Slackers, Discipline, and Keeping Regular

Ok, so this blogging thing is really cool but as my daughter-in-law commented, it appears that I have a fake-out blog. Meaning I haven’t posted in awhile. It’s not that I don’t want to; it’s just that I sort of freak myself out about what I’m going to write.

I don’t guess entries need to be about anything profound and they don’t need to be perfectly crafted – they just need to be honest. So here’s your dose of honesty for today: I don’t have anything to write about! Really.

But at least I made an entry. So is this a fake-out blog? You decide!

Seriously, I’m discovering that this blogging thing is sort of a discipline. I’ve never been very good at writing things down, even though I like to write. Journal-keeping hasn’t ever been my thing, but I thought, “Hey, I’m online all day long so surely I’ll be able to blog regularly about all sorts of things: ideas, thoughts, rants, whatever!” Right. Maybe it’s just that I’m old – my kids find things to write about all the time. Or maybe I’m just a slacker.

So, to the 5 people who actually read this thing – hang in there… I’ll try to eat more fiber (ok, that was a lame attempt at humor about keeping regular… sorry!)

And don’t be afraid to post comments. They may actually force me into writing.

Who knows, maybe I’ll post more than once today. That would be something, wouldn’t it.
