Well, hello. Hello, welcome back. Okay. So I , me a dilemma, not really a dilemma, I've already made it my mind. It was a quick decision. I'm going to switch my podcast. If I can, back to more remarks. I just think it goes better with my Carol remarks blog. And it gives me the opportunity to talk about whatever I want, which is what I originally wanted to do. But then I start listening to all the air quote experts about how you should niche down your podcast.
And I shouldn't listen to other people. I should just do what the hell I want because it's my podcast. So anyway, that's what I'm gonna do. If I can, if I can get it back, I hope I can. So we'll see. Yeah. And then I have to see if I can get my Facebook page back or just not worry about a Facebook page. I don't know. I feel like I want to delete all of my social media channels and just keep my blog and my podcast and let people find me naturally.
Instead of me trying to push it out there via social media. Let me tell you social media reveals a lot about people and I don't know. I just, I just feel like I don't wanna be a part of that crowd anymore. There are some sickness in this world and I just don't wanna be looking at it anymore or reading about it anymore. I mean, maybe you wanna call me what, what is that say , put an ostrich with his head in the sand.
I just, I , I'm not living in the world that social media is putting out there and that the mainstream media is putting out there. I'm not living in that world. That's not why I , you know, I hear all these, you know, agendas that they're pushing political from everybody. And I'm sick of it cuz that's not the world that I see in my little, teeny, tiny, small world.
And I just, I don't see that when I go out and interact with human beings, I don't see what the mainstream media is pushing or trying to push. And I don't see what I, you know, what you see on social media. I don't see it in the world that I live in. So I just wanna get away from that. Anyway, those are my thoughts. So if I can, I'm going back to more remarks podcast in a case you couldn't tell I'm outside walking.
I am on my little walk that I do in the afternoons. I've been into walking a lot lately, instead of sorry, loud car, I'm gonna have to sell my garage gym equipment because I'm not doing the heavy weights anymore. I'll keep like the little dumbbells and, and the wall balls and the jump ropes and kettle bells and you know, the little things, but I need to sell my squat rack, my barbell, my barbell plates, cuz I just, I don't use them anymore. It's I'm too old.
I haven't been doing it consistently and I just don't wanna do it anymore. I , I like doing, you know, metabolic, metabolic conditioning, but I'm not doing the heavy weights. I'm too old. I'm 55. And uh, I can do other things with the dumbbells and stuff. So I'm gonna sell all that. Probably somehow some way my life is changing, which is good. It's good. And I feel happy about the direction I'm gonna go in. You know, I'm doing this all we and I like Allo , but I'm gonna tell you're straight up.
That's not my passion right now. I wouldn't mind having it as a side gig growing it and trying to have something to slide into laterally. You know, when I, when it's time for retirement for my real job, that would be pretty cool if I could grow it, but I'm not, you know, I'm not hot and heavy over it. I do like the products. I will use the products, but, and I registered for conference, which it was gonna be in Nashville in August.
I kind of regret doing that because I didn't need to spend the money and this no , it's non-refundable so if I can't go almost see if I can sell it or to somebody else I don't know, or just donate it to somebody that I don't know. I'm mad at myself. I shouldn't have done it, but a week from now. I could change my mind and be all excited about it and see that is the problem with me. I'm not consistent. I want to be consistent with something, which is my blog.
I've always been, I've always had my blog. I may not write on it all the time, but I've always had it. And I wanna concentrate on that. I watched the movie, Julie and Julia last night again, I watched it when I first came out into the theaters and it's about a real life story of this woman. I forget her name, but she lives in New York and she was doing , um, she wa she was a writer. She had written a book, half written and nobody wanted to publish it.
So she started a blog and where she cooked, hold on, I gotta walk by this dog . Hi . And she . And she decided to start a blog when blogs were kind of new back then, where she cooked 525, 524
Recipes from mastering the art of French cooking or something like that by Julia child. There's 524 recipes. She did in 365 days. And she blog about it, which turned into a book deal, which turned into the movie. So I've always wanted, you know, to do something with my blog. I just don't know what, I don't think I have a book in me. I just would like, maybe, I don't know, just to be recognized as a good blocker, but I guess I had to put good content out there. Right.
So that's what I need to concentrate on instead of getting sidetracked by social media and other little projects along the way, because I do like blogging. I've always liked blogging. I was been blogging since it first came on the scene back in the early 1990s. I know that sounds so old. Doesn't it? Golly. Okay. All right . Thanks for listening to me, listening to me ramble and think out loud on the podcast here on this episode. I appreciate you. Thanks for listening.
And you know, if you can find me on social media and, and gimme your feedback and tell me what you think. Okay. All right . This time for real. Thanks. Bye.
