Post #1…

Hello to all fellow blog writers and to all readers…

I bid you all a happy read and hope you will come back and visit me often Now it’s just finding the time and the material to post to keep you coming back.

So here I go…

Welcome!!!

Every person that decides to begin writing a blog has a reason behind doing so. Here is mine…

I received a text message late last week from a very close friend of mine who indicated that I apparently have a lack of ‘online presence’. Online presence? What is that? To my surprise this friend had googled me to see how often my name came up and he messaged me telling me that there was only one hit. The reason behind him googleing me is a whole other story, one that I may get to in time. However, his comment was quite interesting to me and after a discussion with him I decided to start posting again.

Now you may have thought “again” what does she mean by “again.” Well, many years ago this friend of mine (same as above) and I decided that we wanted to post our thoughts for each other and for others to read and comment on if they wished to do so. We constructed, or should I say he constructed a website where both he and I could separately post comments, stories and internal thoughts that showed up side by side on a website…it was titled “He Said/She Said,” his comments on one side of the screen and mine on the other. It was quite intriguing at the time but unfortunately did not last very long. The reasons behind that? I am trying to remember…

Anyways, the discussion of resurrecting the site was brought up but it became obvious to me that it would be better if I just post on my own and allow for people to read and comment. Managing a website can be very time consuming, so by posting this way neither one of us has to devote much time to managing. Works for me

I now hope that with this venture it will create my second hit when I’m googled and that my ‘online presence’ has now increased…

So here I post again.

Until next time,
