After I posted last night, I started thinking about everything that I probably should have talked about but didn't. How could I start a blog without warning you a bit about my personality and what might happen on these posts?
I typically don't have much of a filter. Not because I don't know how to behave because I know when to put my grown-up face on. Just because I really don't have too many secrets or "off limit" topics. I am the person that tells you something and then when I walk away you wonder, "why did she just tell me that?"
I don't know why. Probably because it's funny and I find that being really open makes life a little more interesting. Life is so amazing with its many ups and downs and quirky moments. So when I tell you that when I go somewhere after dark and I go to get in my car that I have to check behind my car for a Bengal tiger, there is no reason for that story. It's just bizarre and makes me laugh and I want you to know about it. How boring would it be if I was the only one that knew that I have to check around my car for tigers in the dark and quickly devise a plan, choosing between running back in the house or jumping in the car? I'll tell you - BORING! (And always run back in the house. He could slash through your car and get you.)
Now I do feel like I need to prepare you somewhat for what might happen in the future on this blog.

I have warned you that I will say anything. My intention is never to offend and I don't worry too much that I ever would offend anyone but I am just throwing that disclaimer out there. Because you never know. When I say I will talk about anything I don't mean literally anything. If you ask my opinion on certain topics I will be honest but I am not writing this blog to try to be political or too deep.
I am certainly not politically correct though. That's for certain. But I also, thanks to the Holy Spirit, know what topics not to talk about most of the time so I will more than likely not get too controversial on here. I made that mistake once on Facebook and that was a nightmare. All that happens is that I come off looking self-righteous and judgmental, and that's no bueno, so we won't be going there.
I'll leave all of that fun action up to my husband. He literally has no filter and LOVES nothing more than to debate (argue) talking points. Mostly centered around politics and end times. Which makes him SUPER fun at dinner parties or family events.
I work in staffing so the comedic material that comes through this joint is mind-blowing. People are HILARIOUS without even trying to be.
I say that because I am sure that I will tell funny stories from time to time about the "goings on" here at the office. It in no way is ever meant to come off as mean-spirited. We are so blessed to do what we do and we take our calling very seriously. But we get droplets of hilariousness come in here from time to time and they have to be shared.
I really think that's about it. Now that I have blogged about my future blogging for 2 blogs now, I should probably just focus on the actual blogging.
Consider yourselves prepared and warned...

I will have to say based on almost 4 years of blogging. This blog? It's YOUR blog. Do and say what you please. This is the one place filters are not required. Facebook is a place you will be criticized no matter your opinion. But here? Feel free to talk about your vijayjay, aunt Flo, your crazy real Aunt Sue, Pinterest projects,opinions on birth control, sperm counts...you know, just whatever crosses your mind. *just a sprinkling of things you'll find on my blog, FYI. ;)
