Lost In a New Land

While I am often inspired to write about a great many things, tonight I seem to be overcome with learning all that I can about blogging. Did I mention I am new to this lol. I have spent the last two hours trying to determine how to search for blogs on specific topics and there seems to be no way to easily accomplish that. There is however a website that you can go to that will allow you to search for blogs by topic and that is www.Leafsy.com...awesome sight that I have started using for a great number of things. I am old school apparently and not as computer literate as I thought I was. I am however determined to remedy this and learn all that I can. Once I get this all figured out perhaps I can actually dig in to some interesting topics. I have learned that opinions are just that and don't really want to piss anyone off but as I have mentioned previously I am a bit strong opinioned about things so bear with me. I really do have a sense of fairness and will listen to other opinions. In the meantime I will continue to scout the land for signs of life and will pop in again tomorrow!

Midnight Writer

I have recently been told that I should start blogging. I fear this may be an attempt by my children and/or their spouses to get me to stop talking so much. They know that I like to write so it may just be that they are helping keep me busy. I have pretty defined opinions on things and tend to voice them when given the chance. I have been using facebook and talking to friends there but that really doesn't quench the need to write. I often find that writing is the only way I can communicate effectively how I feel about something. I am often at a loss for the words when spoken physically but if I can relay them to paper they always are understood. That doesn't mean they are appreciated any more but people will usually understand what I am saying. Do you ever find yourself writing things to you partner or significant other that you can't say to them? I am the worlds worst at doing this. I will get out of bed at 4 am just to "let myself be heard". It is true that if I write it down sometimes the need for it being read is gone, I just need to SAY it. Even if it is said on paper. My husband always hates getting these letters as they normally mean I am unhappy enough about something that it warranted a middle of the night typing session. So this blog will be my energy release spot for now, where I come to release all those pent up emotions and frustrations that negate good sleeping habits. Perhaps I should have called myself the Midnight Writer.
