30 Days of Me- Day 12

Day 12- How you found out about Blogger and why you made one

I started by reading blogs. I had come across RSS feeds on some news websites that I read, and I wondered what else I could subscribe to. Enter blogs; I became hooked. I started to follow several blogs and thought it was a really cool idea.

I started my own blog shortly after a major change in my lifestyle. I had joined a gym and was learning about nutrition and exercise. I was driving my friends crazy by posting interesting things I read on Facebook. I figured SOMEONE might be interested in what I was reading, though, and decided to start my own blog. Sure enough, there were other who not only wanted to learn but wanted to teach what THEY had already learned.

Over time my blog has changed, but in the end I still write for the same reason. My blog is an outlet for whatever is on my mind. I have made some great on-line friends and continue to meet new people all the time. It's a fun way to socialize, and I can do it all in my pajamas if I need to!

Thanks Barbara. It was a lot of fun to start the blog because I felt it had a purpose. I'm glad for what it has evolved into as well.
