Rocket and Luna |

It's kind of tough to write just about my dogs. As much as I love them they do a lot of sleeping, chewing of stuff, eating, wanting to go out, come back in, over and over again. The amusing things worth writing about are sometimes few and far between.
So I ask myself, should I expand in other directions? I have lots of interests. But should I put them in this blog? Or create another? Since I have a hard enough time finding the time to write (with all those myriad other things I do) that doesn't seem to make much sense. I already have two semi-ancient web sites, one for my dogs (originally just Rocket since he was my only dog for so long) plus one just for my interests. Eventually, they became out of date though I do make sure I change a few things now and then to keep Yahoo! from deleting them outright.
My old personal blog had sections on gardening, a rant on collecting "stuff", faux pelicans, a few lists and finally a short section on "retiring early" but by then I'd pretty much lost interest. We had moved to another state, my parents became ill, my health had a few downturns, etc. But now life is looking up a little (and I'm less depressed) and I seem to be interested once more in spreading my crap across the Internet for anyone to read (lucky you!) and blogging seems more in line with my abilities than the creation of fancy one of a kind old style web sites with guest books and counters and blinking words, etc.
I've written journals since I was a teenager Back before personal computers, (yeah, I'm that old!) I didn't write in those everyday, still don't, in fact I can go months without writing a thing. I often wish now that I had been more reliable because I've looked up things hoping they were there and found nothing. I also discovered that I tended to write in them when I was depressed or unhappy. I guess that means that for a lot of those times I didn't write I must have been happy? Who know. I sure don't remember.
So much for anyone making a movie of my life. They'll have to make it up themselves. That could make it more interesting but I'd really rather not trust Hollywood with my life. Heck they'd probably get poodles to play the parts of my dogs. So I'm going to think about this, if anyone out there has an opinion I'd be thrilled to hear it.
