Welcome to my first blog. I know what you are saying, where has she been? Well, let's see, probably the same places as some of you. Working all day glued to a computer screen and not wanting to sit in front of one at night. Raising gorgeous kids that I may only see for a few brief moments a day while we eat dinner or clean house or write lunch money checks or wash a load of underwear for the next day!
So sue me if I'm a little behind on the times. I'm here now. Thanks to my amazing friend Sara. She helped me get my blog set up so I could get over my writer's block. My writer's block of about 12 years. And I really enjoyed our "Blogging 101" session tonight. She is a third grade teacher, so she is very gentle. I must admit, I milked it a little bit. I let her navigate and push the buttons and show me where to go. It was very relaxing after a long day at work, navigating my way through the endless emails and excel charts.
This new world of the blog that she has shown me really has my interest picqued. I think I'm going to like it here in this world. Who knows, maybe I've found where I fit.Everyone is out here expressing their thoughts, some with actual humor and insight. You can read a long blog or short blog. You can read about someone who is like you, or someone who is very different from you. You can even quit reading when you're tired, and go to bed. Which is what I think I will do soon . . .
We've got a lot going on right now, my husband and I. Long hours at work for me topped off by my commute. Tired, achy muscles for my husband. And both of us with tired achy minds. But I felt almost like a third-grader as I stepped outside into a cool September evening to tell my friend good-bye. I told my precious husband we are blessed to have had her in our lives the past 7 years or so. Sometimes you meet someone, a person so wonderfully unique and thoughtful and funny and worthwhile, that it evens out at least a dozen poopers you may have in your life. That is my friend Sara. She is that person. She is amazing. She loves us. But then, that is what friends do!
