Thank You, Thank You, Thank You

Just a note to thank all of you that view my blog! Special thanks to California, Alabama, Georgia, and South Carolina for the the most return visitors! All I can say is somebody in Alabama really loves me!! Lot's of return visits from the Birmingham area, as well as Athens, Ga and Columbia, SC. I've had lots of other visits from folks on the east coast, so thank you too!

I also want to thank those in the Philippines, Germany, Israel, Canada and the UK. I don't know how in the world you found me, but thanks for reading and returning often. I know some of you just stumbled upon my blog, but there are others who want to catch a glimpse of my life through this "window" to my world. You are always welcome to look, read, and comment.

Thanks again for the support. It makes me want to describe my view of this great journey. Hope you like the details. :-)

Emerging from the Corner

I'm no prolific writer, I can tell you that now. But I do experience a constant stream of dialogue in my mind. I often pen down the dialogue on the imaginary pages of my mind, but as we all know, those pages are never read by anyone else. So, I decided to actually take a stab at this modern notion of blogging. No, it doesn't replace the feel of a hardback book in your hands, but let's face it; Jane Austin would have risen to greater levels of fame if the internet had been available in her life time!

I love to write. I'm not the best, but expression is a passion for me. I've tried keeping journals and failed miserably. That clean sheet of paper invokes so many thoughts. The crisp white paper screams, "Create me! Make me something worthy for the eyes of the readership!" It also says with snearing glee, "All those ideas are much better in your head, aren't they?"

My biggest drawback to journals is the physical act of writing. My handwriting becomes sloppy after a short while (arthritis-and at such a young age!). I ashamedly admit, though not as "romantic" as beautiful cursive handwriting in a tea-stain colored journal, pecking on the keyboard is the fast track to expressing your thoughts.

So, here I am. I'll save the introduction and personal profile for another blog. I just wanted to announce that I'm emerging from the corner. And from the pages in my head.
