What to do? What to do?

So, generally I don’t really think much about blogging because I think “who wants to read about my boring life?”  I mean, I go to work (boring),  come home and do laundry (or dishes, or, on a rare occasion, cook dinner  - all boring), and we all do 5^th grade homework (which is torcherously boring) and then plop on the couch for some “down time” before I give up and just go to bed at 9:30… I mean totally lame, right?! 

(p.s.  “downtime” is probably the most stimulation my brain gets all day since it consists of a multitasking Triathelon of pinterest, facebook and whatever funny tv shows I can find.)

But I actually do have several legitimate thoughts through out the day.  I mean I have really great people around me that help me stay on my toes.  And I have some great girls that I do a Bible/book study with.  So I mean,  I am a human with thoughts, opinions, and emotions.

  

If you ask my husband, I bet he’d say I even have a heapin’ helpin’ of the emotions part!  And now that I think about it, he’d probably say that about the opinions too! 

But seriously, I’m not a laundry, homework, dishes, cleaning robot.  Really… I’m not (just come by the house – you’ll see!)

So, I’ve been trying to figure out how to best utilize my blog.  I mean I’ve never really put it to good use and now that I have a family, I feel like I have a great way to archive or memories, right?!  But who wants to remember the tears during homework time (I’m talking EVERY NIGHT people) or the laundry….  Snoozeville.  Nobody cares!  Especially not me.  And let’s face it, we are broke, so we don’t have any major adventures!  Our weekends are pretty tame –the midget is usually not even here, so the hubbers and I veg-out on the weekends and our biggest event is a trip to the grocery store (yipee).

Don’t get me wrong – I’m not complaining!  Life is good here for the most part (especially considering what our first year of marriage has been like), and I enjoy my family very much (most of the time).  But is our life blog worthy material?  

No, I don’t think so. 

I follow quite a few blogs that have certain themes  each day (for example Monday Mind Dumps from The Housewife Rookie and Wordless Wednesdays from Thoughts from a Mary Heart).  I could do that, but I’m such an unorganized mess most of the time that I’d be blogging Mondays on Thursdays and Wednesdays on Mondays.  What a stress NON reliever!!  I’m getting anxious just thinking  about it!!!  

(Breath, Goltz.  Just Breath)

I would love for my life to be all put together so nice in a little blog worthy package (which is what I feel like other people’s lives are like) but at the same time my “rebellious” side physically rejects that and I end up sabotaging myself.

I get bored – what can I say?!

And truthfully I KNOW that other people don’t always live like that – they are just more creative at only showing the fun parts of their lives.
(which I’m not knocking – I just don’t have that gift)

So, what exactly am I babbling on about, anyway?  

Who really knows for sure!!  I guess I’m just venting/appologizing for not keeping this up, while at the same time explaining why I don’t.

Maybe  I’m just thinking out loud.

I mean this is a great space to vent, explore, learn, teach, and whatever else so I don’t want to give up on it.  I’m just not exactly sure how it fits in my life... yet.

Today, I have purged thoughts and explained my issues.  Maybe Mondays will be that kind of day – I’ll have to come up with a cutsie little name for it, but maybe that’s what it will be for.  I’m gonna have to break out my thesaurus to figure out cute little names for the days.
(who am I kidding?   I don’t own a thesaurus)

Ok, well that’s it for today (THANK GOD!!!  - I can hear you saying that right now and it’s ok – I feel your pain).

I guess we will just have to see what TOMORROW brings...
