For me I attempt a nom de plume but every knows who I am and my face, and even my parents in law looked up my blog by my real name, but it is an attempt. I don't name names. I don't name my children, though from time to time I do put their photos up, that's simply because they are old enough to either give me their consent or not. My daughters love being on the blog, my Son would prefer to not be. My Englishman also doesn't really like being on the blog. He sometimes draws the line at things he feels he wants to keep personal and only ours, and I try to respect that. I am unable to really tell the stories I want to that involve our life together because they, not doubt like yours, will need to wait until we have moved from this current position. That's a shame because there's a lot more going on in the background than may at first appear and they are great stories. Maybe when I'm old... I draw the line at smut, but I appreciate my definition of smut my not be my MIL's for example. I attempt to mainly not complain too much, not whine not depress. I aim to entertain, inspire and encourage. Even if the only person I'm encouraging is me! I love your blog Potty, and it was nice to meet you albeit briefly at Cybermummy. Would be even better to get to know you a little more.

It always disconcerts me when it's people HERE.I don't know why, it just makes me feel a bit more inhibited (even if it's ex pats & not Albanians when I am having a moan abt their country) I usually tell people about my blog when I LEAVE that country! But I have all those same rules as mentione dby others. MIL & parents reading my blog, even at the ripe old age of 44, censors me ike a recalcitrant school kid!Paradise Lost In Translationhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08507703496080523959noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5175562867822111389.post-76544257946863454672010-10-20T07:33:05.494+01:002010-10-20T07:33:05.494+01:00i often want to turn off my blog and start up a ne...i often want to turn off my blog and start up a new one entirely anonymously so that I can really write what I think but it's really hard to let people know about your blog that way.

Probably because I'm having some trouble with actual people and none of the stuff I would want to write I would want them to read...

There are stories that would make marvellous blog fodder but really it is not worth the fall out.<br /><br />The last one is how the boys might feel about reading a post when they get older. Most of the more embarrassing stuff is censored too - but occasionally some slip through the net.
