Personal: About my life and being a blogger

Personal: about life and being a blogger

When I started blogging about two years ago, I never imagined this site would be picked up this fast. In just a few months I had more visitors an page views than I thought was possible for me. But it was, and it made me really enthusiastic about this blog. The first 6 months I put up a blog post every single day. I loved it so much and I dreamed about it being my full time job.

Then I got sick. Severe pregnancy nausea. I couldn’t do anything and blogging was my last priority at that time. But I missed it, like I missed out on so many things back then. I’m still at home because now I have instability, again due to my pregnancy. So I’m still not able to do many things. But it’s getting better slowly. And really, my little boy makes it all worth it! He is the best that has ever happened to me. I love my little family!

Now it’s a year since I’ve got sick and stopped blogging regularly. I find it hard to get in the flow again, but I will get there! I want this blog to be a success and I want to keep inspiring you. I have many ideas for crafts, recipes and more. This blog is very important to me, and I promise I will get it back to where it ones was (plus more!).

A few months back I started blogging in Dutch too, but the plugin I used (qTranslate) was slowing my site (much) down, so I decided to go back to English only. If you want to read it in Dutch I suggest you could use Google translate.

Well that’s it for now. I hope you will keep reading my blog in the future and I promise I will be back tomorrow with a new post! XO Wilma

Why I didn't post that much this week…

this week

Above you see a few pictures of my week. I wasn’t able to post much this week because of a little accident. I burned by arms and right hand by a burst of flame from my pretty fifties stove. Yes I still think it’s a pretty stove, I’m only a little bit afraid of it now. We don’t know yet why it happened. We think it might be that the oven was not completely turned off and had build up some gas inside. But we don’t know that for sure. I know that I was very lucky, it could have been a lot worse.

My boyfriend baked his first ever cookies in the oven this week, so it looks like the oven is fine. Of course we are very cautious when we turn it on. We have steps now for it:

Step one: Open the door of the oven.
Step two: Smell for gas.
Step three: If you don’t smell gas you can turn it on.

Of course I will be back posting new tutorials and stories as soon as I feel a little better! I think I also have some stuff for you that I allready made pictures of but didn’t post yet. So stay tuned! XO Wilma
