I’m not kidding, I have around 100 websites, some of which I’ve mentioned here, and some of which I may never admit to!  I have experimental sites, sites I love, sites I once nurtured and loved but have left hanging in the stratosphere, sites that I pay other people to write for because they actually bring in a half decent income but aren’t things I’d want to write over often because they’re sometimes about household appliances and other utilitarian topics but not necessarily always exciting things to write about, and even a choose your own adventure site which I have to finish because I’ve already told my daughter about it and she’s getting excited!

And then I started blogs over things I like to do personally, rather than just posting about them here and assigning them to categories.  You know what happens then?  I end up with all of these sad blogs with like one or two posts on them, and then that makes me sad.

Why, WHY, do I do this??  Do I really think I can maintain 100 awesome sites??  There is something seriously wrong with me!

So, what this comes down to, is that I need to start paring things down, and start writing about personal things, things I really love to do, here.  This is why I will not be starting a piano project blog as previously mentioned, because I love to play the piano, it’s a major part of me, and thus should be in my personal blog!

Another sucky thing about my project is that I chose a really bad time to start it, today we bought a new house and for the better part of the last month have been busy with house-buying bureaucracy out the wazoo, new furniture shopping, and pre-moving cleaning that’s involved with buying a new house.

Today we closed, so that means that we now need to move in, and the piano project will be moved to a future time TBD.

Now if I see one topic growing too big for this blog, THEN I can see making a new site for it, but in the mean time, maybe I will move a few of my other secret, personal bloggy things into this one and stop this madness!

[Edit + later today...] you can now have the theme in Gmail too!!

So if you’re using FF and things look awry, let me now apologize for the unsightliness.  Once I get a few moments I’ll have to fix that.

However, this month it has been in the 80′s at the hottest, often in the 70′s, and even into the 60′s – I love it!!! 

This should be the perfect excuse to get some much needed gardening done…

Plus, we’re supposed to get rain for a few days this week – the cool, dry days are nice, but the cool rainy ones are even better

And yes, I have decided to add ‘Ramblings’ as a category here!
