Standing on the Edge of a Brand New Year

I have longed to write for awhile now. But I also have this problem with semi-perfectionism, I felt like I couldn't write unless my blog was perfectly perfect. It had to have the right pictures and colors, etc, etc! I couldn't figure out how to do it though. So I would spend hours trying to set the perfect template and size and re-size pictures and the next thing ya know, I had no time to actually write. So I said, the heck with this, I will just start a whole new blog! Don't expect to come here for thrills, frills and fancy settings. You are not going to get them. My grammar may suck at times, and oh yeah, I may use a bad word or two. If I can eventually figure it out, you may see a nice background and pics of my kids. But I am not going all OCD about whether or not my blog has a flowery border. Take me or leave me. I can promise you this, I will be interesting for the most part. I will be real. Most of what I write will be real, because when you have a husband, 9 kids, a son in law, 2 grandkids, 3 cats, one turtle and bats in your attic, you don't need to make stuff up. It just comes naturally! Ok, so fasten your seatbelts and get ready for a great ride in 2014 on my blog! You may want to start drinking wine. Or vodka and cranberry. Or share your favorite cocktails with me. Just get ready. Hoping to make you laugh, and cry, and rethink some things in life. Isn't that what writers are supposed to do? Well come with me while I hone my craft. My family is full of artistic types in music and acting. As for me, I have always fancied myself a writer and time will tell if you agree with me. Either which way, we shall have fun my friend. Now go enjoy your New Year's Eve. Dream your dreams, plan your plans, and get excited for the new year! Anything is possible. Especially with God!
