Why Do I Blog?

The Real Housewives of Oklahoma‘s Monday meme theme is Why Do I Blog?

I had always been interested in the technical side of blogging but I had no idea what I would say. Then I discovered Baloney of That’s Baloney. (Miss Priss is her handle with RHOK.) She was already an acquaintance (who has since become a friend) she told stories with her blog and photographs and is very funny and scary smart and even today if I only have the chance to read one blog in a day, its hers I read.

So I started writing and posting photographs and slowly I “met” other bloggers who were very nice, helpful, and encouraging. Now I am acquainted with a very broad range of people from both here in Tulsa and all over the globe. I have met several local bloggers and find that rewarding. I hope to meet more in the future.

I love blogging because it allows me to tell my story and also find out about other people and their stories. I think that blogging is a big worldwide conversation and I get to participate in it.

It is really as simple as that.

    I agree with you.
    I blog to share what it is like Being Gemel, how I see the world and the people in it.
    Meeting people like you enhances my life in a way I would never have thought possible prior to blogging that is!
    For me the more I write and ramble on my humble blog the more I know myself……

    I totally agree! I love the fact that I have met people from all over the world and get to visit them any time I want through their blogs.

    It’s true! I met a friend who blogs for her resort. Popped in and took the horse photos/video. So much fun.
    PLUS, I have found a local geocacher. I haven’t been able to get into it yet, being sick, visiting Ottawa for the new grandbaby, but you taught me about the prospect!

    Thank you for visiting My Muskoka !

    Blogging has opened a new world to me, too. Though I a rude, crude and socially unacceptable on my site, I try to be nice on others. But I don’t always – I try. I am toally amazed at the different types of people who vist me, too. I feel very fortunate they and you do, too.

    Thanks Yogi – that is a high compliment!
    I have enjoyed your blog immensely and am so glad you started one.
    Someday, I might even geocache.
    Did I just say that out loud?!

    I’m one of these “over the blog”, yay!

    I always enjoy blogs which mix pictures and writing, like yours.

    Excellent answer to the question and I agree absolutely!

    Maybe you should plan an RHOK-Out Geocaching event! 😉
