Where it all started.

This whole blogging thing is something that I have been wanting to do for a long time. I don't know why...maybe it's just that I'm a jump on the bandwagon type of person. Maybe it's because a couple of friends have been telling me I should (one who shall remain Sere even went so far as to open the account etc), maybe it's because Meg has one and I love reading the things she writes or maybe it's just as a way of keeping a record of things that I would never record otherwise. Who knows but here I am and finally doing it.

While I want to be real about my experience as a mother, wife and woman in this day and age I would rather be upbeat than negative. If I am slightly sarcastic it is not my intention to be offensive but rather my way of biting my tongue or making light of that which is sometimes upsetting or frustrating.

Anyway...it's probably just going to be me reading it or using it as my sounding board so it doesn't really matter anyway.
....or maybe it will be a way of saving the world! It's nice to dream big sometimes. I think being an at home mum is already a step in that direction personally but I am the first to admit that I am slightly bias (of course only about things that I am right about) and just a teeny tiny bit opinionated!

I have no idea how to jazz my page up, add photos or do all the little flash things that others do. I'm hoping that I will learn as I go. Common sense would tell me to ask those that know but as we learn from history..it would be far too easy to learn from the wise. Ask any new parent that has had their own parent give them some advice about their new baby, marriage, whatever. Eyes will be rolled and the most common reply will be "sure mum...that was in YOUR day, things have changed since then!" Of course we all know that they will probably end up doing things pretty much the same way that their parents did it but it takes a while to get to that.

So here's to my new journey as a blogging blogger.
Wish me luck.

  2. Hey there Meg! Thx so much for being my first post. That was very exciting to see. :-) I didn"t see the other one. Maybe it decided it was gonna go elsewhere. This blogging thing is fun but now that I'm doing it I'm having problems thinking of anything else to write. Please tell me that all blogging professionals have writers block? hehe
