Then I thought, I like to talk. I mean really talk. Anyone who knows me knows I can’t say anything without being windy. Summarize something, yeah, not me. I don’t know what that even means. Twitter, 140 characters or less?!? Are they trying to kill me? So, where could I use bad grammar with run-on sentences and no one could stop me? My own blog! Hallelujah! I think I have found my calling.
I also have to give a shout-out to my son’s friend, Nathan for coming up with the name and letting me use it. I thought it would be nice to send people at my church homemade cards for birthday, anniversaries, get well, etc. He told me about his ministry at school with a friend named The Happy Card Encouragement Factory. I loved the name and asked him if I could use it for my blog as I am terrible with being creative on my own. Thank you again, Nathan! As you will see as time goes on, I am a very heavy scrap-lifter. Maybe because I see so many wonderful projects my brain tells me I don’t have to come up with my own. Well, that’s my story and I’m sticking to it.
I think this blog is going to be a little of everything. I love to work with my hands, be it with paper crafting or building my next computer. I just like to tinker, put things together. Maybe I could make a computer out of paper like they do dollhouses. LOL Now that would be the slowest computer on the planet but it would look good ;D
I have gone on long enough, the kids are getting hungry. I guess I will end with something my new friend Jin recently told me: “What you want to do with your blog is really up to you. Some people like to dedicate their blog to just crafts while others like to use it as a journal and post about everything that they do or experience. A new blog is a new canvas. Feel free to paint whatever you want there. It’s all YOURS. :)” Great advice, I think I’ll follow it………….
