i write when i trout fish

It's no joke that I have been a total slacker in writing in my blog for a couple reasons.  One.  I am a mother now, of a boy who is on the run.  A boy who didn't believe in napping for nearly a year leaving me no time.  And a boy that once he sees any kind of electronic, he's on it wanting to push the buttons.  Two.  I write this blog for people to read it.  And they just don't.  There is very few who read it really- - 9 to be exact.  People forget the web address, they forget I even write a blog sometimes, which makes me think, hey, you don't want to read it... that's cool.  But then, I get others who say... you never update.  Or better yet, others who say I love your writing.  Then I ask, did you read my blog and they say yes.  And I say did you leave a comment?  Nope.  So, I get no positive reinforcement.  UNLESS you leave a comment.  When you leave a comment, good or bad, at least I know you know my thoughts.  Even if you are a smart ass... and leave the word "comment."  (I am looking at you Amanda!)  Do that, if you can't think of anything better to say. 

Either way, I know that writing is good for my soul.  It's what I like to do.  So, I know I should continue it.  Before I ditch the blog, I am making a last minute ditch effort by supplying my blog address one more time in our annual Christmas card.  It's sneaky, let me tell you.  And if forgetting is your excuse, did you know you can follow by email?  Located on the right side of the page is a FOLLOW BY EMAIL prompt.  Simply put your email in and you will receive an email if you wish each time I post something. 

So, take it or leave it.
