Oh one of my old journalism school teachers write a column for my hometown newsapper. And she basically “outed” me. In a recent column, she mentioned my first name, maiden name and married name and that I have a blog. So now (based on my stats) the entire freaking county knows. Plus? My parents recently got the internet. My mom now reads mah blog. So uh… I won’t be sharing as much as I used to.

But an definitely looking forward to learning more about YOU chicky. 🙂

I am much more open on other people’s blogs….

isn’t that weird???

sort of …

I am open about all the stuff re: Matthew and how I feel about the crap w/ went thru …and my worries and fears over that….

but, my husband warns me to not get too political on my blog…

if I do … and I do sometimes….

I only leave it up for a couple weeks and then I delete it.

I get very upset over the things that are going on in this world, country, state and city.
But biggest “hot” button is illegal immigration. I can’t even get started w/o my blood boiling.
But we have been affected personally by it… so….
I am jaded.

I am just a regular girl that worries about our future and the future of my kids.

I do a lot of praying… a lot!!!

I’m calling you out. Someone said it’s surface-y and whatnot and then you wrapped that all up with a question.

Okay, so you peed on yerself and wax yer twat. We know you have the ability to be happily married should you not be covered in urine.

What else though?

I do think your blog reflects you in some ways. You’re not likely to tell someone you’ve just met everything about your life either. In many ways a blog is like a great big cocktail party, with people dropping by to say hi and chat for a minute.

It took me about 6 months to really say anything hard or admit my life wasn’t perfect. But now, my blog is like therapy in a way! But still, I censor a LOT. I don’t talk about certain parts of my marriage. I never talk about work or co-workers. And I never say any of the bad stuff about my parents. They read my blog and even though I’ve told them it’s read at your own risk, I know that would do some damage. So I choose not to hurt.

Personally, I’d love to hear about the experiences that have made you, you. You’re a complicated, intelligent, and incredibly warm and generous woman. What’s not interesting about that?

Yup. Don’t believe a word I write.

(For what it’s worth, though, I’ve found that many people are surprising when you get to know them; in that way, the fact that you “seem” vanilla but are then surprising makes you perfectly normal; then again, I would not classify you as “normal.” You’re just Mamma.)
