Delayed Beginning

I was seeing RED Monday afternoon--not because a tow truck driver had decided that he would not allow me to enter the lane he was in--even though there was plenty of room. I stopped when I realized he was passing me and returning to the lane--but he plowed into my car, scratching the front of the driver's side for what seemed to be twenty minutes. Yes, it was awful--but my greatest regret was that I missed my blogging class!

Friends and family members blog, and I've always thought it would be the perfect forum for me. I often write loooooooooong letters to my Sunday School class, and I suspect that they may moan when I write that "I've had an inspiration." Although they are not really obligated to read my e-mail, it is sitting in their mailboxes, and they can either ignore it, delete it, or read it. If I post my inspirations to this blog, it will be their choice whether they read my posts or not. I like that!

Hmmm . . .I would like to write a blog that compels the reader to respond. Do you already have favorite blogs? What topics cause you to write? Do you have sources for your own blogs? Do you think anonymity is important?

I'm looking forward to hearing from someone--and I can't wait to get to class on Monday. What wonders will I learn?!

  1. I have a personal blog that I enjoy more that any of my other blogs. This is where I mainly post updates about what my children are doing for my family to ready and share in. One of my great aunts lives in Miami and I print my blog every so often and mail it to her - if you can believe that! She has no computer. I was happy to learn that she had spent time reading it to her daughter as she was in her final months of a serious illness. She told me they loved reading the stories and enjoyed a laugh together at my attempts at motherhood.

  2. Hi,

    I am new at blogging so this is all very neat, I just don't want to say too much, because I may say the wrong thing. Glad you're okay. The class is a great learning experience.
