Ang's Journal

I've had this LJ for twelve years! That's kinda crazy to me. I haven't been using it much since Facebook sucked me in - except for the past month, I've used it to document my #whole30. Being here every day has felt - good! I remember what it's like to be able to use my own HTML tags & place pics where I want them, give things tags so I can find them later, & generally just have more control over my content. Facebook is very limited in comparison.

And while the crowds are definitely gone from here, in a way that's rather nice too. The feel of my LJ has returned to what it was when I first started posting - mostly, I felt like I was talking to myself, but friends would occasionally chime in. Now, it feels about the same - many posts get no comments, some get a couple, & that's fine - because for the most part, I'm writing for myself.

I will still be posting daily #whole30 posts for the next 10 days at least, as I re-introduce food groups one at a time & try to identify exactly where my food sensitivities lay (I suspect either dairy, gluten, or all grains are going to be permanently eliminated from my diet). That will make 40 days of at least one post a day. I wonder if that will be enough to re-kindle the habit of posting here.
