My Blog, My Friend

Now that I have a place to write, I do. I used to think and talk all the time about how much I wanted to be a writer. Neither of those activities constitute writing, however. I am thankful that now that my amazingly talented Sweetie, Scott, created this blog for me, I have the ideal place in which to express my feelings and exercise my writer's muscles. I am a writer now...I write nearly every day because I have an attractive and meaningful format in which to do so.

Now that I have a reason to write, I do. I love the fact my mind effortlessly adopted the habit of thinking about topics on which I'd like to write. I appreciate what having the anticipation - on a daily basis - of expressing myself in writing has done to enhance the way mind functions. I've reached the point where I feel a day is incomplete without some time spent intimately with my keyboard!

My confidence is increased because of the encouraging feedback I've received about my writing. I appreciate the thoughtful people who have made such complementary comments on my writing! These comments mean so much to me...I am thankful for such generous praise! I have heard from them that I am an excellent writer, and that I should write professionally. A few have even suggested I write a book, and to that I respond, "From your mouth to God's ears!"

My world is bigger because of the lovely people with whom I've come into contact through our shared interest in blogging. My world as a daycare provider is rather small, which is another way of saying, "I don't get out much!" My opportunities for meeting like-minded people in my current situation are limited, so it is absolutely thrilling to meet fellow bloggers and blog readers who enjoy writing, writing about writing and reading what I write. I am thankful for all of you, too!

So, to illustrate just how thankful I am for my blog, I am going to blog it silly, especially this month!
