Whats a Blog?

I have a job now. But it doesn't start for a month. So what do I do with my relaxed free time (vs. stressed "job hunting" free time) for the next month?  Figure out what all this blogging madness is about.  Mostly this is another attempt at trying to organize my life - and keep all sorts of info in one place.  So if I had a blog, I would blog about my collection of recipes, my progress of half marathon training, my experience as a new nurse, my thoughts about faith, life and family, and any other hobby things that pop in there.  Here we go!
