To Lent or not to Lent?

It’s possibly a distinctly Irish thing but just might be my Kerry roots showing, this weekend was dominated by talk of Lent, and breaking Lent (I was tricked into breaking Lent on Ash Wednesday by a FREE piece of Rocky Road!)

So to keep my mammy happy, and in a desperate effort to appease the gods of literature…this year’s Lenten Campaign will be a “taking-up” effort…not mass, not the quiet solitude of contemplation, and certainly not anything healthy…this year for Lent I am going to get back to my blog!

I’m sure the religious community will be up-in-arms…although I’m pretty sure they don’t follow me so I’m safe!

The blog-blocker…the ‘what am I trying to do’, the premise, the theme that every good piece of online diarying is mean to have, is still missing here…Any suggestions on the whole point of this online diary will be heartily read and counted or discounted as appropriate. The only thing I’m sure of is that I want this to be for readers, rather than writers!!
