If you have any desire to see more of my face, and Jeanne (OkieJ)’s face, here’s your chance. Why? Let’s let Our Friend Drew explain:
Think about it for a minute. There’s the work you. The family you. The buddies at the pub you. The girls at poker night you. The I’m so tired I could cry you. The blogger you. The marketer you. The consumer you. The son you. The trying not to laugh during church you.
So many faces. All of them you. Each honest, real and unique. But each one slightly different because of the circumstances, surroundings, or people involved.
That’s what intrigued me about David Airey’s Face Behind the Blog post. Basically, he is reminding all of us that we’re more than the face we hold out as we author our blogs. He’s suggesting it would be interesting and insightful to share a photo of ourselves that puts us in a different light. That shows another face.
I was intrigued enough to go dig up some pics of me, to give you a better look at me.
You are used to this pic of me and the big roundtop barn:
And this is the way you see me in most of my videos and most of my days at the liquor store:
But sometimes I’m having fun with family, here with my sister’s boys:
Sometimes Jeanne and I are running off for a BPW Conference:
Sometimes, my husband and I share adventures in Africa:
And, sometimes you can catch me (and Jeanne!) all dressed up, even playing the Governor!
Stop by David’s post and meet some of the neighbors from this meme:

And don’t forget Drew, because that is where I saw the idea.
