Somewhere along the line, though, things changed. The blog stopped being random, free-wheeling, whatever's-on-my-mind stuff, and started being something else. I think I can pinpoint the change around the time I started sharing links to the blog on Facebook. My blogs became tempered in tone, less fun, more middle-of-the-road. I certainly didn't want to offend any friends or family with what I was writing, so I kept it safe. Not that the older blog posts were dangerous in any way, but they were certainly more unbridled.
So, I'm going to try my best to get back to the original intent of this blog in 2015. I plan to use it as a brain-dump. Whatever's going on in my head. I won't set out to offend you, but neither will not worry about whether what I post will upset you. Feel free to disagree or get your panties in a wad, just don't rant about it to me. Write your own blog.
Be assured that I will still stay away from politics, Botox, the Kardasians, and trials and tribulations of work or family. But I'm sure I'll find many other topics guaranteed to bug, discombobulate, or hack you off. ~ shrug ~
I love ya' and honor your right to your own thoughts and beliefts. And it's time for me to honor my own. Let 'er rip!

What have I, inadvertently, let loose. I have a suspicion that we may have similar thoughts and opinions (or whatever those snake-like things are called that slither around our brains. Looking forward to finding out.
Onwards and upwards! You know I am supporting this decision all the way! All the best to us bloggers out here!
Go, Mary!
I so appreciate your support, dear friends. And I think it's less about offending people than it is about giving myself permission to write about trivial things and not trying to impress folks. I want to return to my original off-the-top-of-my-head feel to the blog.
