It’s all about Donna

I think sooner or later folks will see the beauty in blogging. I’ve resisted it for years. I think it’s possible to blog without getting totally personal, but it’s still personal because I’m talking and you’re listening. Remember… it’s all about me. I don’t know that this post will be totally about me, but I’ll see if I can’t spin it that way.

I have a girlfriend who decided to remodel her house. When she discovered that it was going to be extensive, she bought another house to live in while her current house was getting fixed up. Problem was, when she bought the new house, it needed remodeling BEFORE she could move into it. So now she is stuck living in the old house while she’s waiting on the new house to get remodeled. It’s really quite a saga. I told her she should blog about it. This was her reply…

“Can’t do a blog on the house because

1. Too depressing

2. Same ol’ shit, day after day

3. Too busy doing it to write about it

Was in meetings from 6:30 until 10 last night — all bad news, another meeting today, and spent time unsuccessfully trying to track down/stalk architect to get him to come over.

It sucks to live it, would double suck to read about it.

But YOU, on the other hand, are a constant delight!

(I think you need to have the popcorn in the chicken recipe online!)”

See? I knew there was a spin in there somewhere to make it all about me!

I recently spent time with my best girlfriends and a few new girlfriends (I hope they become new best girlfriends, too). I had a blast. I say “I” and not “we” because I don’t know if they had fun or not, but it’s all about me and not them. Right? We did the Fort Worth Stock Show and Rodeo parade. Our entry, the North Texas Whip won the highly coveted Chairman’s Award! How great is that? OK. I concede. That definitely was not all about me, but if I hadn’t been there, things just might have turned out differently. Pam, you know what I mean So technically, it was all about me.
