Well blogger world, here I am. After months of my husbands persistance I have finally decided to start a blog of my own. I have always loved to delve into others blogs, and have found much inspiration, laughter, and delight in my daily readings.
As he watched me write bulk emails to family and friends during the weeks of my pregnancy, CR (my husband), would often say "JP, why don't you start a blog". My mother (who will also be referred to as Petey...I'll explain later) chimed in with similar suggestions. My nightly reading of one of my favorite blogs sparked yet another conversation last night. Again...Mr. Persistant asked the same damn question, "Honey, why don't you blog?" I traced my feelings of hesitance to a not so pleasant experience. While in college I lived with two females, one of whom remains my best friend to this day, and the other, who in a fit of anger ended our friendship on one note. That note was a blog entry.
I lay awake thinking about this situation and how if I were to start a blog, would I to be capable of possibly hurting someone I cared about. I will not dive into all the details, but to me it all boils down to discretion. This ex-friend had no filter when it came to expressing her inner most thoughts. I also thought about purpose. If I choose to write a blog, what is my purpose?
So here I am...exposed for all to read. In my writings I plan to share snippits from my everyday life; a life that consists of a wonderful husband (CR), a beautiful baby boy (CR2), two rediculous cats (Bobby and Mischa), and the thoughts that enter this head of mine. I am so excited to archive special memories for my little family, and at the same time keep those I love up to date. So dive in and enjoy if you will. I will try to keep it interesting, a maybe a little witty ;)
