Just checked messages and I was actually going to start putting everything on here. One of the things I am wanting to get better at this year is putting my stuff online. I still never even made a video yet and I should.

Well, honestly I started here.  I remain here.  I did expand to a blog in 2009 and kind of forgot about it for awhile and then really go into it.  Then I started doing Floss Tube videos and forgot about my blog for awhile.  Sometimes it just seems like too much.  I love here first and my blog second and floss tube after that I guess, but if I were to not do one of the three, it would be the floss tube.

It doesn't matter to me if anyone reads my blog.  It's mine and I say and put what I want there.  Floss Tube videos it seems have rules and if you don't follow those rules then you get publicly shamed or gossiped about.  It's stupid.  Let's not forget all the time it takes to make a video and then edit and post.  I remind myself that the videos will be there until there is no more internet and if my family and friends want to see me after I'm gone, i will always be there for them to interact with.  

That all sounds so.........sad.  It's not meant to.  It's how I feel about my Floss Tube   In a weird way having all of these outlets can sometimes be overwhelming.

So here is what I recommend:  If you prefer writing, a blog is the place to do it.  If you want to talk to people face to sort of face, then flosstube could be your thing and maybe start off once a month to keep things simple.

I LOVE watching floss tube videos because I get introduced to new things, watch projects grow and it's more interactive than Facebook or Instagram....which as you know I'm all over those places too, but I can go several weeks/months without doing a floss tube video, posting on Instagram or even being on Facebook but I can't live without my dA
