesn’t make sense if you don’t proofread it, which I am guilty of doing. When blogging on your phone keep your posts short and be sure you proof as you go along. I encourage mobile blogging because its a great way to capture the events of life in real time. Your phone can be your friend in blogging.

Thursday, March 3, 2016 – The Week Is Almost Done
Hey friends I hope you are having a great day. The weather here is yucky this afternoon but that seems to be the norm as of late. I am ready for some spring time weather I think. Winter seems to have come and gone without fanfare.
The weekend is coming up close. I am ready for it. Let’s finish the week strong.
Dreading Things You Have To Do
Some things you have to do in life are tough and messy. They have to be done though. It is kind of like removing a bandage from your skin. You know its going to be painful but you just have to grip and rip. Everyday has those moments when you dread doing things you hate. Everyone has that one thing they have to do but hate to do it. So no matter what unpleasant things you have to get done today I hope you will do it with courage and some peace.
Happy Leap Day
Today is a bonus day for the year. February 29th is a day that we see every four years. Like the elections but more fun.
I Believe In Inclusion
Speaking as a person who has been on the outside of life looking in I know the value of being included. It’s my personal goal to be as inclusive as possible with people in my life. Being excluded from things sucks if you ask me. It’s human nature to want to be valued and needed.
One thing I have learned from my experience is that life is too short not to enjoy life. A lot of people on the fringes would like that same experience and consideration. So many times in my life I have heard about situations where people were having fun and I wasn’t a part of it. I want to be sure that people in my life know they are welcome and that they are valued and wanted.
About My Instagram Photos On My Blog
I use a service called IFTTT to add my Instagram photos to my blog. My reason for doing so is to make it easier to post a quick pic to my blog. The wildly popular photo sharing platform does some cool things to pictures and I want to bring that content to my blog. It is also another way to connect to you my blogging community. I don’t always like uploading pictures via the WordPress app and Instagram is much easier for a quick photoblog. Some folks prefer to keep them separate and that’s cool but for me I like bringing the two together. I wish Instagram would work natively without a 3rd party on WordPress.
Thanks to each of you who follow me on all my platforms. I appreciate your friendships and how you tell your stories of who you are and what you enjoy doing.
