I see two schools of thought when it comes to blogging. The day to day chat of daily life, or the thought-provoking posts meant to inspire. It is too difficult to post the thought-provoking kind all the time, although some people seem to be able to produce that sort of thing in the daily life post. I blog mainly because I want to.
I want to chronicle my life and if thought provoking pops out, so be it.
Actually, I like to read about daily lives. It's interesting how other people life and what they do.
I said in mu last post that I wouldn't be writing any more cancer posts. That doesn't mean I won't ever mention it again. Cancer has been and the results are a part of my life. My life, my way of life has been changed forever and my posts will reflect that. But, it doesn't dominate my life and my way of thinking anymore. It's still up there in my thinking, but not dominating.
Here I get ready to talk about ordinary life, and I can't remember much of what happened in March. Since when is life to go so fast when you are ill? I went to the theater booster meeting and volunteered for treasurer and the scholarship committee. This is the first meeting I've been to all year. I've been grocery shopping by myself. I bought bunch of new yarn and finished a couple of afghans. I have m tax stuff in to the accountant. I've washed loads of clothes, cleaned house, knitted crocheted, read, cooked, done office work for Jim, fed the cats and kept the fire buring. Oh, and dishes, too. I've not hounded my daughter enough to practice the piano. We've been out to eat, had mother/daughter shopping and eating, in short, just normal stuff and I'm enjoying it. (Well, maybe not the laundry and dishes.) No wonder the time goes fast.
Here are a few pictures of things in March.
Lynette and I were busy in the kitchen

I like regular programming of ordinary days. Your pie looks wonderful. If you lived closer I would come have a piece.!

Ordinary, normal...it's my favorite way of life...! Lynette's tee shirt is fabulous! She could start her own line of Tees! I didn't know bleach could be so artistic.!!!

Lovely post. I was just thinking about the blogging issue earlier today. I was missing what the aspect of ""just blogging"--recording the ordinary days of earlier months. I really appreciate those who do. I enjoy reading them. Facebook swallows up a lot of that, and FB as much as I enjoy it, is simply not the same.

That pie looks SOOO good, and would wind down my evening perfectly...but alas, I will have to visually enjoy it.
LOVE ordinary days...more of those days than the others.
