  • Welp.  I WAS doing good at updating!  I have to tell you - it is hard to get back into the habit of blogging regularly - I love it, but at the same time find it really difficult to begin thinking in blog-ese again.  You know - that sweet spot when you carry your camera around all the time in hopes to capture pieces of your day to capture and blog about - when you (or maybe its just me?) have a running dialogue in your head about how you are going to phrase the event or thing that just happened....when the blogging flows out of you like water and - well, you get what I am talking about.  Or maybe you don't and it is just me. 

    Regardless, I am not there again - YET.  No giving up here.  I am convinced that even if no one else reads this, I will appreciate the fact that I did it later in my life and I also hope that the more that I write, the better I will get at expressing the things that I want to say.  I have always wanted to write well.  I have always done well in school, but the writing that I have always done seems flat somehow.  My hope is that perhaps if I continue to dabble in writing, even if just in blog form, that perhaps I will learn to say things the way that I love to read them from other people.  Which sounds funny I realize, but I would love to be able to translate the FUNNY stuff that occurs on a daily basis in life and have it come across as funny.  Same thing for learning to express my heart - it feels that so often I dance around saying what is inside, and never can quite figure out how to express what is really there - the CORE of things, you know?

    See how wordy I am?  Sheesh.  If I could just pare that down and still communicate - I would be golden.

    Anyway - I do have more to say (haha - imagine that), but the 'to-do' list is long today and I have to be at work at 2 this afternoon.  More later.
