Today is November 1st and according to the rest
of my writing family (my daughter specifically) it is the first day of Nano
Rhymo (or at least that is what I think she calls it). This apparently has
something to do with challenging yourself to having a set number of words to
write in a book each day with the goal of being finished with it at the end of
the month and ready for editing… That doesn’t sound like a lot of fun to me. I’m
not really a writer. (Wait! I have a blog! Does that mean I am a writer???) I
guess that’s where the practicing comes in.
My life has been a series of attempts to be more involved,
more organized, more focused, more anything really… As a form of a mid-life
crisis I have realized that no real growth can happen without a certain amount
of risk. I am an ISFJ. I don’t know if any of you are familiar with
Meyers-Briggs but that makes me a homebody. Really, I am happiest in my safe
little bubble not letting most people know what my truest inner thoughts are.
This is WAY outside my safe little bubble! I might express a true opinion that
might offend someone… A huge part of my thought process is to measure my opinions
against others so I don’t offend anyone… In other words I don’t share controversial
opinions.
There is a phrase about everyone’s possession of opinions
and I think it is a pretty accurate assessment in some cases. So I won’t be
sharing anything controversial here. Just awesome adventures with the family, cool
things that happen on the farm, other credited ideas I think are neat, possibly
some home made products in the future, but for now… Just me finding a way to
step out into my own personal twilight zone.
Hey K! Does just over 300 words for today get me started?

DeleteGood evening Karen,
DeleteThank you for seeking out my blog and wishing to subscribe to it! Having a spouse who has "been there, done that" makes marketing it a little easier. :-)
I found the subscription widget after searching for a suggestion online. Blogger is a little complex in it's setup and I did not realize this was an option and not automatically included. Thank you for bringing it to my attention so I could get it added! :-) Have a great evening!
