Neglectful

I was a little stunned when I looked at when my last post was written. It was October! I still have 2 posts sitting as drafts that I never got around to finishing. As I pondered what it was that prevented me from writing, it was hard to pin down one reason specifically. There were many. Two of the major ones that I came up with were: teaching the OT this year takes a lot more time because the scripture blocks have several chapters. I just don't have the time. The next was I started using my fb more. What I felt I needed to say, I said there instead. I'm really not sure why that happened, but it did. I was listening to someone yesterday about how we under utilize our influence. I have made a conscious effort to use my influence (however much or little that is) to promote, faith in God and His plan, families, virtuous living, Christlike attributes, self reliance, and our civic duties etc... I decided to condense my message and bring it to more people. I am missing some more in depth things that I want kept forever that writing here provides. So, I decided that I would try to do a little more writing here again, but without so much pressure to be elaborate. I don't have the research time I had for a lot of my previous posts.  I found something to ease my guilt of not writing here where a permanent record could be kept and printed out. There are now sites that will do with your fb page what I was having done to my blog, make it into a book. I like having something tangible that can sit on my shelf and you can easily find the history of what I've lived all laid out year by year. So, all is not lost ;) I better get to typing..
