i blog. . .therefore i am. . .

inspired by this post from the amazing CecilyK . . .and a tweet from this thought-provoking dad that I am getting to know via twitter. . .i started thinking about my own blog and why i'm here. . .

i missed my 5 year blogiversary - that was in July - the 16th.  so i've been at this for 5 years. . .

prattling on about my life and my opinions . . . living my life out loud (the term I am fond of using to describe what i do)  writing as if my little ol blog gets 100 hits a day. . .far, far, far from the actual # of hits.

but is 100 hits/day why I'm here?

to get "discovered"? (does that even happen in real life?)

what? why? hmmmmm. . .

since being laid off I've considered trying to turn my blog into a business - but it isn't a business - it's my life - in words and pictures

maybe that's why I'm having such a hard time with the "branding" and "niche" and all those corporate-esque words. . .maybe I should just blog. . .and enjoy it. . .and maybe start an etsy shop for my crafting. . .

maybe. . .what do you think?

catch you soon -
