the blawg is under construction...
If you are wondering what is going on with names, well- I decided a while ago to take our real first names off the blog and go with pen names. All in the name of better security, of course. I try to keep it a little vague here, but I guess we could be more anonymous. I frankly put it off a bit, because of the sheer amount of work involved in going through all my old posts and changing out the names! I will be working my way back, I hope you don't get all confused.

Just to review....

Cast of characters:
Me- I'm still Jen, so far
Hubby- Sky
Oldest daughter- Meg
Next daughter - Josie (or Jo for short)
Son- Demi-Sky (or Demi for short)
Youngest Daughter- Amie (didn't change)

I never use real names, or real locations. Fuzface is my other half...like gollum...or something.

I totally understand this. When I started my blog a little while ago, I decided to aim for anonymity. My name is correct, but my girls' are nicknames. No last names or cities are used. I don't post pics of the kiddos, and the one of me is an avatar. It might be playing it too safe, but I'm okay with that. I can't imagine how long it will take you to go through all your posts and fix the names. I hope it goes quickly :) Thank you again for the Jurassic Park DVD game!

Totally understand. :) I am just happy to see you say BLAWG you southern girl you.

I've thought of doing the same thing but in the end, I'm too lazy to go thru 3 years of archives. So I buy extra deadbolts for the door :)

Lot of work, but I think you're smart to do it.

I'm eventually going to go back through and edit out all mention of the city we're moving to and the name of our church plant--but until the church gets a website, I'm the only way some people have been able to find out about it.

That is a lot of work, but I think it is a good idea. I pretty much give the first initial of my children's names only because I would forget their stage names and start mixing them up ... sort of happens in real life with their REAL names ;)

Oh my goodness that's a job and a half. But I totally understand. I've used alias' for everybody but me. But it took me awhile to decide on the names to be used and remember them! LOL!

Lindsey, I always think of it as "blawg" in my head...

Hen,

I wondered how that all worked for security for you, I don't envy you the task of going back later and taking out all references!

Momto5minnies,

grin- I mix my kids names up irl often...we always got a kick out of it when my MIL did it, she's got 7 names to run thru! I was worried I would get the alias names mixed up, but I think it will work out o.k.

Rick,

her name is Annabelle in real life, but some days we also call her dinner! She's the ornery one...

Thanks for the explanation - I was wondering who your new husband "Sky" was! He sure looked a lot like the old one. :)
