I almost shut down this blog, almost. And before it even got started. Frankly it made me sad. You see I left it open when distracted by the munchkins one day and The Diplomat found it and read it. It's not that I have, or would, say anything he can't read. I just didn't want to filter. I spend ALL my time filtering for everyone. I am a middle child you see and that's what we do. I can't freely write if I think someone I care about will read it and have a... reaction. What does that mean? Really I don't know but I DO know that I don't want to have to worry about it. The Diplomat promises he won't read it again now that he knows he's not supposed to. I believe him. He is a trustworthy guy. I know I would want to sneak a peak, and very well may have if the roles were reversed, and then feel guilty. But him, no way. He is a man of honor. I am lucky. So after careful consideration I'm gonna keep going. We'll see if I can write without restraint knowing it's possible The Dip will read my thoughts. Luckily I married the greatest man on earth so I should be able to get over it and carry on.
Hope everyone had a merry christmas, happy holiday and soon... a happy new year!
I think this is where men and women are different. I wouldn't be able to stop myself from reading once I knew it existed, but if he's saying he won't read again - he probably won't. Gotta love that about men! :)
ReplyDeleteMy husband always reads my blog. He can't get to it on this deployment from his computer so I've been printing out blog books for him. I usually express myself more clearly through the written word, so it's really helped him understand what's going on in my crazy head. Plus, if he's pissing me off, he's going to the first to know. I'm not one to stew. I'm glad you've decided to continue blogging.
ReplyDeleteHa, ha SIF so true about men! Women in general just can't help themselves. It's like gifts. I cannot NOT open a gift - I get so excited. It's the same in the giving too. I just can't wait to give it and see the reaction. The Dip can hold on to a gift for a week and not even think about opening it!
ReplyDeleteArmy Wife must be the psych in you that puts everything out on the table. I could learn a few lessons in that department!
