It's official, I am really tired. My baby even sleeps at night now and I still feel wiped out. I guess exercise and early rises will do that to an out of shape person. Marty is still out at an estimate, and the kids are in bed. The only thing sitting between me and my bed is this blog post. That, and the possibility that I wait for Marty so that we can go to bed together tonight.
He just walked in, so I will probably wait. He always wants to go to bed at 8:30 anyway.
How do you like the play-by-play?
Now I'm typing (duhhh). I just ate a cashew from the container to my right. I've been leaving cashews by the computer so that when I get the urge to snack while I'm blogging (which is perpetually), I'll eat cashews instead of candy. It's mostly made me not want to snack as much. Imagine that.
I'm also listening to the sounds of Marty eating the dinner I left out for him. I cooked tonight! I used to do a lot of crockpot cooking but I keep forgetting to let my meat defrost the night before, or early enough in the morning, so I keep having to throw a whole meal together at the end of the day. How does dinner sneak up on me every day? You would think by now I'd be anticipating it.
This is what we call rambling, and I'll admit, it's a rather fun way to write a blog. I don't know how fun it is for you to read, but I'm rather enjoying myself. I only get like 20 views on each post, it's not like I have some huge following. How does one grow a following. A little part of me wants to work to grow an audience, but then I think "to what end?". I don't want to make money doing this, I just want to create a community, and a community requires people to be in it. For that reason, I've decided that I just need to keep writing, and let growth happen naturally... I'd rather that friends of friends find me than random people out there, it seems like that kind of growth creates a better community, but I really have no idea what I'm talking about. If you do happen to be a reader who doesn't know me personally, I still gladly and warmly welcome you!
Hey, look at that, a whole blog post! A couple more posts like these and how could I not go viral? #sarcasm
Thanks for reading folks, you 20 people make me feel like maybe I'm not just talking to the internet version of a wall.
