Readiness

To Blog, or not to blog. To whom am I posing the question?

Several months ago I decided that I was finished. My career as a blogger, D O N E. My goal of pushing myself to write, to explore new ideas, and thus sharpen the sticks in my brain, complete.

My first attempt at blogging was at a site named "gonenutstoday." One day, just like not so long ago, I decided I was done. I took a short break, and came back with a new address and new ideas, and located myself at "ainsleyway."

Well, with my last break, I really thought I was finished. That is to say, I wanted to be finished. Or, as I would phrase it to Trent, Mama is so tired and schweepy from all this writing! The only problem was that the thoughts kept dancing in my mind, and, if I don't write things down, they will be gone forever. I need to write the words, they paint the pictures that my mind would have forgotten.

So as exhausting and time consuming as blogging is, it is what I need to do to preserve memories and feelings. Re-reading my previous years of posts, I had so many memories come back to me. It was like looking through a photo album and remembering where each picture was taken.

So, although I put it out there, that this blogging thing, IS EXHAUSTING. I also need to remind myself of the joy and fun in it. To stretch my boundaries (just like in Chubby Bunny, if you don't know what that is LOOK IT UP) is worthwhile.

So here I go again.
