Welcome (back!) to my blog, friends! I started blogging here back in 2005 and kept it up for about four or five years, until I finally stopped blogging. There were two major reasons I stopped blogging. First, it seemed that all of my blog posts took on a negative tone, and that's not the image that I wanted to project to the world. Second, I started the blog as a way to keep in touch with family and friends, and when everyone I knew was on facebook, it seemed redundant to keep a blog as well. (I suppose a third reason is that I also have a second knitting blog, that I have kept up to date with).
So, why am I back? I've decided there is more I want to share with the world than I can contain in a facebook status update or that I can confine to the themes of a knitting blog. A lot of what I want to share is semi-domestic stuff like cooking and crafts, so I toyed around with the idea of starting a dedicated crafting blog, but I ultimately decided that would be too much work. I don't want to feel like I have to do crafts because I need something to blog about. Conversely, I don't want to feel like I have to blog because I need to maintain my audience and build my SEO and all that crap. I just want a casual creative outlet that I can share with real life friends and blog-world friends alike.
And why did I delete the old posts? Trust me, that was so hard to do! There were some real gems in there! But I just decided that the past is the past and I wanted a clean slate. There is really no need for me or my readers to relive the misery of law school, right? Right. And I'll try to keep the misery of being a lawyer to a minimum. Don't want to clog up the new RSS feed with too much angst. :)
Au Revoir! (Until I see you again!)
