Change can't be all bad, right?

When I initially started this blog (I've always wondered where that term came from) I asked for setup and ongoing advice from my nephew Peter.  Pete is an accomplished teacher, writer and blogger so I figured he'd be the go to guy for this adventure.

He was kind enough at least not to roll his eyes where I could see him (my family has a bunch of members who just love to put their thoughts in writing and here I was joining the throng) and set me on the right track.

One of the first pieces of advice he gave me was to set things up so that it didn't support  readers comments.  That way if any big meanies found and read my blog (it's not actually on any of the search engines although it can be found somehow I guess) they would be unable to leave hurtful comments and my delicate feelings would remain intact

As time has gone on and I've realized that I don't have any particular theme I have wondered if it is of any real use or interest to those who take the time to read it.  I know I wander from self sufficiency and soliloquies on the results of hurt feelings to topics totally unrelated to much of anything.

So here I am at the point (I always get there sooner or later) - I have changed the setup so that anyone who reads any of the posts can leave a comment.  Of course I would like glowing praise for my literary expertise (who wouldn't) but in the long run I just really want to know if those of you who read it are enjoying it.

Pete told me to just get out there and do it and have fun with it.  I think I've had fun but now I want to know if y'all have too!

Feel free to comment on any particular posts - good, bad or the ugly - it's all welcome!

  1. Yes...I do enjoy it!! Maybe because I know you so well and, forgive me, for forever. We played sort of mean saxaphones a hundred years ago. A lot has changed since then...change is constant -- for good or bad.

  2. Yes - I have been reading them and enjoying them. In many of them, I can hear you saying what you have in writing. There is always something in all of them that makes me smile.
