What makes me so special that I think others care to read anything that I have to say? Absolutely nothing, which is why someone may read it, for no other reason than to say, “What in the world is she talking about and why is that important?” This could be entertainment for some of you for that reason alone.
Why have I decided to start this blog? As silly as it sounds, because my teacher told me to. I am currently in a class in which our professor told us that we should investigate getting ourselves a website. Then he offered extra credit. Ding, ding, ding! Blog creation became an absolute necessity. Another thing he said, the definition of innovation is- knowing what other people want before they even know they want it- or something very similar. So, maybe I’m being innovative by knowing that you want to read this even before you know it. J
What is this blog going to be about? In short, I am not sure yet. The longer version, this is going to be a work in process. I will probably start with random things going on in my life and throw in some travel information. One thing that people tend to ask me about most is for tips on preparing for cruise travel. I spend way too much money on traveling, cruising especially, so maybe I will consider that a price I have to pay to help others. That excuse is no worse than many of the others I’ve convinced myself are plausible.
How often will I post updates to my blog? Hopefully, quite often. In researching information about how to successfully maintain a blog site, one of the things that are important is keeping new, fresh, and updated content. I really don’t know that I consider myself to be new, fresh, or updated. Now, doesn’t this sound like fun? My initial goal is weekly.
Why did I choose “seven is a crowd” as my URL? Because it’s the truth! Seven is not only a crowd, it’s crowded. How do I know? I live it. Every. Single. Day. Seven = my (mostly) adult daughter, her canine fur-child, my three canine fur children, my feline child, and myself. Seven. How many are seven? TOO MANY!
Now, how to start? I remember hearing a line some time back about the best place to start is at the beginning. Was that from the Wizard of Oz? Anyway, the beginning, it was 1903 and the middle of a sweltering summer…. Oh, okay, maybe not THAT far back. How about I just give you an overview? I’m just over four decades old, I have seven souls living under my roof, and I am in a dead end job, so I am in college at University of North Carolina at Charlotte majoring in accounting. I have successfully raised a daughter, whom I am extremely proud of, and I am in that weird place in my life where I ask “What now?”
The answer to the “what now” question will come, and as it does, we can take the journey together…..shall we?
