I think I was just so used to not having time to blog that now that I finally do have time I can't seem to use it. I hope you stay here with us!

I think the key is just do what you feel..if that is just a few sentences recommending a book...or a mention of a new restaurant...or what you are doing in the garden...don't feel like you have to write regularly, on regular topics or that you have to write a novel!! I'd rather see you pop in and out , then be completely gone.
