Today I wonder…….
*if I’m the only one who might write a great post in my head… while driving down the road, shopping in the store, in the shower but when I get home to put it down, it never comes out the right way or the way I thought it might. I might have forgotten half of it and then I can just never get it right from there. Oh and sometimes I’ll think of something really thought provoking and profound to write about when I’m in sunday school; teacher/hubby will say something really good that I want to remember but that’s usually gone by the time I get home too.
*or more the norm, am I the only one that seems to run out of things to write about?
*am I the only one that takes pictures of random and strange things? like fabric in the store, food in restaurants, my overloaded garbage cans on the road, a door or window on a building somewhere? (what do people think of me that might see me doing that?)
*am I the only one with a too full freezer, an out of control inbox and overflowing closets and attics?
*am I the only one who has a husband that never reads their blog or barely knows what one is? (of course I might be glad lots of days that he doesn’t read here) 😀
*am I the only one who still doesn’t have caller id on their phone! I want that corrected, soon!
That’s about as random as it gets! But sometimes strange thoughts run through this little brain of mine! I might actually think of more later.

you are not the only one! I do however have caller id!
I gave you an award!

No, you’re definitely not the only one. All those apply to me except the caller id. My hubby doesn’t read my blog, but he definitely knows what one is! And how to configure and install the software, since he did that for both of us 🙂

1. I do this All.The.Time. In the shower. While I drive. In church. When I am laying in bed, about to fall asleep. I compose these great posts in my head, and then when I can actually get it down, I can’t remember the exact way I though it, and it loses something. That post I wrote about love? I started it in my head in the shower. About two lines in, I realized that this had the potential to be something I really liked, so I just repeated those two lines in my head, over & over, until I dried off. I typed them into a draft. Then I thought of more while I drove into work, and repeated the process.
2. All the time. That is the beauty of a meme. 😉
3. I am forever with my camera, snapping away. And the few times I don’t have it, I am kicking myself.
4. My freezer is full (which is ridiculous since I live alone!), the contents of my inbox multiplies like rabbits, and while most of my closets are in order thanks to so many moves in the last couple of years, we won’t talk about the state of my bedroom closet. =P (Did you watch Friends? If so, do you remember the Door No One Was Allowed to Open? Yeah…)
5. This one I can’t agree with. No husband, so I would be a little freaked out if he was reading my blog! Ha!
6. I love my caller id. You will be so happy you got it! Mine came standard with my phone service which I get through my cable company in a great package deal. Digital cable with DVR; phone service with unlimited domestic calling, voice mail & caller id; and cable internet.

You are NOT the only one! I am with you on all of those. Even caller ID. Never had it, never will I suspect. I just don’t answer the phone until the machine picks up and I know who it is 🙂
My husband has never seen my blog.
And I have so many pointless pictures on my camera. Occasionally I just clear them all off the disc.
Ah! We are kindred spirits.

I can identify with almost all of the things mentioned, Gail! 😀 Last year, especially, I was taking photos of flowers in neighbors’ yards, and countless items in my own home that would, prior to my having a blog, never get their picture taken! 🙂

Well I guess we have a lot in common, I can say ALL of the above, except for Caller Id which I do have. But all the others, I’m the same LOL
I get frustrated sometimes, I don’t have anything to write about in the blog and as for the camera, mine is attached to my hip wherever I go and I take pictures of EVERYTHING. LOL

I think most of us are right there with you on everything on the list, except caller id. I’d give up a lot of things before I’d give that one up. Well worth the $5 a month it costs to know when I don’t want to answer my phone!

My husband doesn’t read my blog. BUt we did just get caller ID last week – sorry.

Except for being able to say that, yes, I have caller ID, I can say me too…me too to every other thing you mentioned! 🙂 I loved this post!

I do the same thing with post writing! It sounds wonderful in my head but never comes out that way! I also like taking pictures of strange things. I have a gazillion pictures of messy drawers, etc. LOL!
