Sassy Mama: Oops...I've fallen asleep at the blogger-wheel
And judging from my counter, millions (insert sarcasm here) are wondering where I'm at. Okay...more like, maybe, 30 people are wondering where I'm at.
But I think I like it that way. I'm a regular reader of some of the more popular blogs and I've noticed that if the blogger actually tries to have a life (lest he or she will run out of blogging material) and leaves the blog for, say, three or four days, their inbox lights up with tons of fans wanting the next installment. And whereas I'm sure that is flattering (I'm guessing here....) I can also see how that is smothering. Personally, I'd freak out.
In other news:
I haven't run away yet...from any of my "jobs": mother, wife, maid, lackluster cook, and most recently an actual part-time paying job. In fact, I'm enjoying my outside employment more than I thought I would. Which is nice...but strange. I usually start jobs and about two weeks into it I start asking myself, "What was I thinking? This is awful." So far, so good....which is GOOD.
Now, I'm aware that I live under a rock (actually, my rock is my four kids) so I'm not hip to pop culture as much as others are. So keep this in mind while I spout off at how great I think this "new" (meaning: new to me) website, www.43things.com is. It is so neat to participate in. If you are a fellow under-rock dweller, you might not know what this is. 43 Things is a website where you can list your goals in life. You either type your goal in or click on one that interests it and then click a button to add it to your list. I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE it. Maybe too much so because, although I'm only at 29 things, I have a feeling that I'm going to go over 43 things. In fact, what does happen if I go over 43 things? Hmmmmm.....gotta find that out. Anyway, you can also list places you want to go. When you add a goal, it shows you others (if there are others) with the same goal and their comments (if they left any). And quite possibly there will be others who have accomplished this goal that leave comments on whether it's worth doing or not. Which is another neat perk for YOU. Say you've quit smoking (guess you can tell what's on my mind), you type in "quit smoking" and it will take you to the page where others have left comments. If you want to, you can click on the "I've Done This!" button and a new page opens and it says, "Congratulations, you've done__________!" and it gives you the option of whether to rate it (Worth Doing or Not Worth Doing) and/or comments.
Tired now and am finding that I ramble-type when tired.
More later...sleep soon.
