Merry Christmas!

It's December and that means only one thing! Blogmas or at least my own version of Blogmas. This year I wanted to write my own version of Blogmas, one that gives you lovely readers enough content but also allows me to not work constantly for the next 31 days. I love Christmas and would love to enjoy both the festive season and blogging. Blogmas puts so much pressure on those of us who love the festive season. As some one who's blogged for years I feel like I can safely say by the end of Blogmas most bloggers never want to hear the word Blogmas for at least another 11 months. SO, in the hopes of saving my own sanity I have wrote myself a set of rules which will hopefully allow me to contribute to Blogmas in my own way. 1, Content doesn't have to be festive. Throughout the next month some of my content isn't festive, infact its so removed from Christmas its unreal- and that's perfectly okay. Christmas puts pressure on everyone and sometimes us mere mortals need to have a minute without a mince pie or festive joy. The festive season is a difficult one, so having a break from festivities is a must for not only me but for others too. 2, Monday to Friday, only. Over the past few years I have realised that I am in no way organised to contribute daily to Blogmas. As much as I adore writing I simply run out of inspiration come December 27th. Most poeple read content at weekend so uploading 7 post in a week can be excessive and some readers may miss a great post you've worked your arse off on. Choosing to limit my Blogmas content came with a very heavy heart, if I'm totally honest I feel like I have let my self down a little, but for the sake of my mental health I have come to realise working full time and blogging daily is just too much for me right now.
3, ITS MY BLOGMAS.
As a rule blogmas runs form the 1st December to the 31st - that is a lot of content. I applaud any one who attempts to do this but for me personally, I don't think its a viable option. With that being said, this is my blogmas, on my blog so i felt that it was about time i rewrote the rules. I hope you understand and are ready for a few exciting introductions (including my monthly bar review to name one). Are you ready? I don't think I am, Continue reading Blogmas, my way.
