I Took the Plunge!

     Well, after months of toying with the idea, I have finally taken the plunge and started my own blog. My initial thoughts about blogging were not positive, after all, what would I blog about? And who would read it?! "I unclogged the toilet for the third time this week"and "Logan is out in the yard in his underwear again" hardly seemed like interesting blog type material! But despite the raw materials I have to work with, Nate said I would do a great job as a blogger, and other well meaning, but possibly misguided family members, also said I should give it a shot. So I thought, why not?When I announced to my husband that I had decided to start my own blog, he looked at me incredulously and said " A blog? that's dumb!" What?! he is the one who said I would be so good at blogging wasn't he? I reminded him of his prior comments about me blogging and he informed me that if we lived in the country a blog would be interesting! Really? I fail to see how my life was any more interesting living in the country than it is now, except we had seven cats and spent our entire lives in our van, which just happened to always be filthy from the gravel road we had to travel.  So just to be the obnoxious I'll-show-him kind of wife that I can sometimes be, I have to prove our lives are equally interesting and comparable to "country folk". So, here goes! Fasten your seat belts, it could be a bumpy ride...
And yes, I really did unclog the toilet three times this week...!
