I had a blog way back before it was something EVERYBODY did. Then I had a blog for awhile right after I became a mother. Those blogs were for others – not for me. My first blog I was trying to be “hip.” Or something. Trying to compete with all of the bloggers at the time who seemed much younger than I was. My LiveJournal was for others as well. I wanted people to comment and like me. I am hoping to keep this blog for me. I’m not really sure what my goal of it is or for that matter why I even want one. I keep a journal for myself. That is not what I want this to be. I probably won’t write about the newest cute thing one of the kids did or what I had for dinner last night. Those things may be important to me and I may journal about them, but not here. This is my place for other thoughts. A place to explore certain topics, stretch my writing muscles.
Enough planning and plotting… off we go!
