I love endings and beginnings, times of transition, lots of change, and best of all…the anticipation of what is coming. Anticipation is the best. Anticipation is why my favorite day is Thursday (anticipation of the weekend) and my favorite month is November (anticipation of Christmas season). Anticipation is almost always even more fun than the actual event I am anticipating.

As I have had some freetime this summer, I have read several blogs that really moved me deeply and affected my thoughts and actions. My new guilty pleasure is reading two kinds of blogs: adoption blogs and homeschool blogs. I realize that this is lame. Adoption is so close to me, homeschool is so foreign. They are both fascinating, in totally opposite ways.

So I began anticipating what I would write about if I had a blog. As I went through my days, I would blog in my mind. But I didn’t have a blog. Now that I do, the anticipation is over and the disappointment is sure to set in. But I am going to hold it off as long as possible. While I was reading these other blogs I decided that there should be a rule that blogs MUST be updated daily or every other day. I demand new information! I was always so disappointed when I clicked on the link and I was staring at the same post I read yesterday.

This is going to be one of those blogs that does not get updated regularly. I wish I could say it would. But I know myself. I am not dedicated to blogging, just the anticipation of blogging. What I can promise is that I will be blogging in my mind, anticipating getting it written down. It just won’t always get written down. But maybe while blogging in my mind I will discover a thought or a truth that changes me. If so, I will consider this blog worth my while.

Maybe it will even get typed out. But this blog is not primarily for you; it is for me, an outlet to concretize my thoughts. But maybe we can share…

So enjoy it while it lasts!
