I like this post but I must say I counted about 25 posts on your first page, and they cover just from Dec. 31 to Jan. 17, and idclune several downloads this is called writers’ block? Hmmm lol I know what you mean though, about having so many thoughts to line up! The idea notebook is a great idea, and I just started one myself on Jan. 4. My intention for it is to take it with me pretty much everywhere I go, and write down any blogging ideas that may come to mind, plus urls I might want to go to, that I read about in a magazine while waiting somewhere, and anything else that comes up that I need to remember. I feel that by keeping a notebook like this it will help cut down on paper clutter also. It will be much better than having piles of little pieces of paper with bits of information written on them! Then at the end of each day (or possibly just each week) I can go through what I’ve written and transfer the urls to my internet binder and my blogging ideas to another binder, and anything else to wherever else it needs to go.Hopefully the idea notebook that you lost will turn up sometime, and you’ll find blogging ideas that you forgot about, just in time when you need it for another new post!
