Undecisive
I can't decide what to do. As has been previously established, I am an over anxious person . . . most specifically an over anxious mother. Because of this, it took me a long time to warm up to the idea of having a blog at all, but now that I do I love it, blobbety blah blah. But, all this privatization makes me nervous. And all the people using fake family names and all sorts of other craziness--what is the point of having a blog if you can't even use real names. Not to mention the internet safety seminars. I'm just telling you DO NOT attend one of those if you tend to the over anxious side . . . you will have symptoms similar to having a heart attack for at least a week afterward.
So, here's what I am thinking. I think I'll make my gillar girl blog private. That way I don't need to feel like I have to be so vague about everything and hesitate to put pictures of my family up. I've already started another blog to use as my electronic project file and maybe I'll start posting a lot of what I do on gillar girl there too, but without the family pictures.
In summary, gillar girl is family photo album story time and bohemia is all other random idea posting with boring commentary. I think I'll sleep on it . . . and feel free to give your input on why or why not you do it the way you do.
Update: Thanks for your input guys. After sleeping on it and talking it over with Jimmy, I think I'm going to keep on keepin' on with what I've been doing. I don't know if I would dare give any more information that I do even with it being private. (What if someone hacked into blogger?! I KNOW. I'm a fruit cake) and plus I can be a slug and the idea of compiling all those email addresses is daunting.
And please don't think I don't like blogs droppers (I love to do it myself) because I do like all of you nice ones that come by, and so far I've only had nice ones . . . and don't be afraid to comment either cuz then we can be real friends. Okay? Okay.

I will support you either way you go...but for my comment, I require an invite, that is, if you go private. ;)
ReplyDeleteI am wondering the same thing. I think it wise to go private, i've been hearing stories lately.
ReplyDeleteI stumbled on your blog from someone elses (which now probably makes you nervous after reading your post)but You have an easy way of writing that is fun to read with great ideas to share. I like to mosey this way and check out your great ideas. My idea of having a blog (everyone is different)is to share ideas and great finds with others with similar interests. If you want it to be more of like a diary then go private. My thoughts.
ReplyDeleteMake sure I get an invite, I've been contemplating the same things. I'll let you know my decision soon as well.
ReplyDeleteI feel the same way and have gone through the same thoughts and concerns. I am just doing the same thing, being vague! Love your blog though and would love to have an invite if you do go private!
