Blogging – Page 4 – New England's Narrow Road

I have found it difficult to find good blogs to follow, and I’m not a constant blogger. My life is pretty boring, my garden is small, I have no home or garden to brag about and mostly I find it difficult to post any kind of interesting blog post. I also spend most of my day working online which keeps me very busy.

I have found some nice blogs to follow and one of them is written by a writer, Sharon Lovejoy. She spends part of her time in her home in Maine – Sunflower House – and because she is a part time New Englander, we have something in common! Sometimes something small is just enough to find an online friend.

She has the complete opposite type of life than I do. She is constantly on the go. She has many published books and does book signings and appearances. She travels the countryside visiting her many friends and manages to find time to share her photos on her blog.

But what impresses me the most about this wonderful lady, is that she comes by my little nothing blog – and leaves me comments! I think it is so sweet.

Thanks Sharon! Visit her blog here………………………..

You check on your blog and some lovely person – a stranger- has left a bunch of wonderful comments. This is how God throws little blessings our way.

Today I have been trying to work on a new store I decided to open at Zazzle. It will be my 6th store there and I’ve only just lately been able to wrap my mind around some new fangled ways of creating items (everyone else has known these ‘secrets’ forever it seems) so I wanted to make Blue Hydrangea cards and stamps and hopefully have some additional income from it – eventually.

I worked yesterday on the uploads and started uploading the photos and graphics to the zazzle store and then…..No more zazzle! They went off line. Bummer.

So I checked my mail and found a message sent out from my old (old as in old friend! ha) Pastor in Florida about the upcoming message for Sunday. And I got sad thinking that I would miss it. I pictured all my friends sitting in church listening to a wonderful message and singing those songs I haven’t heard in almost 5 years. I saw that there would be a potluck dinner and an outreach to the homeless and I wanted to call and say I’d be there to help. But I am 1,500 miles away – or something like that.

I moved on in my e-mail and saw that a new person was following me on Twitter and this time it wasn’t some naked sleezy woman! (Don’t you hate those follows?) It was a person who’s blog I had seen a while back. I remembered the name – Red Pine Mountain – so pretty. She has great photos and stories too, but the nicest thing was that she left me a bunch of nice messages about my photos and blog here.

I don’t read too many blogs and I have to skip the “happy home and family” “wonderful life” ones for reasons I won’t bore you with, but I love photos and sometimes I just look at them…and dream. I think that Red Pine Mountain will give me some good dreams and I am grateful for her visit.
