Nice to meet you Kevin! I try to be somewhat careful about what I post…because I had someone decide they wanted to hassle me for awhile. Don’t know who they were or why they did it. But I ignored them and eventually they quit..although they did make my life difficult.
However, the reality is that if anyone wants to…with a few key taps they can find out all they want to about you.
I have gone back and taken down a few posts as well. Thought better of it…ya’ know. LOL

What a great post. I probably don’t censor out as much as I should, but I try not to post anything that would embarrass my family. I’ll post embarrassing things about me, if there is good entertainment value in it, but not my family. I’m usually pretty good, but a few times I’ve gone back and taken down a post.

The good thing for me is that it’s mainly family that reads my blog. I think I’m a little more open about things because of that.

Thanks for the reminder to be constantly vigilant about what I’m willing to share and how it might affect others in my life.

Wow what a great post! Really gave me a lot to think about and moreover recall just how much I’ve already had to think about.

Thanks Stacy! Yeah, Kevin does NOT like when I post details, especially when we’re going to be gone. So the upcoming cruise? Is sometime this summer.

But everything else – well, we have come to an understanding over the years. *smile*

Great post Karen! That’s a very fine line that I struggle with too. I do post names, but I have really cut back over the years on details and info about where we go, what we do. In the beginning, I wrote before time about an upcoming vacation or whatever, and my husband was fairly adamant. He was like “do you want to hang out a sign that says, break in and steal our stuff while we’re gone?”. Things like that. So, I have slowly changed some of the way I blog. Also, friends and family read my blog, so when I’m peeved about something, I can’t always blow off steam or vent about it on my blog, as it would more than likely hurt someone’s feelings. So that line is always hard to straddle.

Oh, and for whatever reason, I would have never thought your husband’s name was Kevin! Love the KK, very cute

Have a wonderful day!
