Finally, I feel ready to post again! As you can see I have made my blog all purrty now and am quite proud of how it turned out. It took me some time to come up with what I now have but it's feeling like blogging home!
To get some ideas for the design of my blog, I endlessly browsed other blogger blogs. Which leads me to the subject of this post: what the hell is going on in bloggerville?!
Now if you don't believe me, see for yourself. See that tab at the top that says "next blog"? Give it a click or ten. (Just come back to read mine). Did you observe what I observed? If so, you would have seen something like this: White all-American family with gorgeous professionally taken portrait, smiles abound and perfectly coordinated outfits. Next: white wife happily in love with her hubby and beautiful, perfect children writes about how fun it is to raise them. Next: maybe an art site or two, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, then back to all-American splendor. You get the picture. Where are all the REAL blogs? I have come across a few and I have subscribed to them in support of the guts to write about real life; not the fairytale that so many women get caught up in. I may have to put an "adult content" warning on this blog, but at least I know I am keeping it real. Don't get me wrong, the picture perfect blogs are beautiful. But I believe true beauty comes from the nitty-gritty truth of real life. After all. a flowering bush has to bloom and die a few times before it reaches its prime condition, doesn't it?
