I only post when moved to do so. If it began to feel like an obligation, i think i would stop completely. Quite frankly, I don't write for anyone else so much as myself, to process what I'm thinking and feeling, to record things I don't want to forget. I think what I'm trying to say is don't feel as if you have to entertain your readers all the time. We are here for you, all aspects of you, whether lighthearted or more shaded. That said, I too have taken down posts from time to time. Your spirit knows. 37paddingtonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12400464105403622384noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3405619091794912972.post-56722893420066567112018-08-26T03:35:45.152-03:002018-08-26T03:35:45.152-03:00Hi Jenny, you asked about the wings.

I didn't think it was a bad post, as I know people who were mistreated as children who could have used outside attention from benevolent adults, but I understand your discomfort, especially in ongoing close quarters with your neighbor. <br /> Sometimes kids scream and raise a ruckus. My neighbor's kids do it daily, and I'm certain they would not welcome intervention from me.<br /> I tell many stories about inflammatory, illegal, or potentially damaging subjects, but I only use them as stories after the statute of limitations has run out, both literally and figuratively. Or, if you'll pardon my language, as we say here in Oakland, I try not to start any shit.<br /> Post when you want to. Your blog is delightful partly because of the fun you have with it, so perhaps if it turns into a chore it would change its character, which is fine if that's what you want, but can also sneak up on you if you let it.<br /><br /> -Doug in Oakland dinthebeasthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12941071534250216503noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3405619091794912972.post-21447443740743306592018-08-25T15:25:42.115-03:002018-08-25T15:25:42.115-03:00Yes, but the thing is, you don't need to know ...Yes, but the thing is, you don't need to know ANYTHING about my hair, my bird feeders, my crappy gardening skills, my walks, etc etc etc, now do you? loljenny_ohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15475480579733466963noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3405619091794912972.post-75673228263048542562018-08-25T15:24:38.927-03:002018-08-25T15:24:38.927-03:00I think "we've all been there" is a ...I think "we've all been there" is a pretty safe statement, Martha!

You are a good soul. The fact that you think deeply about this issue and how you present it to the world speaks volumes about you. I don't know what the incident was about but I do know that when it comes to parenting, we've all said or done things we regret. Perhaps from frustration, impatience, fatigue...whatever the reason, we've all been there.<br /><br />Have a happy and peaceful weekend!Marthahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07470947568183528236noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3405619091794912972.post-47451171889060413202018-08-25T10:25:02.007-03:002018-08-25T10:25:02.007-03:00I did read Friday's post and thought that it w...I did read Friday's post and thought that it was an unusual one for you and I was too early to read any comments. Couldn't comment myself as I haven't come across anything like that, although I thought it was a cruel thing to do.<br /><br />I can understand your hesitation in writing it and then deleting it as I have sent comments to a few blogs which I wish I hadn't said. Mainly personal things to do with close family members, all true, but it wasn't my business to say. I'm afraid I get caught up in the topic that's being discussed. Unfortunately once I press the button to publish it is too late, I can't delete it. Now I am forcing myself to hesitate before sending a comment on any blogs. Sometimes I get a bit carried away, but I am getting better.<br /><br />I've more or less got my poem sorted for Monday, so 'see' you then. Don't be too hard on yourself.
