Me, Again
ok. so i know i have already blogged today, but please forgive me because I have been stuck in the house with a sick family for literally 2 weeks. I think I feel the need to "chat", but don't really want to pick up the phone and talk. Maybe because I don't want someone to "have to" listen. I've been thinking a lot about blogging and what it means to me and what I need to use it for and not use it for. Do you ever find yourself reading someones blog that you don't even know? I do. And why does it draw my attention? I think it's interesting to see what other families are like. I like to see how cute their kid's are dressed. I like to look at "the Nester's" site just to see what her house looks like. I always want to know how she has the time to do what she does. I must say that I am a little envious. I feel like every picture I ever see on her website is perfect. There is never anything out of place. Where does she find the time to clean house, decorate, take care of kids, cook and run all of her blogs. I'm not doubting she can do it. I just want to know how I can do it? It was all I could do today to swap out the curtains in two rooms and here she is swapping out curtains, pictures, tables, chairs, etc. A whole stinkin' room is swapped for crying out loud. How does she do it? Is she the only one who can do this and still stay organized or am I just so unorganized that I am the only one who can't keep it together. It is my dream to have an organized life. Will it ever happen? Who knows...I guess I'll just have to keep trying!!

Hello Seamstress. This is from (Bookish, Writer Want To Be, Older Mom) I have never had to come up with an online "name" before. So I think I will go with Writer Want to BE (WWTB) aka Denise Haynes from MOPS. I had just written a long message to you and then realized I had to set up an account. Then I lost everything that I had written. WOW, talk about having nothing to say now. I just said it all earlier. But anyway, let me go on. I was so thrilled to see that you blog. Who knew that we have a writer amongst us?! Thank you for allowing me to join your discussion. I often say up late at night and talk to myself. I teach online for four schools (crazy...I know) and find myself going to bed with a lot on my mind. I tend to come up with stories in my head and parts to stories. So that is why I think I am a Writer Want To Be. This has only started since I had my daugher three years ago. I think that God is trying to show me something, or probably teach me something. I think that everyone has a story that God has planted in them and it needs to be told. I heard someone say that everyone has a book in them, it just they have to have the discipline to do it. Well, I won't go on and on about that. But I want to say that I like your blog and the picture of your family on the beach. I hope I can "vent" often. Have a great night! WWTB
thanks for the comment...i'm sure you'll find it no surprise that i actually have started a book (about being a special needs mom), i just haven't worked on it in a while. will it ever be finished? that is yet to be determined. maybe one day when i have time...
Hi Seamstress, I knew it was true!!! Another writer amongst us. As I said, God wants all of us to write a story. I know it may take awhile to finish your book, but you will. Many people need to hear it.
I see that you are a seamstress. I once was a seamstress before I married and before children. My mother was a wonderful seamstress and I learned from watching her. My mother made most all of my dresses growing up and they were all "girly". I actually bought some material in the Fall to make my daughter a dress. It came from the Patsy Aiken outlet and it is beautiful material with lace and ribbon. I hope to dust off my sewing machine and work on it soon.
Have a great day!
WWTB
