Things are changing in my life once again. I need something to keep me going, so I hope you don't mind if I take to the blogging world again and write.

I haven't posted to this site since August 2007 when the 35W bridge collapsed in Minnesota. I'm not really sure why I stopped writing, I just sort of did. I was fairly busy dealing with a 1.5 year old and a job, so maybe that's why.

Like I said, I'm attempting to keep myself sane as I navigate my way through life and it's challenges. Writing is my way of doing that.

I have a lot of thoughts flowing through my mind, so there is no specific theme I intend to tackle. I'm sure that parenting and marriage will be common as those are the major forces in my life at the moment. But, I also am very passioniate about politics, books, dogs, and random entertainment tidbits.

I'm pretty honest and straight forward. I compare myself to Heather Armstrong over at my favorite blog Dooce. She shares a lot of things and I always am grateful that she does because I tend to do the same and I don't feel so bad about doing it knowing that she does it too!

If I offend you, I apologize in advance. Many of you already offend me, so maybe just know that you had it coming? Or, maybe don't read my blog if you don't like my writing and thoughts and know you aren't going to agree with me? You have a few options. Just sayin'.

Blogging, again, here I come.
