Reasons I shouldn't start a blog

  1. I don’t have any adorable children.
  2. I’m not super crafty, and couldn’t afford the supplies necessary to be super crafty even if I was.
  3. I’m not so good with make-up or fashion stuff.
  4. I don’t go on super sweet vacations, and I usually forget to take pictures when I do go on vacation.
  5. I can’t cook or bake (apparently there is a difference in the blogging world).
  6. I haven’t run a marathon, half marathon, 5K, or completed a triathlon.
  7. I don’t have a political agenda.
  8. It would hurt my feelings and make me angry if people left nasty comments about my political views.
  9. I’m not humorous or witty.
  10. I feel uncomfortable talking about myself.
  11. I’m not remodeling a house.
  12. I don’t watch TV, listen to music, or go to movies all that often.
  13. I don’t have a high-tech camera to take awesome pictures with.
  14. I love eating out, but do not fancy myself a restaurant connoisseur.
  15. I would feel uncomfortable telling a bunch of strangers that I deeply and passionately love my husband.
  16. Announcing that I’ve spent the whole day cleaning the house, doing the laundry, and making dinner usually makes me feel more depressed than accomplished. (Don't get me wrong, I love a clean house, clean laundry, and a delicious meal, I just don't love spending the WHOLE day making it happen.) 

I want to note that I very much enjoy blogs that are written about many of these topics, and I'm glad that many of my friends and family and complete strangers write blogs about these topics.
