being dezzie – reloaded

January 13, 2012

Wow, it’s been a long time since I last blogged on “Being Dezzie”. In the few years since my last post, my life has changed quite significantly. I went from the “simplicity” of being wife and nurse to… *drumroll*… wife, nurse, and mommy of two amazing little boys (one two-years-old and another just barely three-and-a-half-weeks-old). On paper, the change doesn’t seem to be very dramatic; it’s  just one extra word, “mommy”. In reality, my life couldn’t be more different — more enriched and all for the better, of course!

So, what’s driven me to revive this blog? First of all, I do miss writing. Over the last 3 or so years, the only writing I’ve done is the endless documentation on my patients’ care at the hospital. My colleagues might be shocked to hear that I really don’t mind charting as much as the rest of them (but then again, it’s not something one openly advertises!). I do enjoy putting things down in writing, both in the physical act and in the creativity of wording. Of course, not a whole lot of creativity goes into “factual” documentation. I want to write freely just for the sake of writing and expressing my random thoughts. 

The biggest driving force to reviving this blog is my desire to reflect on all the wonders of being the mommy of my boys, especially now that our youngest is just beginning his existence. However, I don’t plan to be blogging about parenthood on this site. I recently started a new blog specifically dedicated to that and, in the interest of my family’s privacy, I’m keeping that blog as separate as possible. (If you’re interested, feel free to ask for the link!) Again, how does that relate to reviving this blog? I guess I just figure that once I get the writing juices flowing, I’m going to be wanting to write about more than just being a mommy. After all, I’m not just a mommy; I’m still a person, I’m still “Dezzie”. Therefore, this will be a place for me to write about anything and everything else, and maybe sometimes nothing in particular, too.
 
So…. yes, we’ll see where this new blog life goes… Yippee?
