So...nine months? Has it really been that long? well in human anatomy that would mean it is about time to give birth to something new, eh?
I seldom posted out of sheer frustration. I was on dial up internet and it was maddening how slow it was. Living where we do our options were very limited... dial up or satellite.
Well, now as the family says, we have made it into the new millenium with satellite internet. It took a lot of research, feet dragging and just plain old wondering if we would regret it. I am happy to say that so far we have not!
I have been trying to catch up on all that I have been missing out on with other blogs, facebook, myspace, etc. This takes time. Time I do not always have. But today I chose to concentrate on two blogs I enjoy reading. That would be Linda and Dena. Two special people. Two great reads.
After reading their blogs I began to ponder this whole blog thing and why I had even thought I could be a part of it. I do not consider myself a writer although I used to think I would like to be one when I was MUCH younger. That was B.C. (before children). Children changed a good many things in my life and I would not go back for one minute. I love my girls and the life the Lord has given me with them.
Anyway...after reading Linda and Dena, I began to really think I am not a writer. So I googled "Blogging" to see if I might really have a place on here or not. Turns out I do. Anyone can.
blog
Definition (from http://www.marketingterms.com/dictionary/blog/)
A frequent, chronological publication of personal thoughts and Web links.
Information
A blog is often a mixture of what is happening in a person's life and what is happening on the Web, a kind of hybrid diary/guide site, although there are as many unique types of blogs as there are people.
People maintained blogs long before the term was coined, but the trend gained momentum with the introduction of automated published systems, most notably Blogger at blogger.com. Thousands of people use services such as Blogger to simplify and accelerate the publishing process.
Blogs are alternatively called web logs or weblogs. However, "blog" seems less likely to cause confusion, as "web log" can also mean a server's log files.
No one probably reads this anyway. Who wants to wait 9 months for a post? We wait 9 months for children to be born, we wait months for the release of a movie sequel, or a highly anticipated concert or CD release. Maybe that's the catch..."highly anticipated".
I'm thinking that does NOT fit me or my blog! :)
But I have decided that should I take the notion to toss out a few random musings to float over the cyber waves, I will.
Not really a diary, not really profound revelations, just ramblings.
That fits me.
