The beginning...

So, I've been totally inspired by one of my coworkers to start a blog~ Thanks Casey. A blog about me-my faith, my family,  my crafting, my baking, my gardening, my decorating (or lack of), my teaching, my friendships, my ups, my downs - in essence MY LiFe.   Starting a blog was on my 2011 Resolutions List, however it never left the ground.(Ever had one of those resolutions?)  My goal is to start and  stick with it.  I've done the first and most difficult step I guess . I've created the foundations of the blog.  I've been told that writing is one of the best ways to vent, express, and become a better person, so I proudly  nominate MYSELF to be a candidate.  This blog will be a work in progress so don't expect perfection. I'm as imperfect as one can be even though I strive for perfection in various elements of my life.  Being technology challenged, this new venture will bring a lot of new knowledge, dead ends, and new starts. I am open to help, guidance, and encouragement. My mom taught me as a youngster that if you can't say anything nice, don't say anything at all and Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.  So those will be two guidelines to be respected on my blog when commenting.  With that being said... Thanks for stopping by.  I would love for you to become a follower and hang out with me as I begin this AWESOME journey.
