I have a lot of back blogging to do. Every time I sit down to type I get over whelmed by everything that I wish I had written about, or want to write about. Blogging shouldn't be stressful. I'm not saying that I am stressed out by it, I'm just saying it is one of the many things on my many to do lists that is still undone.
Then I wonder to myself (and I guess now publicly on here) why am I even blogging anyway. I have shied more and more away from FB recently because to be honest I feel like all anyone ever does is a. complain about others or whoa is me, b. what they post about Satan tries to use to make me (or you) feel bad about how I (or you) parent/do life, etc. or c. just posting things to get likes or responses from people.
Which led me to ponder my original question - why am I blogging? Is it to vent or complain about things that don't go "my" way? Is it to say yay me look how good I am or how good my family is at this or that? Is it to hear peoples comments on how well I made this or wow that looks great! No, my hope is that I can look back on this little ole blog and the blogs that came before and see our growth as a family. Are comments great? Yes, I would love comments because I don't know what I am doing half the time and any encouragement or ideas would be great. However, maybe (and I know I have gone round and round with this before) I should just make the blog private again. Therefore it really would be just for me. Then I could be totally honest without worry of hurting feelings when I complain/vent about how things make me feel. Hmmm...All good thoughts to ponder.
So I guess for now, stay tuned for all the back blogging that I see in my future...How I Spent My Summer Vacation parts 2,3, and 4, Last Days of Summer, School Days, etc.
I love reading all of the Memphis blogs to see what everyone is up to as well as get good parenting tips, recipes, crafts, etc! Can't wait to read about the rest of your summer : )
