Desperation or Dedication?

Well I am starting a blog. I wanted to for some time now but was nervous about starting something else and then having it fall by the wayside as I have done with previous long-term projects. But I am obsessed with blogs, blogging and have been reading my favorite blogs faithfully for some time now, so I think I am qualified to start my own!!

When the kids are in bed and all is quiet, my personal excitement begins. I get on the computer and read about other womens lives and take my mind off of mine. What makes it even more exciting is that I can eat/enjoy Gharidelli dark chocolate carmel squares while I am reading (the best of both worlds)...
I like reading about the joys, sorrows, triumphs, comments, scriptures, of other women/moms/homeschoolers lives...its like I am a part of their life. I don't know them pesonally, but I feel like I know them because they share tidbits of their life with me.

I would like this blog to be like that. A place where I can share my musings of a life hidden in Christ (Col 3:3) and write daily, weekly, or monthly what the Lord is doing in my life and in the lives of my wonderful husband and children that He has so graciously blessed me with (and who graciously live with my antics...more on that later).
Yes, it may sound like I am desperate for friends by sharing all this on the www, and maybe I am because I just moved and don't have many....but I also want to keep in touch with friends and family and this is a way to do it. So without further ado...I will post my 1st blog entry and hope it won't be my last.
This was a lot easier than I thought for my halfway computer illiterate self. I love this....
Now who is going to read this....hello...is anyone out there...would you please be my friend and read this??
