Me, Middle Aged?
I started my blog a little over a month ago. It was generally just a way for me to let you peek in on my daily life. Boring as it may be. As a blog newbie, I started looking for places to list and promote my blog. Yes, I did want someone to read it (I guess). Somewhere along the surfing line, I realized that you could read and link up with other bloggers. Duh. I'm not stupid, but that thought never really occured to me before. Go figure. Well, there are millions (I mean gazillions) of bloggers out there....I wanted to read blogs of women that shared my pain. Had thimgs in common with me. Worked at home, had older kids, were around my age.
So in my quest for brilliant, like-minded women, I found eMoms at Home. A very nice work at home blog site. Like it there. And from there I found BlogHer. Ooooo, excellent women's blogging place. And from there I found Midcentury Modern Moms. Most excellent site for moms with older kids.
And so I started reading and commenting on blogs. I found women who I had things in common with.....but what I never expected to find/find out was that I am now middle aged. Me, middle aged....mid life. wow. I am so usd to being a daughter, niece, cousin, mom, I never noticed time really was passing and here I am all grown up and half way through my life.
After reading some of the other blogs, I am honored to be included in their "group" per se. But now instead of having a blog to let me ramble and roam, I can see that they are going to make me think about where I am in my life. I never really thought about it before. My life is my life and it is a good life.
But....maybe there is more......am I really where I want to be, doing what I want to do? For now the answer is yes....I really do have a good life and I do enjoy what I am doing. But maybe there really is more I need.....and so my journey will begin into finding out what middle aged and mid life means to me. And as long as I can have chocolate, ice cream and cheesecake to sustain me on my journey, I know I will enjoy it. Oh, and pizza. Don't forget the pizza. I love pizza with bacon, onion and banana peppers.....what do you like on yours?
