I love the way your blog is set up - I especially love the blogging schedule! I may just have to incorporate that into my blog. I've seen it done on others but never thought much about it. Like you, I would be blogging if no on ever read or clicked on my blog. It's my free therapy haha! I've found some great posts on your blog and can't wait to read more!

I just reserve that day for that category. If I have nothing to share that day, I don't post. I probably more like five or six posts a week. But I agree with you. It's hard to find the time. Writing isn't the most time consuming for me...promoting my post is.

How do you do it? My schedule is once a week and I know it is not enough. Your green yard and garden is gorgeous. Love those cute teal pants.

I think that Between the lines has given us all the opportunity to find other fabulous women in our niche. My audience is also younger although I really started out writing when I retired and trying to encourage other midlife women to get out there and give life a go! Have a great week and I can't wait to explore more of your blog.Sue from Sizzling Towards 60 & Beyondhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15418770845484399102noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1365694657538005233.post-67225850403781461542016-05-03T21:26:32.189-05:002016-05-03T21:26:32.189-05:00Love this!

I enjoyed reading your post and you have a lovely garden, family and blog. I totally understand what you said about getting bloggers our age to engage. I've been at this for 16 months now and yes, I do believe the younger bloggers are my main readers. As you, trying to get women my age to be a part of my daily reads has been a challenge. Feel free to link up any posts on Thursdays on my blog at Party at My Place which begins at 6:00 am EST. I'd love for more bloggers in our stage of life to be a part of it. You can find me at grammietime2.blogspot.com or see Katherine's list this week. My post will be out tomorrow due to another commitment.

Liked your post too. I'm going to follow your advice about listing your blog schedule on the sidebar. I've watched a lot of youtube channels where they use that system and say that works very well.

I love papercrafts, too, but don't do a lot of it - I'm teaching myself crocheting at the moment. I'm trying not to have serious yard envy right now. We have 2 acres, but it's much more rustic and much less planned. My kitchen and I are not close friends, maybe that's because too many of our cats and dogs love to sit and watch (and try to sneak something when I'm not looking)! And if what I know about fashion was a piece of cloth, my 'knowledge' could be wadded up, stuck in a thimble and have half the room left over! *lol*<br /><br />I'm trying to subscribe to the over 50's blogs as I work my way through, and maybe some of the social media links after I've read and commented on the blogs. :O)LuAnn @ BackPorchervationshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01775630749079885915noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1365694657538005233.post-10365236131508953852016-05-03T11:53:11.212-05:002016-05-03T11:53:11.212-05:00Such a pleasure meeting you Amy.
