Why Do I Blog?

I absolutely love reading blogs! You could throw just about any type of blog at me and I will love it. I love the blogs I stumble across that are full of beautiful photography, hilarious anecdotes and trendy crafts. I love sidebars full of fun links and professional page set ups.

Sadly, you will not find that here. I am not a professional writer, blogger or photographer. At this time I do absolutely nothing crafty and I can barely cook most of the time. I am terrible with technology and if not for my friend Bangel, this page wouldn't even be as cute as it is now. I do not always have the best writing skills, I definitely make a lot of typo's and I am certainly not the funniest person I know. Oh... and you will more than likely never find a tutorial of any sort here. Boo on me.

Here's what I can do...

I can stay up for days at a time and not lose my patience.

I can deal with the dozens of therapists, nurses, doctors, specialists, teachers, social workers, (ect) and not snap as they are all giving me conflicting advice, criticizing me and/or just plain old laying more stuff on my plate.

I can be bitten, pinched, slapped, gouged and have my hair pulled without making a jerking movement that would probably scare my kids.

I can sit and try for hours to get my kids to drink four ounces of liquid.

I can sleep upright in a chair when someone is sick, so I can make sure their airway isn't cut off.

I can deal with people staring, or better yet trying desperately to pretend we aren't near them, without punching them in the face.

I can brush off the dozens of birthday and play date invites we DO NOT receive.

I can advocate all day and all night for my children and other people/children with special needs, even if the outcome means I am no longer in contact with a family member.

So... why do I blog? This is why I blog.

I can lend an understanding ear to anyone who is rowing the same boat as me.

I can lend an understanding ear to basically anyone at this point.
