My wonderful, sweet, darling husband had Bible Study at our house last night. And, they were talking about me. And, Mr. Serious was teasing me about my blog. Thinking it was funny that I typed the letters "IRL," used Rachel's word tonguegasmic, and had a blogoversary.
But, really, he's just jealous, right? Jealous of me having all of my lovely friends out there? And, he just wishes that he could say good morning/good afternoon to so many people? Right? I think of many of the people that I "know" from my blog as friends and if we lived near each other, we would meet up frequently. I mean, we know each others kids, jobs, hobbies, etc.
So that got me thinking. What do your spouses/significant others/parents thing about your blog/blogging? Do they encourage you? Do they read your blog?
If you haven't left me any blogoversary love, please do so, here.

hubby knows and reads daily. my lil brother that lives in nyc knows. the rest of the family is a big no. and then bc i have a big mouth some of my irl friends know. but honestly i wish they didn’t. make sense?
and yes mr. serious is jealous. as he should be. your coolness factor is through the roof
My hubby started out first (secretly) reading my blog. Then I think jealousy hit and he wanted his very OWN blog. He does not update it nearly as often as me, but she still uses it. I love that!
And not all my friends know of my blog. OR they know OF it but not where it is. I also do NOT share it with my family (although I’ve been tempted to tell my mom). I use it as a venting board sometimes for family (and sometimes friends) so telling them about it, I’d have to censor it a bit. The friends that DO read all had blogs long before moi, they are the reason I started one of my own!
Clearly he is jealous! CLEARLY!!
And yes we would totally meet up IRL. I am sure of it!!
All my family knows of the blogging and support it. Heck it is the only way they get to “see” the kids on a regular basis!
Have a great day friend!
Totally jealous & constantly complaining about how much money it costs him. But, he also realizes how much I enjoy it, so he doesn't complain TOO much.
My hubby reads it occassionally when he has time (translation: never). Then again, that’s about how much I have been spending on my blog too!
Oh my husand thinks it’s a huge waste of time and makes fun of me mercilessly. I am essentially a “closet blogger” to the people I know in real life. They are just too negative about it!
My boyfriend loves my blog! He isn’t a computer guy so I have to tell him when I have posted something that I want him to look at. But he loves reading it
Although sometimes he thinks I am cray because I will sit here and just read and not do anything else…LOL!
My friends think it’s odd, just because they are into facebook and myspace and nothing else. My parents (OUR parents) read it, I guess, but I don’t think they see how much I enjoy it and look forward to it! People that do see it love the way it works…my sister is pretty awesome! David, well, he is not a significant other, but kinda close, and he refuses to look at it anymore. Loooong story!
Pretty sure they all think I’m WEIRD, and I’ll bet they wish I would stop talking about all of these people I “know” online.
I think my husband kind of likes it. He had his work friends all look at it one day. He just doesn’t want me talking about him too much.
J-e-a-l-o-u-s.
I have one family member that reads occasionally, but most of them don’t know about it.
My husband read it when I started, but now I think he forgets. That could be a good thing cause I tend to get embarrassed about it. He will ask if I’m gonna blog about something like if we go to a new restaurant or if Ava does something funny.
He does, however, think I read other blogs too much. Hey, can I help it if I have several I like to keep up with?
haha he is SO jealous! You know he secretly loves it!!
Mr S doesn’t mind. He’s glad I feel connected with people..here in MB I don’t really know many people. I moved here, met him, spent all my time with him, and then we got married. So I never made many friends here
So anyway he’s good with it, but he hasn’t really been able to see it! So that may change when he gets home! And really no one else knows about it..except my sister and she likes it!
My hubs thinks it’s cute. He’s always coming up with ideas for me to blog about and crazy pictures for me to post. He loves it!
The hubs could care less. He sometimes gets all “Are you going to blog about this?” He is somewhat scared that I’m going to discuss our personal life I guess. My mom reads but never comments. She is waiting for the day that I drop an F-Bomb and she has to crawl under the table. She said she gets worried because she never knows what I’m going to say. My grandparents read too. This is weird. First, because they are old and I can’t believe they know how to turn a computer on. Second, because I’m sure they think my parenting sucks. I mean they would NEVER let their child drink from an non-sterilized bottle or suck on a non-sterilized paci. They use to boil bottles everyday. Anyway, all in all everyone is supportive.
If you are still interested, I actually had my husband guest post about what he thought of my blogging. Here is the link:
