The Birth of a Blogger

One of the goals I set for myself in 2006 was to start my own blog. After a great deal of research and reading countless other blogs, I decided to finally take the plunge and get this puppy started. This is my first, official post in my first, official blog. I'm thrilled about already accomplishing this particular goal for 2006. Let’s hear it for my fellow "Type A’s" who LOVE to cross a task off of our “To Do” Lists. I’m excited about sharing experiences, quotes, photos, encouragement, advice and inspiration with my wonderful community of friends and blog audience. I've always been a writer at heart, so hopefully this new blog adventure will continue to propel me down the road to further developing my writing skills and maybe, just maybe, complete that book I’ve been writing for … well, let’s just say a very long time. Welcome!
