Warm Welcomes

And it turns out, according to a Christmas card we got today, an old high school friend of mine has "tuned into" my blog. Welcome to D and P!

This has given me much food for thought today, for some reason. D and P (specifically D, the husband is who I went to high school with, over 20 years ago) are good friends. We haven't seen each other in years, and I dare say, may not recognize each other if we saw each other. But when we do have a conversation, it's one of those where we pick up where we left off. It's very comfortable. I am just kind of excited they found my blog.

Why? Because blogging, specifically family update kind of blogging that I do, keeps people in touch more than the Christmas card every year--which is what D and P and my family does.

So, apparently D and P "tuned into" my blog during the "episode" where I referenced making slippers out of maxi pads. One of my better posts, and I stole it! But what I find intriguing is the references that my blog is like a TV show, and that almost makes me laugh out loud.

I feel that way often. What saga is next? What drama are my kids going to blow out of proportion next? It made me laugh, I have to say. It feels like a soap opera sometimes. Sigh...

So, welcome D and P! Now I have a question.....how did you find my blog? That is a mystery to me! But I am elated that you did, for sure.

But nonetheless, I hope you get a chance to post some comments, check out my friends blogs, etc. I know this sounds cliche', but when I need a good laugh, I click on the blog "It's Lovely, I'll Take It" about really bad real estate listings. If you thought the maxi pads were funny, just keep clicking through her posts. Oh my word!
