I’ve been trying to do this whole blog thing, and in doing so, I made an important realization.  It could possibly be considered a scientific discovery.  You see, I am a perfectionist.  And perfectionists suck at writing blogs.

Why?

Because it has to be perfect. And maybe it’d be better if I add some corresponding links.  And suppose I drew a diagram to illustrate my point.  And now I need some additional sources to back up my findings.  And my diagram looks awful bland without color.  I’d better Photoshop some color in it.  And by now… it is a 10-page research paper, not a blog.

In addition to being a perfectionist, I am also a procrastinator.  This unique combination enables me to be very detailed and demanding – tomorrow.

I have this wonderful, creative system for homeschool record-keeping.  Unfortunately, many school papers end up stacked in a cardboard box, because I’ve put off organizing them in my perfect system.

So I’ve written many blogs, I wanted you to know, but most of them were turned into bigger and better articles.  (By the way, check them all out at http://laurieharley.com.)
