Confessions of an Oxytocin Addict

Over the years, I have created and posted to over a dozen different blogs. Many of my blogs are more idea than substance, perhaps only a title or a single post or two, but several are extensive with lots of information, stories and photos.

My blogs have generally had one of the following three purposes:

• to post photos and stories from a trip
• to post random thoughts about things I am passionate about
• to plan a trip or do another activity with others

My hope is to use this post as a place to collect links to all these former blogs so that I can see and enjoy them. In addition, one or two of my family vacation blogs are ones that I would like to migrate to another format so I don’t lose the photos and stories over time.

Bottom line is that I have a very busy brain and writing helps me stay centered in all that cognitive chaos. Blogging is one outlet for that energy.
