Life After OpenDiary in The Backwoods

When I started this blog back in April I was trying out a couple of different sites. It took me a while to settle here. Though a friend brought up the site Prosebox today and I am thinking I am going to give it a try as well.

I had originally started blogging in 2004 on a site called OpenDiary. I had blogged there off and on for years with several different diaries. I had never tried to blog anywhere else mainly because I had made friends there. Several I have met in person. Some are on my facebook not be lost, some on my instagram and my pinterest. But every time I come here I think of the ones I did lose. Some who's names I can't even remember...who's real names I never knew and will never know.

I had one lady who I had originally followed me from almost the beginning. She was my mothers age and always giving me motherly advice. I always looked for her feed back after I moved to Colorado. I shared stuff on OD I didn't share with my mother. It was nice getting some mom read on things without the embarrassment of sharing with my mother. She lived up north. Somewhere north of the Mall of America. She had a daughter and two sons. An ex husband and had recently went back to school.

There was another who was an Amry Wife. She was from Washington originally but last I read her and her husband were in Germany. SweatTam I believe her name was.

There was another gentleman. His name was Thing1 or was he Thing2. I can't remember now but he was from Texas. I always enjoyed reading his entries.

I had many names on OD...RebelTearDrops, RebelStars, BackwoodsPrincess, BackwoodsBarbie...Strang things happen in this word. It really is a small place after all...so prehaps one day a friend or two from OD will stumble across me here. They'll stop and say hello and we'll be friends again. Until then goodbye for now my long lost friends!
