Days 1 & 2

I saw this '100 Happy Days' thing on Facebook and thought, given my state of mind lately, it would be a good exercise to write posts and/or take photos for the next hundred days about what makes me happy or what I appreciate about each day.

Then, I thought, perhaps it's about time I let people know a bit more about Kath Bee - the person/children's songwriter/entertainer.  Facebook is great - it gives people a wee insight into one's life - for me it's a great place for promotion and telling people what 'Kath Bee' the artist, is up to.  And occasionally what I, Kath, am up to too.  But it's not exactly real.  I mean, all I say and put up there IS real....but it's only the good stuff.  You know?  IF I was posting as me...Kath...I would probably be putting up how I'm really feeling every day - the ups and downs of my life, my career etc.  But as an artist, you don't want to tell people what ISN'T going well or how you're REALLY feeling, or what you REALLY feel like doing with your computer......

So, here's my blog, which will be including my 100 happy days, but also some other, more personal stuff.  I'm not going to go all out - I don't want everyone to know EVERYTHING!!  But a more real version of how everything is.

I started blogging YEARS ago and loved it.  It's like a diary, that people read.  It's a place where someone can get stuff out.  Write down their thoughts.  I made a couple of blog friends who I still communicate with today.  Two older men in the USA (one whose dog is on my new Just Chillin' album!).

Now, the question is - why would someone WANT to know the real me?  Why would a fan of Kath Bee want to know that she's not constantly happy, loving every minute of her concerts, travelling, writing (well, I do love that actually!) etc etc?  Well, that remains to be seen - I guess if people read it, then they want to know.  If you DON'T want to know what I'm really thinking or feeling, please don't read on!!!

What made me happy yesterday - my first day of my 100 - was this unbelievably gorgeous picture of this wee girl - and I'll leave it there for now.
