I recently took time to label my blog posts, mostly for my own convenience since I tend to post things like recipes here and forget to print them out. Maybe you noticed the new labels along the right side of the landing page?
Anyway, I was surprised by how many (or few) posts fit into certain categories and am wondering what it says about me.
For example: the vast majority of my posts fit into the "deep thoughts" or "funsies" categories, which either says that I'm confused about whether to share deep or silly things on here, or that I like them both and am both. I'm going with the latter. (Of course, those who know me know that I'm way more on the "deep" side than the "funsy" side, but I'm workin' on that).
Another example: Second runners-up: books and food/recipes. No surprise there. Two of my favorite things. My labels have got me pegged.
My husband ranks around third, but at least he's in the top three, right?
Surprisingly low number of labels? Music, adoption, travel, & teaching--some of my greatest loves. Well, truth be told, music isn't one of my greatest loves. I'm more of a I-love-to-sing-and-play-instruments kind of music lover more than a band-groupie-concert-going music lover. But the rest of them are LOVES of my life, so why am I not writing about them more often? Lots of reasons, but mostly, I think it's sometimes most difficult to wrap what you love into the confines of words. It's also probably why there are a lot of "funsy" posts because "funsies" are easy to write about.
Now it's your turn. What do my labels say about me that I've missed? So much unplowed territory. Knock yourself out.
And the burning question: how do I label this post???

I love psycho-analyzing! :) I think you don't write about some of the things you love so much because not only are they hard to fit into words, they are more fun to DO than write about sometimes...like travel and exercise!
