Why Not!

Yesterday I was at work, going through my normal routine (ya know, checking facebook, checking my email, uploading picture....normal work stuff!), when I came across some blogs from other moms.  A few I know, most were just random blogs I happen to come across.  My god was it enlightening.  I realized that this whole virtual world was available to me and I had not been taking advantage of it.  To add to that, I lost my voice on Sunday and have not been able to vent bitch to anyone in days.  What a relief it would be to express my joy, frustration, sadness etc...online, without being interrupted.  I mean, when did I get so content with simply browsing facebook instead of expressing myself.  I can remember having countless online journals in high school and I also had a diary I would use to write or sketch.  Every aspect of my life, good, bad or indifferent, was documented in writing.  It was therapeutic. I would laugh, I would cry, I would get down right angry and when I was done it was like a weight would be lifted from my shoulders and I could move on.  Why did I lose that desire to express myself through writing.  Better yet, when did I lose the time to express myself at all.  One simply answer....When I had kids!  But, why does having kids me I should lose myself?  If anything, being a mother has add new, more complicated, joys and frustrations to my life.  Now, more then ever, is when I should be venting bitching in writing.  I can only imagine the relief this would bring to the many people I spend countless hours on the phone with, simply to vent!  I think about how many times I make 3-4 phone calls just to get a hold of someone who will listen to me when i need to get something off my chest.  Why did I not think of this before!  Well here I am!  Lets just hope that this brings the same satisfaction as it did years ago!
