So - what's the skinny on my jumping ship??

Well - there are several reasons that I am leaving Facebook. The biggest one being I am just trying to prioritize in my life right now and its not fitting. It just takes up too much of my time and I'm neglecting other areas of my life. I wish I could just back off a little, take a short break, only get on Facebook on Thursdays (ANDREA!!!!) or some other such option - but unfortunately - I'm an all or nothing kind of gal.

I have tried to wean myself off of soda many times. I can't do it - it's cold turkey or fully IV'd turkey. I prefer the IV, but have to stick with cold. I cannot keep soda in the house - or I drink it. (And yes, I do have a six-pack of Pepsi sitting on my counter!).

It's the same with Facebook - if I don't delete it, I will be back. Not just once a week to catch up, not just once a day to see what everyone's doing. But every time I have a free "moment" and sit down...my moment turns into a few moments.

So, there you go. I just told on myself.

I hope to keep this blog updated as much as possible. I plan to include Tannerisms (of course!!) - and Lizzieisms and Hunterisms!

I have all of three people that SOMETIMES read this blog - hopefully with my shameless plugging on FB, some more will join the ranks!!

Blessings!!!

How Many Times Can One Change The Direction of Their Blog?

Ask me next year!

Well, many know that the kids are back in public school. It is working for now - tho', I admit that I'm already counting the days until they are home again. Already looking into 6th grade curriculum choices for Hunter...only a year and a half! Truly, tho', this is working for us for now. It may not be perfect, but we don't live in a perfect world...

I am planning to turn this blog BACK into a family/kids/school update blog! Hope to make it a journal, of sorts. Pics and stories - especially Tannerisms. (I really need to write a book about that kid!).

It may take me a few days (read: couple of weeks!), but hope to give the blog a whole new look!

Blessings!
