No idea how I didn't pull my hair out. :) Maybe that's where my need to organize everything to create came from. Hmm, nope. I remember doing the same thing when I was an administrative assistant before kids. Attention to detail and certain organizational gifts can do that, and it's fine as long as we're aware of it and it doesn't consume us or affect our lives in negative ways. This was a good read.<br />xoxoMarciahttp://marciaathome.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5681875145919050501.post-53635138243959595922016-05-11T17:12:12.354-04:002016-05-11T17:12:12.354-04:00I'm so glad I found your blog, Jeanie.

I love that picture of the two girls, it kind of reminds me of my girls - one blonde, one brunette. And that typewrite looks like a treasured antique.<br /><br />I wanted to thank you, Jeanie, for your thoughts on my post about my nephew, Matt. Still can't believe he's gone, and it's been a hard time for us all. Reading comments from blog friends like you surely brought comfort.

And those lilacs, they must be bursting out your way too, and especially on Mackinac Island! (spelling?)<br /><br />And my camera? It's not so little! I am learning to look for the light to hit in just the right spaces. Take for instance, the first photo of the lilacs in the marble urn. Out of about 8 shots of the same thing, that one had the best light! It's a fun hobby.<br /><br />OK! Get out there and enjoy.

You are ...Welcome to the world of blogging, Laura. You are truly in for the ride of your life.<br /><br />I started blogging back in 2005 with a camera that took such lousy photos you couldn't make anything out. Friends kept telling me I needed to keep a journal of my art I made, so I would know what worked and what didn't. I don't like to write because of my arthritis I've had since birth. But I've never had a problem with typing, nor narrative, so a blog was a far better choice and I didn't have a bunch of books lying around that were taking up space.<br /><br />The first two years were sporadic, but in 2007 I got serious, and now I post practically every day, although it's hard since I have a slow computer and an internet that is just one step up from dial-up.<br /><br />You take the most incredible photos, dear Jeanie. They always tell a story on their own, yet you add such great narrative, too. I'm so very, very glad I met you in blogland. You have certainly enriched my life, as I'm sure you have Laura's and others, too!Bleubeard and Elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10149710375520733752noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5681875145919050501.post-49286465355178534262016-05-08T07:32:52.127-04:002016-05-08T07:32:52.127-04:00Great post!

I look forward to reading many more of them in the future! :)<br /><br />My blog has come a long way since I started it just over ten years ago, and my only followers were my Grandma and my great-aunt. Plus, I've met some great people through blogging. Well, I haven't met them in person (which is a real shame). But I still consider them friends. I have met three of the people I met online in person (one of whom I later married). But none of those were people I met through blogging. Hubby I met through him meeting someone I babysat for in a chatroom, and me starting to talk to him online too. The other two are fellow writers, one of which I met through Goodreads, the other I met through a mutual friend.Victoria Ziglerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11872256336482196922noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5681875145919050501.post-2304021864174879762016-05-08T06:29:40.241-04:002016-05-08T06:29:40.241-04:00Good morning faithful blog pal!

I started in 2009 after my youngest daughter suggested I blog about my garden and décor. For two years I blogged for just my family and a few friends. I had no idea that people visited and followed blogs of people they didn't actually know. lol! Knew nothing about blog parties or hopping. I still remember the first time I had a follower I didn't actually know. It was a man from Vietnam. I actually thought my hubby was pranking me. Ha, ha! One day saw a blog advertised in a magazine. Hopped over and from there found a link party. After that my world changed. I have made so many sweet and wonderful blogging friends. Happy to have discovered you recently. I will definitely hop over and welcome Laura.<br />hugs,<br />Jann Have a Daily Cup of Mrs. Olsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15446091501170762899noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5681875145919050501.post-84979777481547131432016-05-07T18:13:34.235-04:002016-05-07T18:13:34.235-04:00Thanks so much for sharing your beautiful flowers....Thanks so much for sharing your beautiful flowers.
