I started this blog years ago, at a much different time in my life. I didn't even share it at first, because I wanted somewhere sort-of public but mostly private to spill out all of the shit that I was going through.
When I moved to Florida, I used it as a way to keep in touch with my friends and family and share all of the things that happened to me here.
I kind-of got lost in this blog and lost my focus. I feel myself censoring my thoughts a lot, and I just feel like I have outgrown this blog.
But that is all ok. I am changing my focus and what I write about and what I share...I will be writing more observations and poetry, and while in some ways that is a lot more soul-baring than this has become, in other ways it allows me to be a lot more uncensored. Please check me out here. Bookmark me, come visit, but I understand if it is not your thing. I just need something new. I will still read you!
Honestly, I don't know if I will close down this blog....but I think for now my focus will be here: http://spinetingley.blogspot.com/
But I am finding it hard to let go of this site. I know that's probably done, because who else cares but me? But still, I feel like it has been a place where I changed a lot, but I think I need something else, too.

And Then What?
So.
Here we are! Yeah.....
I keep thinking, "I really should blog!" because of all the self-indulgence and stuff of keeping a blog, but honestly? I don't want to write about some things. Like:
The end of school is really busy!
We need a new roof! So far, in the first year of living in this house, we've put $20,000 into it! Yes, you read that right! Hmmm...no one warned us of this. On a side note, both of our across-the-street neighbors are are also getting roofs put on. That one storm was a bitch.
Pete works too much! It sucks!
The thing is, I am thinking about all of this stuff all of the time, but I am really happy right now, too. It's beach weather, our improved house is great, I love my husband, I love my family (even though I miss them a lot since my mom and dad moved back to NY for the summer), and my friends are great. AND, I am writing A LOT. We've been doing The Artist's Way and I have been taking a writing class, so I really have been writing a lot and turning out some things I like.
As for blogging?
It's at that point where I feel like the things I would blog about would seem like I am complaining, and honestly, does anyone care? I love my life, but do you care that we bought Mamba all new cat-fabulous things the other day? Probably not. If I had some more energy, I probably could have made it into a funny story, but, well, I didn't.
Plus, I think I am social-networked out. Twitter, Facebook, Blog, email, text, and then actually talking on the phone or in person with people, it is too much. Seriously.
So, we'll see what happens here. Things are great, there is also a lot going on, and I don't know if I am so into it right now.
