I posted a blog last week that mentioned my bunion and was chided by a viewer for over-sharing. They said "what does that have to do with East Hampton anyway?"
Well, my feet are here in East Hampton, along with the rest of me, and the reason I renamed the blog "Life Out Here" some time ago was that one can only talk about the sunsets at the beach and the ducks at Town Pond so much before every blog will sound the same. In fact, I started to write one a short bit ago about the ducks that have invaded Town Pond and I was halfway into it when I stopped and thought to myself "Have I already written about this?" It's been years since I started writing this blog and after awhile I forget what I've written and worry that people will get tired of hearing the same old thing, so I tend to write whatever my recent experiences have been in an attempt to make it topical and non-repetitive.
So - forgive me for venturing into weird territory occasionally. I don't mean to offend and I don't want to bore. And sometimes finding the perfect topics and middle ground is a challenge! But I promise to try! And yes, the pond and the ducks will no doubt see their way here again...sometime...

You can write about bunions or ducks if you want to ! I'll still read your thoughts. I know what you mean about not being repetitive and trying to keep it interesting. It is difficult at times. I dislike walking the middle ground but attempt to not stray too far from that " safe " zone. LOL
Just keep writing Barbara we all love you.
Re: Ben's last comment, I need to say....YEP! We do love you, and agree with Ben! Keep writing, whatever is on your mind.
I agree, too!
