“Enough Talk…Time for Action.”

I talked about starting a blog for a long time. I thought about it even longer. Then, one day I get an email from Missy who knew that I really wanted to do this…. The message simply said “Enough talk…time for action.” (With step by step instructions for getting started) The very same day…about six hours later I was on my way. Six days later, I emailed her and said “I love blogging.” She replied “I KNEW you would.... (She says risking sounding a bit like "I told you so"). I knew you would have great response, would love the writing, thinking, pictures, the connections, and the motivation to try new/different recipes and activities, the remembering, all that comes with documenting one's life. You have things to say, offer and give, and it is a perfect venue. Love, M” I may have done it eventually….however it would have been months down the road… thinking, over thinking, contemplating if I could really find anything of substance or depth to write about… (ha ha ANYone who knows me….knows, even tolerates…the fact that I was born with an insatiable urge to talk…talk…and talk...why not write…write…and write.) Life is fascinating…..and other people are interested in what you have to say. When I write on the subject of something as ordinary as what I cooked for dinner last night, and total strangers are interested, that is intriguing to me. So I write…Besides that, it’s a groovy way for me to chronicle our life…if only for my friends and family.
