A Blog Post on Keeping Up with Blogging and Unicorn Diaries...

Ok so I'm a bit behind on blogging. I tend to overload myself with far too many things to keep up with on a daily basis... So that seems to be what is happening here, too many internet websites to keep up with. I started with Facebook, loved it. So then I got a Shutterfly account for my pictures and decided I needed a Shutterfly "Share Site" to share all my pictures with friends and family, loved it. And then lastly I decided to start this blog to share my HUGE wealth of knowledge with the world, and yes I love it! But it's a little hard to keep up with all of them. So as I've been focusing on the blog my Shutterfly site has been suffering, and of course while getting that back up to speed my blog has suffered... such a debacle, I guess I'll just have to do the best I can. I don't want to drop any of these sites because they all serve very different purposes, so I'll have to settle for semi regular blog posts.

I promise I wont let this turn into another one of the I dunno 50 diaries I started as a kid. I always had the best of intentions, start a diary to log all my deepest darkest secrets, a place to store all my dreams, desires, hopes for the future and a place to look back at everything that was happening to me at that point in my life. I would dive into this project writing every single day... for like 2 weeks... and then I would start to stress: what happens if someone finds this, I shouldn't write that in here, oh that's too hard to explain, I don't have enough time, etc. So slowly the diary would be left alone with no entries. Months would go by before I thought about it, and then I would decide it's time to start a diary again, maybe a pretty new shiny diary with a unicorn or something cheesy on the front will inspire me to take up writing again. Nope, a few weeks later the shiny new unicorn diary was right next to the old My Little Ponies diary that I gave up months before. So this is my promise to myself not to let that happen here. This blog isn't really a diary and no I wont be writing about my deepest darkest secrets. But it is a place for me to express my thoughts and feelings. A place for me to look back on years from now and remember what is was like to be 27, married, with no kids and only our animals depending on us. I like to think that looking back on this blog will remind me of many different facets of my past life. So even if I don't post everyday I promise to keep up with this blog, even if I'm the only one reading it. So move out of the way unicorn diary this time I really wont let this slip between the cracks!
