Spontaneous Blogging

 

I’m mad at Facebook.  I like to share short updates and funny things my kids do on my facebook page, but Facebook has changed the way they do things (again) and so few people see it!

And I’m too much of a perfectionist with my writing here on the blog, which means that from the time I draft a blog post to the time it’s published could be anywhere from several days to several weeks.

I want you guys to know me.  I want you to know my personality, know what makes me tick, and know all my crazy thoughts.  But if Facebook isn’t going to make that happen anymore, then I need to start blogging more spontaneously and less “perfectly.”

So this is it.  My first spontaneous blog post.  On a Tuesday afternoon, on my couch, in my slippers, 20 minutes before my 5 year old gets off the bus.  No editing.  No pinterest-worthy picture, no earth-shattering topic.  Just a few quick thoughts.

    1. Thanks, Nicole. I actually went so far as to take the Facebook shortcut off my phone. I didn't uninstall it, but it's not right there in front anymore!

  2. He's adorable! Facebook is frustrating. It's like a game about how to outsmart their weird attempts to not share our posts.
