To dig or not to dig?

I have been contemplating starting a blog for a very long time now. Some days I just need to put a sentence or 2 into the universe to feel as if I did something for my cause that day. Others, well there is so much more to say. I find myself ranting on my Facebook about things that are really and truly blog-worthy. Not to mention too hefty to be a headline:-) I follow the blogs of my friends with topics ranging from work, kids, music, recreation and wild times. They talk about everything from bosses, to sleeping with coworkers, to the size, color and consistancy of their kids poop and puke. I realized in reading up on their colorful lives that they are putting it all out there, why shouldn't I? I have never really been one to care what other people think and I usually take satisfaction in knowing that I have pissed you off enough to finally make you REALLY stop and think! I sometimes get too serious about things and just need a place to let it rip and get it out. Other times I find myself angry at how little the world seems to take seriously these days. While my main objective in starting this blog is really an outlet for myself and my frustrations, I should warn that I do intend to get into some issues that most people prefer not to discuss. There is no topic off limits over here at Craw Digger. I could very well talk religion, sex and politics all in one blog. I believe that everyone has the right to their opinion. There is no reason to personally attack people because you disagree. On the other hand, stupid is as stupid does and the world is chalked full of stupid these days so know I am on the look-out. I will try my hardest to highlight positive stories as well as things that enrage me and send me into immediate retaliation mode. I might ask you to take action. I might ask you to just read my thoughts and try to understand. I might ask for your love, support and good vibes. I am sure I will have some healthy doses of family drama as well as stories of friendship, love and growing. I welcome all comments and suggestions as well as the chance to dig at YOUR craw.

  2. Welcome to the wonderful world of blog. I am a reader of blogs, but so far not a writer of one. You may have just inspired me to join the club. Nice.

  3. Yay! Welcome to our blog world. I can't express how much I love blogging. It feels so good to get things out rather than keeping them locked up in my mind. BTW, I feel proud to own up to one of the many things you have read in your friends blogs (unless someone else blogs about the color of their son's poop!)

  4. I love that photo of you, You look so sexy! Littlest T has been by friend since she was 12 and I was 20. I am 42 and she is 30. I am married with 3 kids and she has always been my charlies angle. I love to blog, I think everyone has the right to their opinion, but that does not mean everyone will agree. We all lead a different life and we all have different concerns. Mine are what goes on in public when kids are around, the butt crack showing, the boobs hanging out and just the way people speak.
    If someone has told you to pull your pants up, it was probably me. I don't think I should have to see that in public. The word freedom does not mean you can do what you want. There has to be laws and rules or there would be no order.
    When it comes to our Government, that will be another blog, so stay posted. THanks and have a great day!

  6. How my chickadee has grown. You make me proud! You have always been a feather ruffler and that, Sweetheart, is the essence of who you are. You challenge a person's way of thinking. Mamsy wamsy people drive you crazy. You want people out of their comfort zones...which scares the bejeezus out of most people. You respect others opinions and don't force yours down anyone's throat. You just want to get them the hell out of your way...lol!! Leigh & I have always recognized your strength and determination waaay before you could even identify it. Even as a very young girl, your flaming red hair and spitfire personality was a force to be reckoned with. If people are strong enough to understand you...they are rewarded with a wonderful, loving & loyal friend. It's a beautiful thing to see you channel your energy in a positive and constructive way, hammering out all of life's frustrations while still keeping your kick-ass spirit. I'm looking forward to your commentaries, I mean blogs (that's what old people use to call it before they had blogs!!!
