The
first time I was told to consider writing blogs in the A-Z Challenge,
I told my friend that I didn’t have time, didn’t know what I
would write about, and to leave it to others who were better writers.
Another friend reminded me that I always have lots to say (invited or
not), so what would be so hard about writing a blog. When I
finally did get started, it got my ‘old brain’ in gear, and I
started to enjoy the exercise of deciding on a topic for each letter,
and getting my thoughts organized on paper.
I’m
here to announce, unless someone decides to “shut me down”, that
I’m going to try to do the challenge all over again. See what
happens when I receive such nice messages from friends, telling me
how much they enjoy my blogs, especially the “Armchair Travels”
that I have shared. It goes to my head!!! No promises on how long it
will take, or if I will even finish it, but my head is filled with
stories that that have come from the deep recesses of my memory, and
I’d would like to have a reason to write them down. I never kept a
consistent diary (or now called a journal), but the thousands of
photos the I have accumulated over many years… some black and
white, some colored that have now faded, many slides that I have
scanned during the last few years, and now, with the digital cameras
and computers, there is no limit to many “memory-making” photos
that I have stored on my computer. And… all of them have been
safely saved on DVDs for the family, and on my external drives.
So…
brace yourself! Decisions can be made. I have decided to write some
more blogs, you can decide whether to read them or not!
