WHAT TO DO WITH A BLOG?
I am messing around with my blog again. I don't really know what I want from it. I don't know how to use the varriables to modify anything. Grrrr. I like to post pictures and to write. I really enjoy the comments and making friends. There is another blog site that I like a lot but I don't want to change over to it. I want to post boring stuff and fun things but my biggest problem is with keeping anything in my head while chasing kiddos
Today is a really rough day. My baby nephew, who I care for Monday - Friday was sick for over a week, now my oldest is pale, puny, and queasy. I had really hoped to get them outdoors and have some fun this weekend. We are having some record temperatures here. I have a small A/C unit going now but we were roasting last night while it began its work! My little one is now completely weaned, and 17 months old today. She is a real darling like her big sis. I am thrilled with one silly thing, my husband bought more teaspoons for me, I had only four...I don't know where they got to! I am suspicious that someone little enjoyed tossing them into the trash! Now I have twelve more to lose. LOL kids. One of my friends who got me started blogging, had deleted her page because someone was VERY unkind to her. I loved reading her posts and seeing her kids grow. She has decided to start over again. Why are people mean? I think it is lots easier to be cruel online but either way I am glad that she is starting up again. I have another friend who blogs but she does it without letting anone know where she is. I like that idea too. I think that homeschool blogger is nice though, it is simple and christian. No racy content thankfully. Well that is all my easily distracted self can think to write right now.

I will think of something, maybe some sort of soap box issue, or something funny that happened, and then I am too busy or tired to blog, and then I forget. I did find a list while cleaning that had blogs titles I had wrote on it, to jog my memory. But, alas, it was too long ago, and I don't remember! lol

Trevin is 11. His dad started going to church earlier this year and has changed so much. God showed me that HE was taking care of things and that Trevin belongs to HIM and to trust HIM with this. I know that God is in control and I am happy that Trevin's dad has found the Lord. Thanks so much!!! I appreciat it very much.

Jun. 10, 2008 - This blog or that blog
Posted by thornfaith
I have this blog on a homeschool for homeschool fellowship and to write 'letters' to friends and family. I have another blog www.thornfaith.blogspot.com for me. On the blogspot one I post stuff about my walk with God...inspirational only kind of stuff. But in a funny, whitey sort of way. I will probably post the same stuff from time to time on both but for now I felt the need to separate the two due to the fact that this blog is suppose to be 'what my family is up to' letter to my friends and family.
I would like to suggest telling people stuff like you use to, like your flat guy and tour of NY. Or your pictures you drew, or funny stuff your kids did, or a great church teaching. Etc. Be inspirational and honest at the same time. Say something like "today I ran 4 miles yah right...more like I thought about it in my head"...Then at the end of that post write "well I am off to for realz do that workout...I know I chase the kids." This way you make people see your weak like them, and yet you inspire them to get up and workout too.
I get criticized all the time! Especially by homeschoolers! Did you read my post on Halloween? I got tons of flak for that! People are just being themselves, you be you. You seem so sweet but you beat yourself up! Stop it and learn to show people that shine in you, that part of you that needs to say THIS IS ME, THIS IS HOW I SERVE GOD!
Your blog will grow only when you shine...so shine on I know you can, I have seen some of your great blogs.
