Here we go again....

I love blogging.  LOVE IT.  Unfortunately, my chronic perfectionism does NOT love it.  See, I try to come up with a schtick.  Anybody can write about their boring-ass life, right?  And unless you're already famous, guess what, nobody cares about your boring-ass life.  So when I create a blog, it has to have some angle.  First, it was about being a newly converted Mormon (yeah, that didn't work out-- the blog nor the life choice), then I went on to a super fun look at finance and saving money known as Hooray for Budgets.  I still love finance and budgeting, and I definitely love saving money, but the cold hard truth is that I do not have something to say about it every day.  And you know how it goes.  You realize you don't have anything worth saying on a certain subject for a few days, then all of the sudden you totally forget you were supposed to be talking about that at all.  Sadly, that is what happened with Budgets.  So here we are, trying it again.  No tricks, no themes, just whatever I decide I should be talking about right now.  Am I that interesting?  Debatable.  On one hand, I'm a stay at home mom in the almost-suburbs/ almost-ghetto of an almost- big city in the midwest.  Not sounding promising.  On the other, I'm interested in everything and I'm flaky as all hell, so I tend to do things that others might not do (and it's probably better not to).  That does not by any means mean that I'm a daredevil.  Nooooo way.  I don't do scary things.  I literally just do things that no one else would ever think was a good idea.  Like, I just graduated college, but I don't want to get a job.  Most people wonder, "why would you go in debt (insert a five digit number here) dollars if you don't want a job?"  My answer?  I just wanted to.  I decided having a degree would make me happy.  Does it make sense given my current life situation?  No.  But it's pretty cool to have a degree!
