I have been blogging for over a year now. I started in October 2004 because I needed and outlet for me when we discovered my mother was diagnosed with stage 4 lung cancer. Before that, my husband and I were facing the troubles of a house fire and having to live with a baby under the age of 1 in a small hotel room for a long period of time. So you can say that I really needed an outlet.
I was instantly addicted to blogging. I was able to talk about all of my feelings. Feelings of the moment or things that were deep down, they all seemed to find a way onto the page. It has been very therapeutic and I felt that the most helpful part was that I knew there was at least one person reading and I can tell that person anything.
It was about time that I made something that was public. I plan on telling stories, talking about my life of memories and experiences. I am married to a wonderful tech geek who has his own blog writing about all things technical. Go figure. We have a 21 month old son and I have to admit that we are not done with our family. We have 2 cats and we just adopted my mothers’ cat who seems to be trying to rule the house. Before I became a mom, I was a graphic designer with a pretty well known magazine and I honestly do not miss it one bit. I have the toughest, yet most rewarding job there is and it pays crap.
You can say that I am just another run of the mill housewife, but I am willing to put it down on paper, or in a blog. My writing cannot compare to some other blogs I have been reading, but I will be trying my hardest to keep it interesting.
Keep your eyes open for many changes to the site in the near future. I am just learning how to do all of this. My in house geek is going to help me learn what I am doing.
