After many months of denying any intentions of starting my own blog, I have finally given in to the peer pressure. Maybe it was that I was feeling hypocritical for reading other blogs, and at times commenting, yet not doing my own. Maybe it was because it is summer and I am off work and need connection to the outside world, even if it is through the internet. Maybe it was because I have a lot of questions/comments about what goes on in day to day life, and I just want an outlet to discuss and have feedback. I guess after awhile, I will have more of a blog identity as I see what kind of flavor my posts have. I do know what my blog will not consist of:

1. Anything having to do with my husband. He is a pretty private person (case in point - I was eight months pregnant with our second child and walked into his office. His co-workers didn't even realize that I was pregnant.) In fact, that I have just said that he is a private person is probably more information than he would have liked me to share.

2. Deep religious, spiritual thoughts. It's not that I don't have them, but I'm not one to make good parallels between everyday life and how that relates to my eternal future. I'm sure the parallels are there, I just don't take the time to explore them.

3. Pictures of my kids. We are currently working out a deal with People magazine for the rights to their photographs - we are donating all to charity of course (okay, just kidding about this one. But there may be no pictures if I can't figure out how to do it, and Jason may not be supportive enough of the blog to show me!)

Which brings me to my final point in this post. I'm not sure what to call it. All the good names are taken, and I don't have a fun last name to do a play on words. For example - the "Grate" Update or "Grate Thoughts." Very cute. "Wuertley Thoughts" doesn't have the same ring to it. My sister-in-law's is "Our Life in a Nutshell" (soon to be changed to "Our Life in a Nuthouse" after the birth of their triplets) and my cousin's is "Our So-Called Life." Again, two creative, interesting blog titles.

So any of you who have decided to view this blog, I am open to suggestions in regards to the title of this blog. I would like to say that the winner will receive millions of dollars as prize money, but since the People magazine deal fell through (they chose some baby named Shiloh over my kids) just the satisfaction of knowing you creating my blog title will have to be enough.

We'll see how this goes. I'm a little nervous. Does anyone else break out into a sweat and read their entry ten times before they post? I'm having bloginsecurityitis already.
