I have to say I never knew this world of personal blogging sites existed until a few days ago. Yes, I seem to be more sheltered than I thought. I stumbled upon a blog site and thought that's just what I need, a place to vent and share some of my days happenings. Being a stay at home mom I really don't have that many conversations with the adults in the world. I have loved the decision my husband and I made eight years ago about being at home to raise our children - but I am all to aware that my days are probably coming to an end. My son is in 2nd grade and my daughter is in Kindergarten, which simply means they will both be in school full time next school year. I admit this scares me, although not to the point that I want to have another child for this luxury to continue. It's just that I've come to love the life that allows me to have my own schedule for everything. The thought of getting a "real" job makes me nauseous. I confess that, yes, I have days that I wish I did have a "real" job so that when people ask me what I've been up to I actually have something to say, something that sounds important. I don't think anyone really wants to know that house cleaning and laundry have been at the top of my work load this week. It's those moments I feel so worthless. Which I suppose is ridiculous because I know that my family appreciates all that I do. It just doesn't sound as glamorous.
Wow, listen to me. I'm already venting and sharing my thoughts on my very first blog. I'm not sure if I should be proud or erase this and start over.

Hopefully the First of Many

I am SO glad you have entered the blogging world! It really is a lot of fun. I look forward to hearing about what's going on in your life.
yay! another blogger. And vent, vent away. It's totally therapeutic and we all "get" it. I will enjoy reading your blog, I admire the way (and you listed it as your "interests") that you, Trevor, and co. enjoy life!
Vent with pride. It's very theraputic. The only thing that makes it better is a cup of coffee and some dark chocolate:-)
Hey! There you are. How fun to have another blogger enter this cyber world. Nice job.
Hi....sorry....feel like I'm eavesdropping on your conversation with your girlfriends...and am giving myself away....Anyway just wanted to pop in and encourage you. You're doing the most important job there is! I too am a SAHM. I feel like we belong to a dying breed. But we are forming the leaders of tomorrow! Not ranting!! Just wanting to be encouraging... by the looks of things on here... You're an AWESOME Mom!!
