Join in

The new year is off to a rapid and fun start. I've decided to join the blogging The Artist Way bloggers. Of course, I'm still trying to figure out all this blogger lingo and technical stuff so I hope that doesn't hinder my progress with the AW. I have been really happy the last few days and I realized this morning it is because I set up my blog - finally! I've been thinking about it for a year. As part of finishing off the old year - goodbye 2005 - I read through some of my journal entries and discovered that at the beginning of 2005 I had the idea to create my own blog. Well, I've finally done it and it gives me a happy rush even though I have a lot to learn. I've been lurking - well reading many oh so many blogs in the last year and a half to two years. Some of these bloggers are also participating in the AW group. I've been too shy and cautious to comment on any one else's blog, but I can assure all the writers of the blogs I read that I have been inspired and comforted by their stories. I hope maybe by joining in with the AW festivities I will have a real opportunity to come out of the shadows and tell each and every one of them just how much joy and delight they've brought to my life on a regular basis. Eventually as I get this all figured out I will post some links to some of my favorite blogs and to Kat's Paws the central blogging hub for the blogger Artist Way group. Right now, as I write this, only my husband has my blog address, but that will soon change as I step out and join the AW group and my blog address gets listed. So, if you are a visiting Artist Way blogger - welcome and bear with me as I figure out how to do this.
