To blog or not to blog...that was my question.

I spend WAY too much time on the computer. Its not that I am "surfing the internet" or playing games but somehow between MOMS Club organization, bills, research on parenting, the occasional shopping, stuff for Primary, reading my three family websites, looking at friends' blogs, editing pictures and of course the endless email, I spend more time than I would like to on the computer. I had thought about creating my own blog but like I mentioned before, I have THREE family websites that I post stuff on (my parents their extended family, Dan's family and my grandma's extended family). But it seems like every week another friend tells me that they have a blog and that I should really start one too. But, I still was against it because I was about five months behind on my journal writing (which is also on the computer). If I was going to spend MORE time on the computer it really should be catching up and staying caught up on that. But then I had some time this week and, going all the way back to Christmas, I caught up. Hooray! Then I started thinking about a blog. I am justifying it with the hope that I will spend a few minutes every once in awhile posting my thoughts, and feelings and all the funny little things that happen when you are raising three kids. I am so horrible at keeping up in my journal that I dread it because I always have to catch up and never get around to writing about NOW. And when you are catching up you forget all the details...especially the feelings and the funny stories. So I decided "to blog" hoping that I will capture the real essence of life. So here goes...
