As my last post eluded to, I am currently doing a lot of research and soul searching – trying to figure out what direction this blog & website is headed. When I started out, the plan was to make it mostly about our house design. But every house has a family, and mine is with me every.single.day (at least in the summer), and so I was finding it easiest to do quick posts about US or posts about things that WE were doing.
But now, when I look back on my first 75 days of blogging, I’m seeing that there hasn’t been a lot of talk about Arrow Hill Cottage at all! That fact makes me a bit sad, and has me longing to sharpen my focus.
We are keenly aware that quite a few/ probably most of our followers up to this point are friends and family who know us well, and love to see images and videos of the things we are up to. And so although I will be trying to focus more on home design aspects, I am also planning to keep up some family blogging to a lesser extent.
Each Monday, you will still be able to log into YouTube and get a little recap of the previous week. Such as this video compilation, which includes tons of rainy day fun!
If you don’t subscribe to our family YouTube channel yet, we recommend you do so – because I won’t be making posts about each video we upload! We have all our videos organized into playlists for convenience of finding the content that you want to watch. As of right now, we have playlists for Family Home Videos, Arthrogryposis/AMC related videos and of course, our Weekly Photo Vlog.
On the blog, I plan to do one big recap near the end of each month or beginning of the next. This feature will be titled ‘AROUND HERE’ and will chronicle all that our family has been up to in that corresponding month (school starting, holidays, birthdays, eventually even house building!) If you click on the ‘AROUND HERE’ tab on the top of the website, you can access FAMILY ONLY posts through the ‘our adventures‘ menu and learn more about our HOME DESIGN & BUILDING through the ‘our home‘ menu.
Again, thanks so much for taking this journey with us!
PS: Planning on making the last post about our weekly meal rotation tomorrow, and after that the FOCUS will begin!
