I know that a lot of time has passed since my last entry.
There have been some changes that have inhibited my writing - basically because by the time I get home from work (which is now full time instead of part time), where I spend 90% of the day on the computer, I don't want to sit on the one at home. That and the desire to complete home renovations as well as play outside, doesn't leave a lot of time for blog writing.
Another reason that I stopped and went on a bit of a hiatus is that I had a "friend" that swore that she would never do a blog when I started mine and we had a lengthy discussion as to why a blog was a bad idea in her opinion. So while mine was going in full force, I noticed on crackbook, I mean facebook, that she had started one as well. And upon reading it found, that it was pretty much a carbon copy of mine. After that I also noticed that as soon as I posted a pic on facebook of a view where I was at the moment or what I was doing, then miraculously within 5 minutes she would be doing the exact same thing.
Now all this could have been a giant coincidence but I did a few "tests" and no word of a lie, within 5 minutes she would have done something very similar.
Now I know the saying that it sincerest form of flattery, but to be honest it was driving me NUTS!
Now I have friends that have blogs as well, but I don;t feel that mine is a copy in any way of theirs, since most of theirs are about their trials and tribulations of parenthood. Which I guess could be compared to making it to the summit of a mountain. So to those that have those blogs I'm sorry, but I swear, any similarities are purely coincidental.
Back to the Everest front - the plans are still there! The training has fallen a little by the wayside, but it is coming back. See above for all my excuses :S.
I just wanted to fill everyone in as to why my absence has been so long and why. It was a case of copycatitis, which has been rectified - thanks block/delete on facebook.
More entries will be coming soon! I promise!
