My husband discovered my blog last week.  (waves at hubby who is certainly reading this)  This space wasn't exactly a secret from him, being in a public forum, but I certainly didn't tell him about it.  I wrote things here that are embarrassing to me and to him, and dear, I apologize for that.  I love you very much.  I've deleted some of those entries and I'll be deleting others soon.

I wrote here month after month as a way to work through problems, have some fun, share with friends, and just to keep my writing skills limber.  I enjoy putting electronic pen to paper and unfortunately those close to us are the subject of much writing...both biography and fiction.  So dear, know that I love you and that you are the crucial part in my world....and know that I love you more than anyone or anything. 

When we talked, he told me, ""I'm glad I'm not married to an author....I don't think I could take that."  This is rough enough for him, reading thoughts that were never meant for his eyes.  Dear one, you are always welcome here, when you enter this forum you will be my honored guest.  Always feel at home in my thoughts and in my heart.  What will be splayed out in this blog is for all to see, but most of all you.  Please read, enjoy, and comment.  I hope I never make you cringe with this blog again.

Gandalf warned me....he said that if entered Second Life I could be sucked down the rabbit hole never to return.  Yes I have been sucked down that rabbit hole, and yes I spend way to much time on Second Life, but this blog entry is proof that there is life after Second Life. 

My real life continues: raising daughters, giving sermons, working for the dreaded law office.  I still go to operas, symphony, and chamber music, and I still find time to read books (the novel 2066) right now.  But I have missed my daily blogging and my MSN friends.  It seems that my fingers can still tap a keyboard and my mind can still put together a coherent sentence.  Hopefully I will find the inspiration to return here again and again to explore and share the goings on in my life.
