Back in the time before lead pastoring, when I was writing four blogs a day, I would have writing sessions. In those sessions which came about twice or three times a week I would write and schedule several blogs at a time into their respective time slots. I had a pretty organized schedule of which blogs were posted when.
These days I am happy when I just get seven blogs a week done on “Notes From the Vicarage”. I haven’t yet figured out how to schedule each post into its respective time slot, because while I am writing everyday (or just about everyday), it is still catch as catch can as to what time the writing gets done.
I had worked out a pretty good rhythm before life changed, but I am in a new movement in the symphony of life and so I am still figuring out the new tempo, meter and rhythm of this particular section. Part of this change is learning to give myself grace and space as I hunt and peck my way to my new normal. It’s funny. It took me almost two years to realize I needed a new normal.
ARE YOU A STICKLER FOR SCHEDULING OR DO YOU FIND IT EASIER TO JUST LET LIFE HAPPEN?
Notes From the Vicarage 
I know that somethings have to be planned and timed, but I blog for my pleasure, and possibly for posterity. (Ie I hope that one day my children will read what I have to say)I certainly don’t feel bound to do it every day or every week. I am under no illusions that anyone is anticipating my words!! It’s a bit like dusting or hoovering. I do it as and when. whereas I have to have a bath or shower every morning. no question!

I love all the different mindsets the community of bloggers possesses. There is so much we can learn from each other about how to live life more effectively. I want to be more free and spontaneous. My lack of adventure and spontaneity is one of my weaknesses.
