going private... but why???

Dear folks out there...

I am going private in one week from today.
WHY?
Because I have so much to say that I'm nervous to say to the whole wide world.
Ya know like...
how I started a new part time job (it's so exciting!)-
where & when hailey is singing-
how the job search is going & what we've been doing in the mean time-
where chloe is dancing & when you can see her-
details on brian's dating life... (oooh la, la)-
adventures of 11 year old trent & aspergers syndrome & how he came home last FRiday night early from a friends house because,
"He doesn't want to play with me anymore!?
Only because I have really bad gas that I can't control!"
stuff like that-


I feel stifled by the fact that anyone can & is reading this.
I'm not posting like I used to because of it.
I don't like that.
I want to be more personal.

So - if you really are a reader and you want to stay a reader...
leave me a comment with your email address or email me at
and I will put you on
the list.

P.S. I've been toying with the idea of going private as well...I, too, feel a bit stifled because I can't just let it all out...ya know...? The only problem is that some of the people (locally) who read this (secretly) are ones who I wouldn't mind ditching, however, they will be the ones who request to be on the list...dilema, no?

Any thoughts on how to handle this one?

I hate that it's come to this. I have such a terrible time remembering to check the private blogs! But I will TRY to remember to read yours, Patsy.

Karrie said...

Me too karrielcarlson@gmail.com...but you already know that right?! I'm dying to know the juicy dating stuff about Brian....JK

Beth said...

Please put me on your list. I think I too will follow this pattern, I think it is why I am having such a hard time blogging this past year. I started it to journal and share with my family near and far so they could keep up with all the happenings in our home and our lives, but I wasn't prepared for the stress of what happens when the whole world knows all the happenings in our home and in our lives... yikes!
Good plan, I'm with you... if you'll have me :)

Anisha said...

I think your writing is hilarious and I would love to continue reading.

Thanks for the invite.

I completely relate with what you wrote about going private. I miss the readers (and commenters) but I know I have much more documented and have been more myself because of it.

I'm excited to be able to know you better through blogging with your guard down...
