“adventures in juggling”

http://adventuresinjuggling.wordpress.com

i blog first and foremost to have a record for my family of this amazing adventure that is their life. it also gives me an outlet in order to remind myself just how blessed we really are and to keep me from going insane. life is good here under the Big Top and i have proof of it in this blog of mine.

i started blogging December 2004.

whatever is on my mind on a daiy to day basis:
my amazing grand child
the headaches and good times living with a young adult child who left home and then came back
teenagers and all their messiness that is their hormone driven lives.
the life of a pre-teen straddling the worlds of childhood and adolescence and easy she makes it look.
the amazing life of my son as he enters into 1st grade and all the obstacles he has overcome and continues to try to get over, under around and through with his ongoing special medical and developmental needs.
supporting a husband in the midst of what has to be a midlife crisis and how i try not to go crazy with it all.
anything in the news and about my neck of the woods that amuses me, irritates me, stirs up my righteous indignation.

these are just a few of the blogs i regularly read…thank goodness for my google reader!

be yourself. don’t try to be be any other blogger out there. i found when i just wrote about whatever i wanted, when i wanted i found my voice and my audience. you will too.

sometimes. i know i sholuld more but i honestly do have a lot to juggle. my readers see maybe only 3-5% of my life and it is way busier than that.

oh yes they do. they also comment

on my laptop usually in my kitchen

i can’t write that down…my husband will then know!

way back in the day with aol journals

the aol version of john scalzi’s whatever. he no longer works for aol so it has since shut down

my life, my kids, my grand child, my husband. the world around me.

a web site for the travel business i co-own with my husband

i found my writing voice again. i used to write all the time as a kid but lost it along the way while growing up and figuring out who i am. i have learned that i am a lot wiser and stronger than i thought i was but i don’t always show it in real life. this exercise of mine inspires me to try to be stronger and wiser on the outside in my day to day life and interactions as i am on the inside.
