Rethinking, rewriting and editing.

I've been thinking.... (watch out.) And, I have spent an exorbitant amount of time lately worrying about my blog posts, fb updates, and the like. (after the fact, you know... like, when it's too late.)

I guess it's not proper blog etiquette to rewrite, or edit blog posts...so, I try not to. I tend to let it flow. From the brain to the computer....and well, it may not always come out right. I try to put what I am thinking about out there and either it will serve as "therapy" for me, inspiration for you or possibly even good fodder for future blackmail. Probably the latter. But still, I try to be honest.

Sometimes when I reread my posts, I see things in them that I wish I hadn't said. (oh well.) Or that could have been more eloquently stated. I hope you will forgive me. Sometimes a rambling brain is not a pretty thing and maybe,( ?) sometimes I should just keep it to myself.

I hope some of you out there can find common ground in the things I say. Maybe someone out there doesn't feel so alone.

So, for honesty's sake...and to clear a mommy conscience... in my last post....it wasn't exactly true that lj. spent the entire day in his bed. I mean, really? Can you imagine? yeah, right... That's kinda like the "you're grounded for the rest of your life." Which, I admit..came out once too. (his response made it all the more funny...like "what?" calling me out on it.) oops.

Funny how "rethinking, rewriting, and editing" can be a metaphor for so much in this life.

Thanks for letting me share my brain, I hope it hasn't scared you.
