Establishment


There are a couple of ways to use the word establishment. One is to define THE Establishment, which is a dominant group or elite that controls a nation or organization. I mean screw The Establishment, right?



The other definition is the one I choose to write about today:

es-tab-lish-ment

Noun

1. The action of establishing something or being established.

I, as a person, am established here on Earth as Erin Merritt. I’m also going to establish this new blog, “The E Word.” I didn’t want to start another Skinny Screamer and limit myself strictly to weight loss and other exercise shenanigans, although this iteration will include some of those elements. Rather, I just need an outlet. To be heard. To perhaps touch one person through honesty, raw truth, and self-deprecation.  So here it is – the establishment of The E Word.

I’m pretty sure that the shine is off the silverware, when it comes to “blogging.” The ship has sailed. However, it remains one of the best ways to express myself, and delude myself into thinking that people care, or will even read this drivel. It's been yet another rough year, and I just feel that sharing my triumphs and tribulations just might help someone else to be better, feel better, or just run in the opposite direction.

If you are reading, I’d love some suggestions of other E words to use. As always, The E Word will be Erin (me), expressing my love, anger, or ennui (a word to be used at a later date).
