Well, it's official. I am no longer a virgin. A blogger virgin that is! This is my first ever post on my very own blog! I, of course have no idea what I am doing or what all the technical mamba jambo stuff means but I am guessing I will figure it out through trial and error. Which probably isn't a good thing.... I hope I don't break any laws or rules along the way! That would be bad.
I haven't even told my friends or family that I decided to start writing my own blog. I'm not sure why. Maybe because this is the only thing that is all mine. Something I do not have to share with my hubs or my kids. Unlike the bathroom where I can NEVER seem to get any peace and quiet. Why is it that when the door is shut (and locked mind you) the family feels it is an open invitation to knock on the door and ask "What are you doing?" What do they think I am doing? My nails. Well, I have done that before but I mean seriously.
Anyhoo, as I was saying. This is something that belongs to me. Something personal. I don't believe anyone will ever read it and that is ok because this is more for my sanity than for anyone's pleasure. All opinions are mine. All mis-spelled words (and there will probably be a lot) are of my own doing. This is a place to record all of the crazy, sweet, stupid things my kids do so that I will remember them and be able to use them against them at certain specific times in their lives. (Like when the daughter is finally allowed to date and she chooses some loser we don't approve of. Oh yeah, out come the naked pictures and the stories. It's my job.)
We have had alot of, lets say stress, over the last few months and I have sometimes forgotten what good there is out there and what beauty. I really need to take the time to look around and appreciate how fortunate and blessed my life is. I need to hug my kids everyday. I need to stay connected with my friends as friends are as important as family. My hope is that by putting things on paper (or web as it may be) I will be reminded of all of those things.
