Helpful Bloggers

Another busy couple of days lately. I feel guilty that I've read some blogs and haven't left comments, but time keeps on slippin', slippin', slippin'' into the future ... uh oh....where did Steve Miller come from and why is he humming in my blog?

Back to seriousness, or what passes for serious with me.

If anyone reading is new to blogs or approaching people online, I am here to tell you that the internet is full of wonderful people. Sure there are creeps, but you find them walking around everywhere, maybe even a few houses away from you. I'm not saying publish your address and invite a stranger to your home, but there are many more good, even great people, all over the world than bad. The bad ones just get the big press coverage.

Six years ago on Halloween afternoon, I met two women from a message board that was part of HGTV. We met at a restaurant for lunch. To be honest, we didn't become best friends forever from that meeting, but we enjoyed our lunch. It was good to put faces with names. If anyone was frightened, it might have been them. I wore black and had a necklace of small pumpkins and candy corn charms.

Now that I am blogging, I have asked for and received advice many times from helpful bloggers. Recently I contacted Kimberly Crawford at For the Love of Paper and asked her if she could recommend a paper cutter because the one I had left a lot to be desired. She gave me a few suggestions and I am now the happy owner of a trimmer made by Making Memories. Hopefully it will get a good workout this afternoon as I finish up Halloween projects.

If you enjoy paper crafts or would just like to see what this talented lady has done, visit her blog for inspiration and tutorials.

Gotta go now. Steve is back serenading me. It would be rude not to groove.
We've been workin' so hard, We've been workin' so hard, Come on baby, Come on baby let's dance....
