Who still has me in their Reader?

Haha! Just checkin’!  I don’t know why I suddenly feel like posting something, but I just do!  I’m likely talking to myself, since I’m pretty sure I’ve been dropped from everyone’s Reader or feed or whatever.  I haven’t been back to Ms. Understood in months, but today I stopped by to do some link updating (mostly trashing of unwanted links), spam trashing, and comment approvals. Uh, sorry about your comment that got ignored for 4 months, Donna. ;-P  I also wanted to update my links with all my favorite blogs that have never made it up on my links page, but suddenly I’ve lost that motivation, so it may never happen. LOL

I just want to say that I love Facebook and old friends!  It’s as simple as that.  It’s just so fun to be in touch DAILY with old friends again, as well as current friends. So many meetups have been scheduled and carried out…it’s just a wonderful way to connect with everyone.

I wonder how much longer blogging can compete. I know that I’ve had zero interest in blogging (until today, apparently) since I started really connecting with friends on FB.  I do still read a few blogs daily, and I won’t give those up.  But it’s been SO NICE to not feel any pressure to come blog, or to keep this thing updated with any regularity.  I still have a dream of starting it back up again once homeschooling is in full swing (as a mostly HS-related blog), but at the same time, I also have many reservations about it.

I want to shout from the rooftops:  We are FINALLY in our new home!  After months and months (really years, actually) of dreaming and waiting and waiting some more, it was finally finished and we moved in a couple of weeks ago. (pics on FB…of course.)  It’s everything I hoped it would be, and even more. It’s the happiest spot on earth! :) It’s so, so quiet here. No loud neighbors or vehicles. Just quietness. Did I mention no loud neighbors and no loud vehicles???  Just birds chirping, and the sound of wind blowing through the trees. Yes, it’s that quiet. I am in heaven. And beautiful…the view of the woods all around us is so incredibly gorgeous.  I got a patio set for Mother’s Day, and I can’t wait till P gets it all assembled so I can sit outside and enjoy the view more often.

Not a whole lot else to say…but I like not feeling obligated anymore to say something here. I’ve seen a lot of blogs close down in the past year or so, for this very reason. Hmm.  Off to enjoy that view now. :)
