What's this all about, Anway

I started this blog quite awhile ago, but did nothing with it, then I got serious about keeping up with my writing and posting regularly. Well, sort of regularly.
Lately, I've felt the blog might be going in too many directions, but then I realized that's because I go in different direction. Problem is, sometimes that might make it hard to follow, and so I decided to add a little focus. Remember, I said a "little". What I did for a start was I rewrote the little paragraph under my picture that's titled, "About Me", and now I feel better about the shape the blog is taking. The About Me paragraph is a much better description of where I am presently, and I hope give you a better understanding of why I write what I write. If it doesn't, that's okay because it's giving me a better understanding.
On a different note; in the event you think this is all about me, let me just point out it doesn't have to be. You are welcome to add to the blog. As a matter-of-fact, I encourage any feedback as well as an opportunity to hear your stories too. At the end of each of my posts, there is a comment link. You can click on that, and share your thought. FYI; your comment doesn't show up automatically but rather comes to me in an email, so that I can review it for inappropriate content. When I get the email, I approve it and then your comment gets posted.
One more point I'd like to make is that I'd love to grow my list of followers. More followers, means more feedback, more shared experiences, resulting in more inspiration for all of us and more motivation for me to keep going. So help me out here, when you read something you like, think of who else might like it and share it with them. There's a link for that, too.
Thanks again for following. If my blog makes you smile, my mission is accomplished.

  1. Hey Tomi,

    Your blog definitely makes me smile, and I do love the new paragraph you put under your picture, especially the "joy of playing outdoors" I love that you are taking time to enjoy the things you really love to do...I know I can get too caught up in work, kids and schedules, and use the cop out, "I don't have time to write, garden, read, hang out on beaches, and just generally enjoy the "joy of playing", cause I need to clean my toilet...yeah, whatever. Someone once said to me to ask myself this question when I am overly stressed about something: "In the light of all eternity, is this really going to matter?" If the answer is no, then I seriously need to let it go and stop the fruitless worrying.
    Good to see your post again...miss you girl!! Peggy

  2. Thanks Peggy! I love that question and will use it from now on, if I start to stress over the small stuff.

  3. Tomi, just wanted to say thanks for finding me. I hope my blog is an inspiration to you. I'm happy to follow you and help you get your blog on the right path. Your start sounds like mine, by the way. Slow at first, but now, after three years, it's going strong. Keep it up. Tell your stories. The readers will come. I'll be back to read more.

    All my best,
    Jackie
