Confession....

Well...I think I need to confess something to my one follower....It is extremely pathetic and embarrassing, but I need to get it off my chest. I have started 8 blogs. 8 blogs!!! That is pure craziness. I guess that qualifies me as a blog hoarder. :(  

Here is the rundown on each of my blogs. (I won't be adding any of the names, or links because I am embarrassed at how awful they are). It's like they aren't ready for human eyes. They need makeovers. :)

1. A Family Blog. This is where I planned to write about things that go on in the family. I wanted to post photos of birthdays, holidays, etc. At the end of the year, I planned to print it as a scrapbook for our family. 

2. A Homeschooling Blog: This was going to be the blog where I specifically wrote about our homeschool adventures. I planned to share information and mainly I wanted friends and family to have a place to come if they are wondering what we are doing/learning. At the end of the year, I planned to print this one as a yearbook. :)

3. A Nature Walk Blog: We were using a curriculum that has a nature day one day each week. We were having such fun on our nature walks and taking lots of fun photos of nature that we thought that maybe it would be good to blog separately about that. 

4. My domestically-challenged Issue: In this blog, I thought that maybe I could learn domestic skills that I seriously lack and find extremely impossible and blog about it. Also...in trying to teach the girls' skills that I don't have. It's like the blind leading the blind here when it comes to domestic things. :)

5. The Deeper Issues Blog:  I started this blog to write about the deeper things....the things that I believe the Lord is trying to teach me. I planned to be extremely transparent on that blog and make it one that would hopefully help other people to know there is someone else out there that struggles with things too. There are just so many blogs that make people look like they are living in perfect families with everything happening perfectly. I was hoping that particular blog would help people see that perfection is a lie. We all struggle with something, don't we? 

6. The Simple Life Blog: I didn't even want to mention this one because I may sound weird, but here it goes...The other one was about how I use to have an infatuation with the Amish and their lifestyle. Since I am not Amish, I wanted to try to adopt some of their lifestyle...the stuff that I could actually get away with. (My husband wouldn't go for moving to the middle of Amish country and getting rid of technology). :) I was hoping to try to blog about living a simpler lifestyle and Amish have that down well. :) I even made up little Amish names for each of our girls to protect their identity. I am such a dork, huh? :)

7. The Random blog: This blog was just going to be there to post whatever else I felt like writing about. Although I am not very good at it, I do really like to write. I am just very out of practice. So, this blog was going to give me the chance to just write about anything. :)
8. This Blog. :) So far, it is a compilation of a lot of the above. :)

Well....Now that I have that out there.....there is more. Not only do I have all these blogs...They are all pretty much empty. Maybe there is one, or two posts. My homeschooling one has quite a few posts. It is horrible, though....Kind of like this one. I am trying to learn to do a better job and decide whether I should have multiple blogs, or just write in one. It seems like that is so many different subjects to write about all in one place. On the flip side, it is hard to keep that many separate blogs up....which is why I never write in the other ones. So....Those of you who blog....What do you recommend? What do you do? I am anxious to hear. :) Also...Is it possible to delete a blog? I can't find out where.
