New Kid on an Old Block

Starting a new blog seems like such a monumental thing to me. I could probably sit here for hours trying to come up with some grand way to launch this little spot in cyberspace and still not be able to string together a single sentence worthy of the occasion. So I won't even try.

I've been blogging for a few years over on Typepad. I recently took a long hiatus from all things tech--Facebook, digital photography, blogging--and though I enjoyed my time away, I'm more than ready to get back to it. Since it's spring and I'm making a fresh start in so many ways, I thought I'd make a fresh start with my blog, too. So here I am. 

Rather than continue with a boring, rambling introduction I thought I'd share a post from Typepad that brought me back to blogging ...

So I've been away for awhile--a good, long while. I wish I could tell you that I've been up to all kinds of exciting things. I guess I can say that some of my time away has been spent on exciting things--helping my mom start an online business, recharging my batteries, getting organized. But the majority of my tech-free time has been spent on simple, non-exciting things like sitting on the couch in the evenings and watching really bad TV, reading tons and tons of books, spending hours perusing magazines, and daydreaming about spring and all of the things I want to do when the weather turns warmer.


Even though I haven't been around much lately, I still think about my blog and my blog "friends" all of the time. I've missed you. I love coming here and sharing the little things that are important to me. And I love visiting your blogs and reading about all of the things--little and not-so-little--that are important to you. You all make me smile.

I hope you all had a wonderful winter. The season was downright horrible here. The days and days of cold, dark, dreary weather took their toll on me. But the birds are singing now, the grass is turning green, the days are getting longer and warmer ... I always feel like this is the true beginning of my year. I don't know about you, but I'm ready!
