I don’t drink coffee

I have to say I’m excited about my blog. I’ve seriously thought about starting one for the past month. I have thought about it all last night. I have several ideas for topics and then I’ll just see where it takes me.

I’m hoping that the less-rigid structure of the this format will keep my writing flowing, much like the phrase “burning film”. When you burn film, you shoot simply to put something on film, like visual brainstorming. I do not expect that this blog will be the repository of brain droppings but I do expect to write about any and every topic I find interesting.

I don’t plan on writing every day. Two to three times a week is what I really expect from myself. Some weeks will yield more than others. I know this already.

This is like my new pet, a new toy. Can’t wait to play with it. I will find a better home for it. The blog should be moved to my Texas Golden Girl site very soon. That way I own all rights without question and can’t be kicked off for any reason (I’m paranoid).

Now, to check emails, then breakfast, then the rest of my day.

      Today is just a happy day. Sun shining, a sense of great change for the better is in the air. I'm trying to stay fluid and in the moment.

      Still plan on traveling. Book #2 is so close to being printed! I've got some new pictures to share, possible new paths to take. Making decisions that few have had to make before. There's a feeling of no net below me. For once, I'm learning to enjoy the feeling.

      For those who have wondered how I am doing on a personal level, things are better. I'm finding my feet and re-building. I'm learning a lot and hope that I am growing and moving forward. For what it's worth, I don't feel stagnant! I'm excited to wake up every morning. So if I haven't heard from you in a while, make my day and send a note! :)

      I've discovered the pleasure of working with Brian Gardner's WP themes. His free stuff is nearly flawless, his newly open-source Revolution is mind-blowing and he's actually a nice guy. Although his work is easy to use right out of the box, there's infinite fun to be had by customizing (i.e., destroying) it. As you can see here.
