I blog there for I am……

A long, long and long time ago I used this title on an old blog of mine on Xanga, in fact one girl liked it so well she about copy and pasted the whole thing and used it as her own. Maybe this is a self assurance blog today.
Trace and I were talking last night about the past and crazy times and he asked me why I closed the old Xanga sight. For the life of me I couldn’t give him a good explanation, he said he tells everyone to read it and gives out the link freely. “Thanks, that’s why I have a full mailbox every time I sign on” really, I don’t mind the e-mails.
Anyway, I plan on opening that bad boy up, page by page, it had over two years of blatherings, whines and woes but I saw so much growth in my life and the others around me.
This is, why I blog.
I have some particularly favorite posts on there, the shock of my Moms cancer, fights with Pops, meeting Amy, the battles with Beth, me being sick, the loss of Dee, the antics of Trace and Jacks, memories of Luke and me, his wedding, the birth of Kyle, Lori and her schemes and her men. The parties, oh my God the parties that were posted.
A lot of it was about the start of my business and watching it grow from cutting lawns to where I am now.
There was another online journal I did before Xanga but its long gone now, I wish I could have downloaded the whole series to keep. It was mostly about girls and how I felt about Beth and our dramas. Some people here know Beth personally and know the kind of trouble she can cause. I guess that’s the trouble with doing something on a web site that you don’t maintain. Maybe I should look into setting up my own domain name and carry everything over to that. Wouldn’t that be a treat? Hey, it would give Jacks a busy project! No, never mind he would “accidentally” delete a few juicy ones about him.
In my blog adventures I’ve made some really good friends and read some wonderful comments and visited some very interesting pages of others as well. Met some crazy stalker people, even one met me in a bar after reading my blog religiously; she felt she knew the whole family. Had people ask me for advice and asked for it as well.
For those of you that do read this, I thank you for the comments and letting others know of my site. It helps me to see different points of view when a comment or e-mail is thrown my way, besides it might help Trace in his quest to fill my mail box easier.
If you dare to jump back in time and want a few good laughs then here is the link to the old site.
