Ok so I’ve created a You tube channel. Of course, I have done the same thing with it as I did with this blog. Honestly, it is not like me at all because I am a go getter and usually can be accused of making ‘knee jerk’ decisions. So, in my mind the social media platforms would be right up my alley. BUT…maybe my procrastination self is trying to take over. I have watched about a billion you tube videos on ‘how to start a channel’ and every single one has said that just posting is the first step. But, what do I post about? Do I just post a video without editing? Or do I try to learn how to edit before? I have so many ideas on what the content will be but, what if it’s scattered content just like our lives? Should it focus more on recipes, DIY, kids, mom hacks, trips? Can we do it all?
…………………
I took a few hours to regroup, I was getting antsy. I would be letting myself down if I thought I could do it all because in the end we can’t. Let’s be honest mom’s we have a bunch of versions of us we would rather be and we have our Pinterest boards maxed out with things we want to do, that we may never have time to get to. I also, would be completely crazy if I stuck with one section of our lives for vlogging purposes because I would be doing an injustice to the millions of people out there. ( I know, I know, ‘Crystal you haven’t even posted anything’, I’m getting there people!) We have a busy life and it would be so fun to put it ALL out there. Right now, I am typing and my two year old is turning my sewing machine off and on , is trying to plug my laptop cord into the top of my computer while pooping in his diaper….all the while I am keeping my cool……that’s raw talent right there! HA!
All jokes aside, I am a stay at home mom that tries to wake up the same time every day to drive our kids to school on time. I try to clean the house, play with the baby, make dinner and help with homework. I am the mom who wants better for her kids than I had. I try to be the best supportive and loving wife that I can. I try to be the snuggle mom, the fun mom, the strong mom, the ‘I got your back mom’, the everything mom. There is only so much we can do and, in the end, if we try to show love and support to our kids today maybe a little more than yesterday, we are making progress! I am here for you and I know you can do it! First vlog is posting when this goes up. My first video is a quick intro and a time lapse of me cleaning the toy room with a toddler!! Y’all this is RIVOTING stuff! BAHAHAH!!!But wait, I’ve added a ‘moms mess ups’ at the end. OH and don’t mind the water mark…I’m not sure if I am going to use the software just yet.
