So I have recently been inspired by some bloggers in my life. I have resisted the temptation to blog, mostly because I did not want the "blogger" epithet following me around. It sounds like an insult. "Hey you big blogger...why don't you go blog something?!" Either that, or a chronic disease. "You'll have to excuse me. My blog is flaring up again."
But I was catching up on my friend, Heidi's, blog. She had a list of other blogs she knew of. I was surprised to see my name on the list. Oh yeah...I started a blog. Once. Somewhere. Come to find out (by following her link) I had a total of one shining entry: March 5, 2007. I figured "Well, as long as I'm already a blogger, might as well blog something" I needed to start a new blog, though, because that other one was dumb.
Just in case any of your are wondering (or just in case anyone is actually reading this) I have decided to see how many times I can use the word blog in my....blog.
Current blog count: 11.
Then I decided to go check out some of my other favorite blogs: Dan and Liz's and Kara Brandt's. All the entries I read were so positive and uplifting. They seriously made me want to be a better person. I thought to myself, "I want to blog so that I can make someone out there in cyberland want to be a better person." It was then that I realized, "Wait a minute....a blog is only as positive and inspiring as the blogger."
Shoot.
Oh well....might as well finish what I started.
Heidi's blog is currently chronicling her son's thumb-sucking-weaning adventures. I think my blog is going to focus on my attempts at impatience-weaning. I have been so cranky and impatient with my poor kiddies lately. I'd like to blame it on pregnancy, but then what's my excuse for the other 6 months out of this year??
Dan and Liz have a list of all the books they are currently enjoying. Maybe I can blog the books I have thought about reading at one time in my life and would probably go far in making me inspiring and positive if I can ever get around to them.
Current blog count: 18
Alright....so I've got a few ideas as to paths this blog may take. Now I just need to get typing. Oh yeah...and I guess if I'm going to write about my impatience-weaning process, I should start working on my patience. Any bloggers out there have some good tips?
(I promise I didn't just insult you.)
