So I had said that my next installment was going to be about the name of the blog. I realized that I never really answered the question, that most of you know by now (because the blog is up and running) but you don't know HOW I came to the conclusion.
Many of you know that last year we station in Montgomery, AL where Josh went to and Air Force Command and Staff College. There he was brainwashed... umm hmm ....taught about all the cyber, voodoo stuff. He HATES Facebook and he hates even more that I am on it. With the new latest fears about third parties seeing your information no matter what your security settings are, I am fearful, my days are numbered.
So I was left with the question, how do I keep in contact with all my friends, literally all over the world? How can my husband also benefit while deployed or on a DET or where ever the Marine Corps might send him....because he for sure WONT be on Facebook. So I came to the question, to blog or not to blog? After being intimidated about starting...all that noise started in. Fear of rejection, fear that what I had to say was unintelligent or worse ignorant, or just criticism (mostly from my writer husband). Once I put the noise aside (and a lot of fear) I decided...lets see how hard it is just to make a page. I don't HAVE to publish it.
I found it incredible easy. For those out there wanting to start one, don't be intimidated by all the stuff. It is a lot of cut and paste. I would love to take total credit for my page but there was a lot of...well let's say...guidance.
Then I found my creative side, that often gets pushed aside with the daily chores and life, was stimulated and enjoyed creating something and sharing it. I stayed up way to late last night, that is why I never finished the HOW of my question. I was so excited that I couldn't fall asleep, which is not a good thing to do before a crazy busy day. A day when, not all meals were perfect, and some meals didn't really occur at all. Josh doesn't understand how I can forget to eat...I just do. Only in the morning. I will think I have then as I look back on my morning I realize that I never sat down and ate (which I normally eat standing up anyway). So breakfast at one, dinner at 5 and now.....ice cream???
