Just call it boring

I asked about these beautiful bushes in Kentucky once. Did the leaves stay on all year"

(My friend Gary with me, below. He just had a little bump-up with his truck, strictly Debbie's fault)
I got an e-mail, telling me later in the year that they did not. Debbie's mind is like a steel trap, she remembered the question and watched to see, then said huh-uh they don't.

Today's rambling I couldn't figure a title for this entry.

For some reason I cannot write during the day, so my working time is usually after ten. I can go until around two and ideas sorta dwindle. This book has taken many turns from my original idea. It is also much longer than I had hoped. But like a blog entry, I can’t seem to cut it down.
It is a personal thing. When I first started a journal my entries went from 1500 words to 3000. I was tootling along not realizing I was boring folks that came by. The blog is for me of course, but I don’t want to bore anyone, who is welcome to stop by, to tears. I learned via the back door. You know how It is with e-mails. You answer someone and the original e-mail hangs on. They just keep growing. Well I received an e-mail from a family member and several e-mails were below it. So to get context for the forward, I scrolled on down.
1.. Do you read Jack’s journal, the Shipslog?
2.. Yeah sometimes but he is so worded, too long.
3.. Yeah me too, I like to know where they are and so on, I like a good story but not a novel.
Hey, I am thick, but not completely dense. Maybe the forward was not an accident, what do you think?
Anyway I started looking back. YEP TOOO LONG, you just run off at the fingers. I started looking at the blogs that I truly enjoyed. I copied and pasted them and got the word count. It was always less than a 1000 words.

So I cut back. I worked to get it to a 1000 words. Then 700. Now I am down to 400-700, still too long but I am still trying bear with me.
Good example is Paula’s blog. That Cowgirl can say a lot in 200-500 words. There are many more but hers always sticks out. Then there are those who go way over 1000 that I am sorry they end.

Sherry keeps up with who is blogging and who is not. I just read most of the time as they are posted. She goes through the list of 100 or so. She can do that because I cannot get her to comment. I hear, Hey Debbie is back, Betty has a new one. I wonder about Mel or Mel. Sheila hasn’t said much. Wonder what happened to Randy? Oh well I would continue but I reached 400 and must taper off (trying to keep my rules). LOL

This entry is my thoughts, what you do is your business, I respect it and enjoy the blogs. That is what makes the world go ‘round.

PS: Thanks for reading this stuff.

I read for fun, I also find myself reading for challenge (some times). I can’t keep up with Mary of Frankand Mary(thought see was gone), she is way toooo smart (anybody whose favorite music is the hiss of her cat, ain’t right) and Robert (from over inAthens) I gotta think, he makes me THINK most times.
I guess there is something about every blog I like, because we all are unique.

(Oh, That is Sherry, Debbie and Terri with me and Gary in the picture!)
