Guest Blogging

My friend Denise is a regular blogger - and writes a blog I actually take the time to read. When I do read her blog/look at the fun pictures/read the comments from fellow readers I'm inspired to do more writing of my own. View From the Glen is the kind of "normal person" blog that reminds me that there are other people out there who have busy lives, sometimes have messy houses but who find ways everyday to appreciate their kids, their dogs (okay, I don't have a dog), their husbands - and all the good stuff that is not quite as huge as these things but still make a difference.

It doesn't always happen - the writing, I mean. I tend to have a slight obsession with digression and strangely, that translates into meaning to write but getting distracted by a thousand other things. Sometimes at the end of the day, I'm discouraged that I didn't write more; I'm disappointed that I let a lot of other things (like sub-par television, my strange obsession with the entertainment page of Huffington Post) get in the way of something I love to do.

Why don't I write more? I'm sure there's an answer but, just for today, instead of letting myself digress, I took a few minutes to blog.
