I have been pondering starting a blog for over a year. I never saw myself actually blogging until I found The Pioneer Woman and read the story of her falling in love with Marlboro Man. I read about her crazy family and said to myself, “I want to write cute, funny, and interesting blogs like The Pioneer Woman! I want to learn to use a camera to capture interesting things and share them with the world. I want a husband who looks that good in Wranglers.”
Strike the Wranglers comment. I’ve had the pleasure of looking at the Hubby in his Wranglers for almost 20 years…and he still looks perfect in them!
Over time, I started perusing other blogs (see my Blog List) and the person who pushed me into the world of blogging was Jenny Matlock and her Alphabe-Thursday meme. So for my second ever blog, I’m participating in today’s lesson – the letter “P”.
If you are reading this, it means I’ve figured out what a ‘linky’ is and how to use it properly. Mrs. Matlock’s meme is the perfect prompt for pontificating what is on my mind.
If you are not reading this…I guess it doesn’t matter. Is a blogger pontificating on the World Wide Web if no one is reading the blog? Hmmmm.
Maybe one day, I’ll have people following my blog because I write interesting, cute, funny and insightful posts.
I know it is wrong to envy (see below),
but I really,
really,
REALLY want to be like P-Dub!

ReplyDeleteI love P-Dub AND Jenny. Good examples for blogging!
ReplyDeleteIt takes time, but just stay with it. You'll make friends and have fun, too.

Lisa, welcome to the world of blogging! Jenny's meme was really my own induction into the blogisphere, as well. I was so worried about the linky, and getting it right, but it all worked out :) Well, actually sometimes I still screw up my links and have to send Jenny an email asking her to help me fix it. I will enjoy getting to know you as we continue to work our way through the alphabet!

welcome to the crazy blogosphere! Hope you have a great time, you had a great P post!
ReplyDeleteWelcome to the world of blogging! Once you start, you'll be hooked :) I'm the total opposite of you. I didn't discover both Pioneer Women and Jenny till after several years of blogging :)
ReplyDeleteHooray! I just want to say, don't be like P-dub or anybody else...just be you! Then your blog will be the best it can be.
ReplyDeleteWe each have our own life and way of offering it up to the blogosphere.
Just stay true to you and you'll be just fine!
This was a perfect little link to Alphabe-Thursday's letter 'P'!
