random ramblings....

so, i've been pondering.
pondering .
i love that word.
i've been pondering/over analyzing my blog.
i realized this morning that i, at times, have a fear (stupid, i know) of blogging.
i used to be obsessed with it.
now, not so much.
really, how many people really care about whether or not my children grow out of their old shoes.
well, besides my sister of course.
she must care.
it's her job.
so, i ask....what do you want to know more about?
why do i blog?
for my kids to someday look back on?
yuppers.
did i start it for my sister, who lives MUCH too far away?
yuppers.
do i do it to avoid domesticated tasks that loom above me???
most definitely.
i'm a self admitted blog stalker.
there are certain bloggers that can make me laugh out loud.
certain ones that i'm close to deleting of 'my favs' because...
well, just because.
it's my prerogative.
and really, who reads this?
is it really that hard to leave me a comment?? :)
just so i know that you're out there.
talk to me.
example: if your interest is with my kids, i'll write more about them. (it's my favorite thing to blog about!)
is your interest in the newest, latest cleaning products.
i'll blog about that. ?
how about what's hot in fashion?
i can research.
what about gardening?
i garden.
is your interest in cooking?
um, ya, go somewhere else.
so, my point being....
i'm out of good blogging material.
when that happens, i'm better off to stay away-
for fear of being deleted from 'your favs'.
if you've deleted me, don't tell me.
i couldn't handle the rejection.
really, i don't do well with that.
just saying.
talk to me people.
i'll listen.
maybe.

Aww, Traci, you'll NEVER be deleted from my fave list! You can blog about ANYTHING and I'll read it and love it :)

Janice said...

ouch - hope your not deleting me?!?! I know what you mean tho', after blogging about Nathan's accident,etc., everything else seems soooooo trivial! But, part of me can't wait to get back to blogging the trivial. I want to see more of your house, projects, yes - cooking, I love when you write random thoughts about your passions - including the Lord. All this to say - just keep on keeping on girlfriend - you'll stay on my list!!1 :-)

Don't stop!! I like hearing about your life...I like it that I can keep up with my dear fambly in blog land...

Blogging is about sharing life...and in our run-around world sometimes this is the best place to get it done...

3 days ago i wrote a post called 'why i blog'. are you psycho? i mean psychic? (i'm saving it for one of those days that i have NOTHING to say, when my mind is kaputz)

i just turned on my blogger to see if you still HAD a blog. don't be a blog slacker EVER AGAIN! i can't take it. it's my life, my breath, my joy. so keep blogging sister (besides, there are so many people out there who like you and think you're funny ;)

talk about anything and everything~especially my nephews and niece and parents. i love them! i love you!

Becky said...

yes, yes, yes, you must keep blogging. whether you take a month long hiatus or do it daily, it doesn't matter, we all like to hear your thoughts on life and what's going on over at the likkel home.

i'm pretty sure i'm on your fav list to delete...in fact, i'm sure i'm at top of the list!!
oh well. blogging's not for everyone! but it's definitely your thing, sweet girl. keep on blogging, sister!!! :)

I read your blog, (have a hard time keeping up with my own though)! Yup, blog for the kids, one day they will look back and it will be their record of life in "these times", their link to you and your thoughts and how much you loved their dad and adored them. Blog about daily life, what you love, what you don't, and for that fact, I love to know the latest greatest cleaning products (the magic eraser will always be my fav)!

Ross and Taya said...

You are on my blog stalker list and totally one of my favs. Keep doing it! Just do it when you feel like it so you don't feel obligated. But don't stop because I will read whatever you write about!

Gotta keep it up...about WHATEVER you want...I love to read anything....even though I talk to you nearly daily....it's still one of my favorite things to do....read about your wonderful/blessed/chaotic/never boring life!

tammy said...

are you kidding dear friend. If you only knew how many times you have made me laugh, cry, praise God, admire, relate, appreciate and so on. I love to hear about your kids, your precious family, toughts of your grandma, the lates painted item & all your precious thoughts. You have a gift of writing & I love to read it. However...don't ever feel obligated to do it...just do it for fun and when you feel like it. I hope you have not deleted me yet?? Love you so much! Okay, off to bed. I am embarrased of the time...working on teacher gifts...off to bed.
