Like Riding a Bike

Of all the wonderful things Carrie has introduced me to; “blogging” has to be one of the most technically advanced concepts to date. As I embark on this, my initial entry into the blogging world, I am filled with the mix of fear and excitement usually reserved for a small child learning to ride a bike for the first time. Lucky for you, you get to fall off the bike and bruise your literary knees right along with me.

So, what should I be ‘blogging’ about?

My brother-in-law, Dave Dugdale, is a blogging pro. Everyday from January through December, Dave hammers away at his computer turning the internet into his own financial and educational playground. Being a seeker of knowledge, I asked my brother-in-law, what do you blog about? Dave’s response: everything.

Perfect, that narrows it down. If ‘everything’ is my subject matter, you are in for the ride of your life. I hope you brought a helmet. I love ‘everything’, and I think it would make an excellent topic for my first entry into the world of blogging, but who has that kind of time? So for now, I’ll have to choose something from everything, and take this opportunity to tell you about a few topics I plan to blog about in the future.

Future topics will include: financial news, politics, travel tips, country music, concert reviews, drinking, hunting, fishing, gambling, vacations, compliments and complaints, sports, fantasy football advice, kids (yes, I love them too), marriage, golf, iTunes, food, folks, and fun.

Come to think of it – this blogging thing is exactly like learning to ride a bike. The first time I got on, I didn’t have a destination in mind, I pedaled in the direction I was pushed, and at the end I fell off unexpectedly. Take heart, with ‘everything’ as my topic, I plan to get back on this bike again very soon. I hope you’ll continue to join me.
