Something New

3 weeks ago, my 8 year relationship ended. There... now that's out of the way.

I used to write a blog that centered around my relationship, and now, three weeks postmortem, I've decided that it's time to write about something else. As I thought about what kinds of activities and hobbies I wanted to throw myself into to cope through this change, creating a new blog seemed like the best place to start.

So then it became a question about "what" I will write about. What I liked best about writing my old blog was sharing things that made me feel happy or made me laugh.... and the idea that when other people read the blog, they laughed with me (or at me - no big difference!) - and that's a tradition I want to carry forward in this new blog. I also love the idea of keeping a thankfulness journal - but I am nowhere near dedicated enough to write in a journal every single day.

Focusing on the positive right now seems like the healthiest choice. So here it is. The idea behind the blog. 

Welcome to my inner satirist... sharing tidbits of fun that I may encounter, create or observe.
