Well, I've done it. I can't believe it actually, but it's true! I've started my own blog. I've been debating taking this step for a while now, but the obstacles just seemed too great. How do I start one? What do I name it? Who would ever even read it? And probably the biggest question- what do I write about? I don't lead a life full of adventure and intrigue; would anyone really care to hear about it?
Then I began to realize that some of the blogs I enjoy reading the most are ones that just feel real. I can relate to those people in some way, and that's why it makes for an enjoyable read.
Lately I've been carefully broaching the subject of blogs with my husband, the Firefighter. The first few times I mentioned that I'd read this or that on someone's blog, he kind of smiled and said "m-hmm", and went back to whatever he was doing. However, as he began to hear more frequently about what happened in the lives of people that I've read about, some people I know, some I don't, he began to look at me a little sideways as I recounted all that I'd learned. "How has she gotten so interested in the land of blog? Who is this woman that can't wait to read about these strangers' adventures?" And THEN came those words. Those words I never thought I'd hear. Those words that came as we were ending our day, waiting for that blanket of sleep to cover us. "Why don't you start your own blog?"
And here I am.
