Cobleskill Backroads, Watercolor
I recall writing that first post and how awkward it felt. There were so many questions at the beginning. Who was I writing to? Would anyone be listening (reading)? Did I really have anything to say that would be worth reading? Now, one year later I’m still writing on a semi-regular basis and the same questions persist. The thing that keeps me going is that the writing is therapeutic and I’ve “met” some wonderful people this past year.
A change to my blogging surfaced on February 1, 2009, when my post included a brief mention of the Eight O’ Clock Coffee I recently tried and found to be quite delicious. What surprised me was I actually got a response, albeit from my daughter-in-law, Calico, but a response nonetheless.
Inspired by that “nod” I decided to post something everyday, but it wouldn’t be long before I realized that an everyday post, plus a full-time job was unrealistic. Surprisingly, I was able to maintain that lofty goal for almost three months while only missing eleven days total.
These days I try to post three times a week if possible though I can see this month has been a little lean.
Anyhow! Thanks so much for stopping by to read and drop a comment or two from time-to-time.
I’m hoping this will be a year of changes with lifetime dreams beginning to take shape. As always I thank you for your friendship and feedback. Here’s to a word filled 2010.
Aunt Rainey,
Although I don’t post comments too often, or hardly ever
I do stop in from time to time to just sit back relax and read, catch up on all of the happenings of your life. The past year of writing has been great, keep it up!!!! We all enjoy it.
Love Jeremy
Hey Jer!
I wish I had a more exciting life to share, but as they say these days . . . it is what it is. I think that means life is moments - some exciting, some not. Being with the people you love is priority and living the life you’re meant to live. I’m all about trying to do that these days!
Love U!

Mom, it’s been a pleasure to watch you write what you feel. Another creative outlet for sure, we all need them. Keep it up. I can’t wait until you move, I bet your writing takes another creative leap then too. I am pumped for you and will stay tuned!
On a side note…
If paper beats rock, rock beats scissors, and scissors beats paper, what beats all 3 at the same time? Answer: Chuck Norris.
Hi there Lorraine ~ Can’t believe that it is a year since you started your blog. It made me go back to the very beginning and start again just incase I’d missed anything). Can’t express how much pleasure it brings and I regularly check for updates and any interesting snippets of news. Please keep it going. Lots to look forward to in 2010 by the sound of it. Fingers crossed for the move - all very exciting eh? Here’s to a great year ahead,
Val
Rainy,
