The Real Me

I used to blog freely, about whatever was on my heart at the time. I got away from that. I guess I felt I had to censor what I was writing about. Either to spare someone's feelings or to avoid confrontation. I will be getting back to blogging like I used to. I am not college educated but life has taught me many lessons. I have hopes and dreams and I also have skeletons in the closet, we all do! what is my scariest skeleton? hmm, I would have to say cleaning house. I hate it, despise it, have better things to do. LOL But....I am breaking that cycle. I am slowly getting into a routine of sorts. I tackle things one at a time and do not let myself become overwhelmed.
I used to say I didn't have time to clean, I am busy living life. I think that was just an excuse. But let me tell you, having a disorderly mess really brings your mood down. Since I have been tackling these cleaning, I feel better about myself. I have even slipped in a little decorating.
Enough about that.
It has taken me a long time to learn who I really am inside and I can honestly say I really like who I am now. I guess thats why I put in the about me section, I am quite fantastic. Not to brag about myself, but to remind myself I am not such a bad person. so look forward to me writing more from the heart. Go easy on me, I am quite sensitive.

When no one was really reading my blog I think I was more free in what I would say. I have gone back to that lately because of hormones. They don't let me hold much in! I also hate to clean house. I have every excuse known to man!

You are the best-blog from the heart when you want to.

We are on similar journeys on the blogging thing. I have recently been thinking that I should just blog about what is on my heart or mind. I don't want to limit my articles to one particular topic, such as domestic violence, anymore. I really want to start posting my thoughts on things. I guess I've just been afraid that some will get angry, others might laugh...whatever. I need to get beyond the fear and just post.

My biggest fear in life is 'not living it'

Just buy a leaf blower, it dusts and moves other things around pretty well

I HATE any kind of house cleaning--I even send my socks to the cleaners!!

I haven't censored myself on blogging from day 1---no one here pays my bills nor am I dependent on anyone here--they don't like what I say or how I say it they can stay away.

I don't purposely hurt anyone but if I feel someone is trying to hurt me or someone else I will certainly say something!

High School was extended baby-sitting for us. College was boot camp, and the Army (for me) was advanced training. The rest of your life is a Universe of learning. You don't need college to experience that Universe. Go to your library as much as you can and take books home. If you want a reading list I can supply one. When you've done this for four or five years, I will print and send you your degree! I'm not kidding.

I know some people really don't like confrontation but sometimes it's inevitable. I'm not saying you should be confrontational just to be confrontational, but it never pays to hide yourself behind fears of consequences or only say what you know will win approval. When you do that, you're not showing who or what you really are but rather who and what you fear. Since you're "quite fantastic," there's nobody or nothing to fear.

PS: It's never too late to go to college, even if you only want to take a few courses.

You are what you are or I am what I am.
We love you here honeybuggs.

I've always liked you for who ya are. Nobody's perfect ('cept me of course har har). I've always found your writings inteligent, amusing and thougth provoking. And lemme tell ya, college is overrated. I had four years of it and you can see what little good it did me. And yer right about cleaning. I can do wonders for the soul even though its sometimes hard to get started. I'm in the process of doing some cleaning myself.

reguards
yer faithful pal

I have liked you for you all along!
I look forward to learning more - uncensored!

Funny how cleaning and decorating go hand in hand. When I've cleaned the living room I want to put a vase of fresh flowers on the coffee table. When I clean the dining room I want to make some cushions for the chairs.
