Want the good news or the “omg” news first? Good news? You got it.
I’m going to be starting work again.
That’s all I’m going to say for now since I haven’t had my first day back yet.. I’m still a little nervous about how I’ll react being that I haven’t worked in two years. However, given that I have time to write.. keep an eye out for a post about my first week back at work on August 14th!
Waiting for the “omg” news, right?
For the month of August, I’m thinking about doing a complete blog overhaul. This is where I need your input!
I really want to add more menu tabs and separate my beauty, lifestyle, and personal posts (just to make it more appealing to find what you want to read). I also wanted to maybe try out writing opinion posts? I wrote for a few organizations during the primaries here in the US, but I’ve never integrated my social or political opinions into this blog. Any thoughts?
In terms of my blog, I also have a ton of posts scheduled (but very few drafted, as I’m writing this). But I wanted to know what you’d love to see more of. Since I’ll be working, I’ll have more wiggle room with trying out new products and writing more lifestyle posts (since I can afford to go places now). Along those lines kinda I’d also love to know what changes you’d personally like to see here (like pictures in every post, maybe? that type of thing).
I blog for me, but I also blog for you. I want to make a concerted effort to get to know you (my reader(s)) and what you look for in your reading material. This should be enjoyable for all parties involved, know what I mean?
Let me know your thoughts/feelings/questions/concerns/suggestions,etc. below!
Until next time,
♥Char.
I’d love it if you’d check me out on social media too! You can find me at the following links: Facebook, Instagram, BlogLovin, and Pinterest ♥♥♥
Good luck getting back into the groove of work again! Overhauling the blog is a lot of work (said from experience lol)

Overhauling my blog is my worst nightmare! I know that it’s so hard to get constructive feedback, too. I think images in every post is a great place to start.

YAY! Overhauling is fun, stressful, and rewarding. It IS a lot of work, but it’ll pay off!

Good luck. Blogging is exciting but overhauling can be very tiring. Take it slow.

Congratulations on the job, I’m so happy for you! Writing in bulk is super helpful and I can’t wait to read all of the different topics you want to write about.

We’re currently in the process of switching things up too. I think the best things to do are polls on social media and collect the results, but I hope it works out. I think it would be cool to have separate areas for each subject!
Also congrats on the job! I hope it goes well for you! (Come next year I’ll be in your position too lol!)
