That's what I meant to say.

I am enjoying writing this blog more than I thought I would. It's refreshing, and I feel like I am on a playground in the side my left brain. (I think that is the creative side.)

Well tonight I was telling my girls about my toilet blog from earlier today. On the way home from rehearsal tonight, BigB read it out loud. She read errors and all. I was horrified! There were extra words. There were subject-verb agreement errors. There were missing words. It was horrific. The worst part of this: I proof read, re-read and edited several times, but I did not catch these glaring errors.

I've known for a long time that I cannot proof read what I write. I have a tendency to read what I meant to say, not the words that are actually on the page (or the screen). This is a very frustrating problem, because there is not always someone there to proof read. As silly as it is, I am a better self-proofer with a piece of paper than on the computer screen. I have no logical explanation for this.

So, if you read my blog, and notice an extra word, or a missing word, or something just doesn't make sense, let me know. It's okay. I'll let you know what I meant to say.
