THAT WAS JUST TOO EASY!

Apparently I have a blog now. I filled in a few spaces, clicked a few things and suddenly "Congratulations! You have successfully created your blog". Damn Skippy, had I known it would be that easy I would have done it ages ago.

I have been in heaven since I discovered the world of blogging. It has been such a joy to visit the blogs of all these wonderful, creative, artistic, generous women (yes, I know there are wonderful men blogging too I just haven't visited them). I find a blog that touches me, then I visit their favorite blog friends and then their friends and on it goes. It's almost overwhelming, but I love it. No, actually, the better word is intoxicating, I almost feel tipsy after a blog binge. One of the things I love about it is this amazing sense of community, a meeting of kindred spirits. I am touched, and yes, a bit envious, of the stories of friendships that have been started through blogs. Some of these lovely people do meet face to face, others not, but the connection and the caring is deep and strong. I must admit when I first heard of blogging I thought of it as an activity for loners and recluses, those who were afraid of or uncomfortable with real social interaction. How silly was I? I am so excited to start my own blogging adventure! I look forward to the journey and do hope that I'll have some company along the way. I'd love to hear from you.
