After reading many creative and unique blogs, I've decided to begin my own blogging journey. My sister-in-law started a blog in February after she and my brother moved from California to Iowa. Reading her posts have been a great way to read what's going on in their lives. And since it's National Blog Posting Month, I thought I'd give it a try and share with others what's going on in my life.
So, with that said, I must explain where I came up with the name for this blog. An un-scientific study was conducted years ago that discovered women say three times as many words as men per day. Well, duh! On average, according to this study, women say 20,000+ words compared to men saying around 7,000 each day.
I left the working world in December of 2006 when I went on maternity leave. I previously worked at a local radio station (more about that in future blogs) where I was an on-air radio personality. Basically, I got paid to talk and had countless opportunity throughout my work schedule to get out a good portion of my supposed 20,000 words. Once I left the station to become a stay-at-home mom, I began to worry about the amount of words I would have bottled up by the time my husband got home from work each night! After 11 months, I'm happy to say that yes, I am getting my words out each day. And now, I feel that this blogging may just help me shave a couple thousand off my daily output!
