I remember being on my Mediterrranean cruise for my birthday and looking for a place with a computer where I could post my fledling blog. At 65, I also published my first poetry book.<br /><br />Thanks to good friends, I've managed to get quite a bit done and it's been great fun and blogging has contributed a great bit to keeping me sane and to giving me some terrific friends, many of whom I hope to meet in India!RNSANEhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02841873957894861725noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6257034884908994204.post-51005298713973127632011-10-31T08:15:13.688-07:002011-10-31T08:15:13.688-07:00Bloggng for me is chronicling my grandchildren'...Bloggng for me is chronicling my grandchildren's lives for them to look back on someday and it's so much better than pasting pictures in an album.

Sorry, after South Dakota, Los Angeles is out.<br /><br />I still have problems with the program and my pictures fly all over the composing page sometimes. my composing page does not appear the same when posted and spaces be paragraphs drive me crazy.<br /><br />but it is fun and those who do drop by enlarge my life experiences, as does my blogging and reading.<br /><br />I particularly love personal stories of heritage and life experience.NitWit1https://www.blogger.com/profile/07035004840443397537noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6257034884908994204.post-39295425377189161892011-10-30T16:12:06.675-07:002011-10-30T16:12:06.675-07:00I agree - you learn so much as you go along with b...I agree - you learn so much as you go along with blogger.

I have learned to appreciate its beauty, but my husband who lived most of his life on the west coast desires greatly to return home. My pray for him, for us, is to find a vacation home in his desire area we can afford. We have settled into life here in Colorado, and have carved out a wonderful life.Step-parent's Covehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01066546132095754275noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6257034884908994204.post-42575317222006902332011-10-29T22:19:57.339-07:002011-10-29T22:19:57.339-07:00Nothing that exciting in Canada (also known as &qu...Nothing that exciting in Canada (also known as "The Great White North").<br />Started blogging in my 60s as health-recovery project. I'm not well-heeled, or even well-healed, but I'm still blogging. Lets me put my thoughts on paper. A good exercise for everybody.<br />And yes, I've met some wonderful people in my blogsphere adventures. I'll try to keep the conversations going.

I can remember the pen pal and it sure wasn't like it is today. You can be followers of anyone in the world today. I'm not so much in going to big cities for big events.

I have always tried to keep a diary or a log of my art projects, but I never stayed with it. Now that I have a blog, I love writing about my work. I like looking back and seeing what I wrote about 2 years ago.<br /><br />I hope you keep writing because I love reading your blog.Roberta Warshawhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09869094383053871169noreply@blogger.com
