Imma Writer !!!

I went to a Writing Workshop on Saturday at the Rockingham Library in Bellows, Falls, Vermont.  It was about Creative Non-Fiction with Elayne Clift.  I realized while I was there that my writing has suffered so much over these last few years mainly due to non-exercise!  The two exercises we were asked to do, I had nothing when it came to read each of ours.  I kept starting and stopping and scratching out.  I think I was in my head too much when I really should have just written from my heart.  My latest attempt at this blog is to begin exercising my writing.  Maybe I will improve!

I am trying to get better at many things and also to begin doing things I enjoy even if I have to do them by myself because my boyfriend doesn't share some of my likes.  We do a lot together and I have to get used to the fact that most couples don't do everything together!  That also is one of my issues I'm working on.  It felt so good to go to the writing workshop and spend 3 hours with other "writers".  I've spent a lot of the weekend trying to get more organized in my home office.  I still need to purge so many little things and create a more simple, serene space and home.  I watched much less television.  I know that for my brain to not feel cluttered, I must have no clutter and must be organized and maintain that organization as much as I can.

It is getting late so I'll go for now.   I know no one is reading this blog yet, but I will try to write every day something and post pictures and try to post interesting articles, etc.  Maybe one day if I continue to be as consistent as possible, more people will find my blog interesting or informative.

Night Night

It's a new day!!! Let's make the most of it, shall we? :-)

Because I have had so many wonderful changes to my life happen over this past year, I decided to start this blog anew.  I had too many negative woe is me type posts and well, I'm not that person anymore.  :-)   I am going to try very hard to blog more regularly because I do want to document my life with my new love Gary Parker and my life here in Vermont living near my son, daughter-in-law, and grandkids.  Part of documenting this is posting photos of my family as well as the various projects I am planning to do around our home which will include repurposing, recycling, reusing types of projects so that I can continue my bohemian simplicity theme.  Thank you to those of you who follow me and actually read my blog posts when they pop up.   I sincerely appreciate you and hope to not bore you much.  :-)   LOVE LOVE LOVE
