Been a LONG time!

Yes, it has been quite a long time since I blogged last. I seem to go in phases with my blogging, but have decided I need to begin again for many reasons.

1. I want to use my blogging as a way to journal. I have been told many times that I need to journal, but have always felt inhibited by it. Like if someone actually read my thoughts then they would know me for the truly crazy person I am. Although I consider myself a pretty open book kind of person, there are still things that I tend to and like to keep private about myself. I think it also goes back to the days of keeping a diary and someone finding it and reading your personal thoughts!

2. I have decided that I want to, in a sense, write about my life. Things I remember, things I cherish, funny stories, my loved ones who have now passed on. We live in a time where we rush and rush and can barely remember our own names half the time, that I want to document these memories to read later on or for future family members to read about.

3. I have debated for a long time, maybe not out loud, about writing a book. Yes much has happened in my life, some good some not so good, but I feel regardless if it sold or not what an achievement it would be to have it published. Now, having said that, I know nothing about writing a book. But, what's the worst that happens?! It stays in my blog form in all of its outrageous grammatical glory? :)

So, thus begins my journey. I did blog at one time on my myspace page, so those posts will be re-posted here when that time comes. Plus, you know how it goes, I may not remember things as clearly as I should and those were written in the thick of it all. Funny how the mind works!

Happy Blogging to me and Happy Reading to you!
