Starting out all over again was not that simple. I wanted to think of a great title for my blog. The girl's names? No. The girl's nicknames? We really don't have any other than cutie, sweetheart, teeny, etc. Not too original, Eh? Something witty with our last name? Nothing. Finally after racking my brain for something great, I thought of the wonderful feature that my two girls share... Blue Eyes. Then, I thought of the Elton John song, "Blue Eyes". I like the song. It can be a bit melancholy, such is life at times.
"Blue Eyes... I love blue eyes....
Blue eyes laughing in the sun, laughing in the rain
Baby's got blue eyes.... And I'm home again..."
And there it was.... Blue Eyes Laughing. Although they do more than laughing, crying, singing, playing, whining, creating etc. Anyways, One thing down, more to go. Whew!
Next, I decided to get one of those cute blog backgrounds. That wasn't so bad, but I still can't figure out how to get my header into a cute banner I chose. I have since removed the banner because of this.
Next, the "About Me" part. I am married to a wonderfully, paranoid husband. He informs me to be selective about what I say. So, I try to tell as much "About Me" as I can without really telling about me. Clear as mud.
Next, the first post. What do I say? I have never been a wordsmith or incredibly witty so here it is!
Finally, "Why? am I doing this?" Now that I have gone back to work full-time, I feel that I am losing my connections to my friends and family. All I want to do when I get home from a long day is hang out with the family. I don't feel like talking on the phone or going out knowing that I will want to return home soon because I must rise early the next morning to get the kids and I ready for school and work. In contrast to my hermit behavior, I am generally a social person. I love to hang out with friends and family and talk, share a laugh, eat good food and enjoy a drink. So here's my attempt to do both... keep in touch with friends and family from the comforts of my home. :)
