There are times when I write in the web log that I think of the lyrics from 1776 sung by John Adams

Is anybody out there?
Does anybody care?
Does anybody see what I see?


I know that my traffic is not that of my husband's web log. I also know that a lot of readers have gone to the shorter forms of Facebook and Twitter for their social reading. Others have just stopped visiting for whatever reason. And I do ponder why people stop reading or commenting. Am I writing material that is just that banal? I do tend to stay away from certain topics here on purpose.

Then I stop and remember why I started writing this web log. It started for my family to have a day to day look at my life with Caroline and the rest of my family since there were so many things happening so fast in her little life. I didn't want to forget to tell them. Then I started to make a record for Caroline to read down the road if she wants to. She can read about the things she did before she could really remember doing them and recall things that she has vague memories of. Friends found out about it and they started reading which makes getting together with them much easier because we don't have to spend a lot of time catching up on things because they have been reading my web log.

I have made new friends through this web log. I have met people in real life that I would not have if I hadn't had a web log. I have participated in groups and activities that I would not have if it hadn't been for this web log.

So it serves several purposes for me. And I plan on continuing to write in it. If there is a pause, just put it down to life that got a little hectic and I'll be back once things settle down. We had some news that we are still processing so good thoughts for a good outcome would be nice to have.

I do have my regulars who do comment and I so appreciate that.

I am grateful that I have been writing here as long as I have.

I am putting this under a cut since the subject material might be rough for some people. I am talking about college and accusations of harassment against a professor by a number of students.

This has been my entry for this weeks LJ Idol. The story was true. I did gloss a couple of things but the facts were real
