A New Leaf

I am an admitted blog stalker. I follow a number of blogs on a regular basis...if I have time, I check some every day. And I get annoyed when there are not regular updates. Chances are no one even checks in on mine anymore, after all my last post was almost 6 months ago! I've certainly thought about writing since September, but I never actually follow through. Sometimes it's because I'm busy. Sometimes it's because I don't really have much to say. And often, it has been because I don't think anyone reads it any ways. But recently I realized something...I don't care if no one reads it! Sure, seeing people's comments are nice. But I have always been a writer, it's something I love to do. When I was young (and had all the time in the world) I actually wrote for fun. Those were the days I used to have enough time to read for fun a lot too! So I've decided it's time to make a commitment, for myself, to blog more often. After all, I have an amazing daughter who gives me plenty of things to write about. Plus some times I need a place to vent or express myself. And who knows, maybe along the way I'll get some followers. If I do, I hope they find the kind of enjoyment and fulfillment I have out of the blogs I read regularly. I am making the promise right here, right now, there will be updates to this blog more often than once every 6 months. I think I may even try for more than once a month, but let's not push our luck too much yet!!
