Bear with me

So, I'm new at this. Clearly. In its present form, this is not the prettiest blog you've ever seen, I'm sure. But I'm going to choose to learn and adjust as I go along so I can just get this thing going and get to what I really love to do - write. And yes, I feel a bit like a bear at a zoo with everyone staring at me, pointing their fancy iContraptions at me, waiting for me to do something amazing, and huffing and puffing if I don't put on a good show.

Do you know what I think this bear was thinking when I took this picture of everyone taking his picture? I think he was thinking, "Go ahead: stare, watch, wait. I'm just going for a swim...because I like to swim." That's how I feel about this blog. "Go ahead: stare, watch, wait. I'm just writing because I like writing." Don't get me wrong. I hope you enjoy what you read here - that it brings a smile to your face or a new perspective on some aspect of life. But know that this is my outlet, not award-winning, awe-inspiring, somebody-get-this-girl-a-book-deal material.

With that said...Welcome! Stay tuned. There's much more on the way...
