How to get started...

I've been gnashing my teeth for a few months (more probably?) trying to figure out how to get started on my own blog. I finally decided just to rip the band aid off quickly as the saying goes & just jump right in feet first. How many cheesy cliches can I type before it becomes quite redundant?

I follow blogs such as the awesome http://http//thepioneerwoman.com/ or the beautiful http://http//www.kellyskornerblog.com/ and I can tell you not to expect the same thing here. They're probably better spoken and more interesting than I am. I'm trying not to be too self deprecating but it's not working well, is it?

Anyway-I'm unemployed and was attempting to find a job before now but I was recently for the second time in a year diagnosed with ovarian cancer so I'm taking the time right now to go through chemotherapy and get well so I can move on with my life. My prognosis is good and I intend to beat this thing! But you should expect a lot of updates about my treatments, my crazy family (who I love dearly), my favorite TV shows, my cooking attempts, baking attempts, possibly going to school in the future, and hopefully getting a job. My life maybe boring to some but I'm hoping that maybe this blog can be cathartic for me and possibly lend some advice to other people either recovering or going through Ovarian cancer at this time. So hang on, sometimes it might be boring and sometimes it might be crazy. You just never know with me.
