I only follow personal bloggers or and select commercial sites here on WordPress.com. I am here to blog about what I’m interested in and to make connections with real live people who share a passion for blogging like I do. I appreciate all who follow me and I celebrate our friendship and connecting through blogging.

Hey, Haven’t I Seen That Before?
When you decide to re-blog your own stuff or take an old post and freshen it up a bit that can be a good thing. An old post can be seen in a new light by new eyes who are just now discovering your blog.
When your creative juices are running low, you can find inspiration from things you have done before. Be careful not to get too repetitive but enjoy the process of introducing your followers to your blogging journey. I would advise doing a short introduction to the post you are re-blogging to set up context and to let folks know this is a golden oldie.
It can be fun to take a look back until new ideas for new posts come along.
Welcome Back Bloggers
Welcome back to all the long lost bloggers out there. Here’s to continuing to tell your story. Keep on blogging my friends. The blogosphere is better with your continued contributions.
Some Secrets To Blogging
I have been blogging a long time and I have found that the secret to a good blog is content, personality and honesty. People I think want to see something real and I try to be that in every post. Another secret is to keep on blogging…the more you do it the better you get at it.

Finding community and like-minded people can be a huge help too although you do find some folks who are heavy on the criticism.
Like anything it is good to make it fun and something that allows for expression and reflection. You might even change the world by your words and images. Blogging is awesome and I encourage you to be the star of your own blog.
Back In Black (with blue trim) On My Blog!

I am in one of those moods to be a little dark so I changed things again on the blog. Twenty Sixteen is a great theme I have used before that showcases posts and info quite well. You can customize it to be as dark or as light as you want. Part of me is feeling a little “dark and rebellious” so there ya go. Enjoy!
Two Years @ WordPress.com
I have been blogging here at WordPress.com for over two years now. Last week (April 9th) was the anniversary of me posting regularly on this blog. I have grown as a blogger since moving here and that is a good thing. Meeting people from around the world has helped me expand my horizons and I have enjoyed our shared interests. Blogging is about community and connections and of course content.
Here was the first post I wrote
