Hey!

A blog about who I am and why I blog!

Hey there! Let me take a moment to introduce myself. I'm Jennifer AuBuchon. I'm a wife, mom, daughter, sister, "professional" volunteer, former teacher, educational "consultant," and...blogger. That still sounds weird to me! I didn't even know what a blog was until a few years ago. My sister in law started blogging (albeit briefly) about her son. That was the first I'd heard of blogging.

Dictionary.com defines a blog as "a website containing the writer's or group of writers' own experiences, observations, opinions, etc., and often having images and links to other websites." That definition fits pretty much what I do. In fact, my blogspot is titled "Random Takes on Random Topics." I don't just blog about my family, or crafts, or friends. I blog about whatever strikes me as interesting. Whenever it strikes. I blog in spurts. A follower of mine will at times send me a message saying "It's about time for another blog." Then I have to try to get all creative and observant. Geesh...it's a lot of pressure, but somebody's gotta do it.

I like blogging (even though it doesn't pay well...or at all) because I can do it when I want about whatever I want...within reason.  I guess it'd be nice to know if people actually glean any wisdom or pleasure from reading my random thoughts. Time will tell. So...now that I've introduced myself, I'm going to submit another blog about how quickly time passes. You let me know if you can relate!
