Goodbye Facebook, Hello Blogger.

Does anybody read my blog? I doubt it, however I don't care. My blog will be my main internet presence.
I'm done with Facebook, every time I get  on Facebook I am disgusted with the selfish inconsiderate posts. I end up playing the compare game because so many people are "fakebookers" what I mean is they make their lives seem completely different then whats really going on, very few people are truly genuine on Facebook, however on Blogs people seem to open their hearts a little more.

No I will not completely leave Facebook, as much as I would like to shut down my account and never go back, I do a lot of business through Facebook, I plan on keeping that form open and will pop my "face" in every now and again.

I do tweet. follow me @ishigotsch I like to tweet, the idea that someone important somewhere may read my thought is kinda exciting.

Point is, I'll be blogging my opinions, pictures and stories way more often then I am sharing them on other social medias.

So back to my original question does anybody read my blog? I guess if they/you are curious what is going on in my life they/you will, that or call me or better yet stop by sometime I'd love to catch up, but if your life, like mine is super busy, I understand if you're keeping up with the Gotsch's through blog!

So a few things for those of you who are not familiar with my personality or writing style. I am sarcastic, I will be honest, I do get sappy, I do/will make typos ( I try not to, but when I only have 5 minutes and I want to vent, well... it happens.) and finally I will NOT cover it with pink daises to make you feel better, if its shit, I'll say it, if I'm sad I'll share it, so naturally when I'm happy, its truly happy.

Looking forward to blabbing... I mean blogging.

ONE LAST THING- for those who only stay in contact with me through Facebook...
(You know who you are!).... I will post that I updated the blog so you can see, maybe not every time but occasionally.

Dear Grandpa.

Dear Grandpa,
I love you so much. I will miss your stories, your facial expressions and your wisdom. I will always remember the way you treated the earth with such love and kindness. I will teach my children the importance of all living things because you taught it to me. I will look for the beauty on earth and rejoice even in the smallest rock. 
I know you will continue to watch over me, and when God see's that Ben and I should have kids you will watch over them as well. 
I'm no longer afraid to speak my mind and to let my light and knowledge grow and shine, you always shared how you felt or what you believed and I hope that I can too.
When you were in the hospital and I saw you there so weak. I could look in your eyes and see the strength that you had always had was still in you and you weren't weak you were humbled before the Lord. I know you have a greater responsibility in the next life. I am in awe at the peace that I have and the comfort the Savior has given me to know that I will be with you again, that I will get to feel your scratchy beard on my cheek as you hug me once again. 
Thank you for the many things you did for me that I'm sure I never even knew. Thank you loving my Grandma and Mom. Thank you for being a Dad to my Mom so I could in turn have an amazing Grandfather. 
Thank you for teaching me how to work hard and help others enjoy their families. Thank you for the jeep and the blessing it was for me to have a vehicle down at school. Thank you for bailing me out in hard times without me even asking, and helping me find my path. Thank you for believing in me, from the time I was a baby to pageants to college and finally when I decided to marry Ben.
I love you. I miss you. 
Love your higamire,
Ishi.
