Socially awkward ....
Ya know ..... I am just awkward. And to tell ya, I don't know what to do about it.
You know .... that social media thing.
I try. And I try. And I don't know what to do.
If you are at any business conference or marketing meeting .... they talk social media and working it.
And I attempt to do what they tell me to do..
I tweet and facebook and MeWe and I've been linked in for ages. I have tried Google + but I still don't get all those circle things. I am totally pinteresting and I know I am on other sites that I can't remember! Then, I blog ..... and I blog .... and I blog.
I write lists and I ask questions. I post pictures and I try to be cute and clever and knowledgeable.
And still ..... I am inept.
I am sooooooo not getting it.
I mean .... what are the right keywords and tags and SEO's??? And statistics and numbers and advertising???
All I want to do is talk about pretty flowers, canned tomatoes and a new pair of hand-knitted socks.
I have been blogging for almost 7 years now. Most of the blogs I followed are long gone. Facebook is easier ... quicker .... but even that, seems to be fading a bit.
But I like blogging .... I like putting my words down on "paper" ...........even if they make some of my grammar teachers toss and turn in their graves!
So what do I do??? Where do I go???
Am I talking in a world that I no longer belong?? How do I tell you about my pretty flowers??? And what would Debbie and Mona read first thing in the morning???? (That's a shout out to my friends!!!! I love you guys!!!)
Where do I fit??? Is it worth writing on??? Are you reading and are you wanting more? And how can I make it better?
I know I will never make a living off the blog .... I will never be a "life-style blogger" ..... and no company is going to say, "Hey ... let me sponsor you" or send me reproduction hardware for my new door or paint for my house.
And it is painfully obvious .... this is no fashion blog!!!!
I have to admit, it would be really nice if a appliance company and detergent company would promise to take care of this!!!
