YouTube-Blogging-Vlogging

So I normally blog a lot. I blog according to what is going on in my life. Happy, sad, public or private. You share what you want to share. But all of this is very public. It's just what it is. But are you truly being a blogger/vlogger if you're only allowing certain parts of your life to be known? I'm not trying to bash anyone... But I'm just asking a legitimate questions. How real do you let yourself get? When I was younger and single I did live my life as an open book and shared every emotion and story on my blog. But since being in a relationship and getting married; it's not just me anymore. I have to respect that my husband may not want me (and I know he doesn't want me to) plaster our business all over my blog. I respect that. I don't have to only talk about my relationship with my husband. I can rant and rave about work. My mini. My furbabies. My photography business (which by the way I have another blog for that I also suck at blogging at) I also sensor myself on my blogs. I don't curse a lot on my blogs; I don't know who reads them. It could be young adults or my family. I don't want to put that kind of bad influence on my name and reputation. Now I'm not saying that I'm perfect or that I don't curse because I am by no means perfect and I most certainly do use a few choice words frequently. Just in my own time and only around my close knit friends. (I don't even curse around my parents...only when I'm SUPER DUPER mad) 
I really want to get into the whole YOUTUBE/vlogging thing. I think it's a really awesome way to document your life. And in my head I think it's easier to vlog on the go than to blog on the go. I don't know I could be wrong and it may just be an opinion. I haven't tried it yet. But I'm working on getting my vlogging equipment. I'm excited to try it!

2026

 Where do I even begin? I got sick a few days before New Year’s Eve and ended up ringing in 2026 sick. Is anyone surprised? Because I’m not. I was down for a full week with a terrible case of strep throat—and I don’t even have tonsils. My doctor basically said I’m just prone to strep… because of course I am. Just my luck. Let’s back up to a few days after Christmas. My husband goes on his annual hunting trip every year, which is usually why I end up ringing in the New Year alone. But this time, I decided to go with him. We packed up the Frenchies, Bruno stayed with my sister, and we headed west for a long weekend of hunting. He always brings a couple of deer home, and that meat lasts us through the year. I know hunting isn’t for everyone. We don’t kill for sport—we hunt for food, and we use every part of it. This was actually my first time going to truly hunt. I’ve been out to the land before to shoot guns, fill feeders, and hang around camp… but I’d never gone hunting until now. I...

My sister and I took an early 7 a.m. flight to New York for her birthday. The night before, I had put on a new Dexcom, but just as I was leaving for the airport, I got a notification telling me to remove it immediately because it was defective. Cue me frantically trying to replace it without crying—definitely not the smooth start I’d pictured. At the airport, I somehow ended up at the wrong gate while my sister was at the correct one. I went through security alone and made it to what I thought was our gate, waiting by myself for about 20 minutes… until my sister called, annoyed, asking where I was. She thought I was running late and was now rushing through security, while I was already calmly sitting at the actual gate, ready to board. We finally met up, I apologized for the mix-up, she forgave me, and we grabbed some coffee. Caffeine in hand, we headed back to board—only to discover we were surrounded by a group of about 20 teenagers on a school trip to New York. My sister and I aren’...

It’s hard to put into words where this world is headed. I don’t share political opinions or push my religious beliefs on others. Instead, I choose to stand firm in my faith while seeking understanding and finding ways to relate to what’s happening in today’s political climate. As a "younger" person, based on what we’ve been taught and learned growing up, the way to make a difference is by speaking up, showing up, and advocating for your rights. So how do we not feel silenced when we see a young man gunned down simply for standing up for his faith and his rights? Times like these make you question how much you want to share on social media. Will I be judged or even persecuted for my faith? But I remember what my mom told me when I was younger: if anyone ever asks about my faith, I should always stand up to say that I am a Christian. No matter your political beliefs or religion, this act of hatred is completely unacceptable. A life was taken, a murderer acted with violence, chi...
