Hello my friends.
I was driving around in my car today and realized that I have let myself down. For a long time I was blogging and writing every day on my other blog...and then I gradually started to only post when something traumatic happened or when I was feeling guilty for being such a no show.
I don't want to blog out of guilt. I used to write because it brought me joy and helped me feel connected to others who were dealing with the same issues I was. Those issues still exist for me...but somehow I lost my voice. I lost the will to deal with them and let myself down in the process.
No more.
I have not given up on my "Out of the Fog" blog. I just needed a clean slate.
I'm going to detail out my plan for this blog below.
Okay..so there isn't really a plan. Not a well thought one anyway. I intend to just go with the flow and see what words my hands start typing. I'm pretty sure that at some point I'll get back into the "Blog of Shame" posts that I loved to write before. Perhaps I'll be gentler in my approach now..but probably not..lol.
I am not sure whether it'd be prudent to write down my reunion story again...I'm sure those of you who followed along on my journey before are sick to death of hearing about it so maybe I'll just do a "Cliff Notes" version and have it on a separate page on this blog. It really is a fascinating story and I'm not just saying that because I lived it. ;)
Do I make up nicknames for the real life people in my life that I might blog about? The jury is still out on that as well. I hate using abbreviations and I am not clever enough to think up amusing nicknames that I won't get bored with after a week. Sigh. So many decisions.
For now, I'll just let the fact that I am beginning this new blog be enough of a start. Plans can come later.
