overwhelmed and with warm, gooey insides
I just want to say "Wow." After all the comments on my last post I feel like I have so many friends. I never realized (and am in all reality still just beginning to grasp) how wide this community is. And how warm and accepting. It's like my own personal version of "Subterranean Homesick Blues" by Bob Dylan. A life inside of a life, where I have just pulled the string and it is beginning to unravel in wonderful and alarming ways.I want to thank everyone for coming by and reading what I have to say--and giving such wonderful and encouraging feedback. Truly and sincerely, Thank You.
To the person who requested the site name where I get my inspirational quotes just google "Kate Nowak" and you will probably nearly instantly find her 'blessings' website and it is there that you can sign up to receive inspiration in 30 second snipets. They go well with coffee in the morning, I assure you.
I am still a little bit retarded when it comes to making links on this blog. I am green in the ways of HTML. Forgive me. I will definitely read up on the "help" section of Blogger, when I am not using a hotel computer. Tonight's exotic destination? Redmond, OR--the Rama Inn. Even though it's a Best Western there is a bronze sculpture of Ganesh in the lobby and I found it fitting as he is the Hindi equivalent of a patron saint of travel.
Also..thanks to Meg and Karen for their initial nudge into blogging and continued support. You ladies rock the casbah. hard.
I will now leave you with today's inbox inspiration, "I am somebody. I am me. I like being me. And I need nobody to make me somebody." --Louis L'Amour
Maybe that's why my Grandpa always read so many Westerns.

I love your descriptive phrases. Keep blogging! The ins and outs of html get easier with time. I'll look forward to reading more from you!
I'm from Portland, too. Great to find a fellow blogger here.
Here's a link I use constantly for HTML help:

You're doing great!
Adding links to a Blogger post is really easy. Just find the site you want to link to, highlight the URL and COPY. Then when you open your "create post" screen in Blogger, click on the Link icon in the toolbar (to the right of the Text Color one) and it will open a hyperlink window. PASTE the URL there. BUT, one thing to keep in mind...that Link window already has "http://" in it...so make sure that when you PASTE the URL that "http://" isn't in there twice (happens a lot). If it is, just delete one of them--otherwise your link won't work. Happy blogging!
Gosh, you're doing so great -- definitely a writer in the making!
Gonna keep coming back...
There's a movie quote website called 'Reel Life Wisdom' that offers daily inspirational quotes from the movies.
