did you ever 'meet' someone on line
who is just your kind of person ?
you love their style, their ideas,
just their 'way' of doing things ?
* * *
do you wish you lived closer ?
do you wish you could hang out together ?
* * *
i am engrossed these days in all things techy
and am revamping my website
and in small ways my blog
i have been wanting to get a
'blog roll'
(list of my favorite blogs)
added to my sidebar
time...time...time
the reason why i never get to it..
so i'm taking baby steps
***
to that end..
i am starting a new series
where i will showcase one blog at a time,
and then get them added to my blog roll
* * *
first up
old * grey * mare
her name itself intrigued me..
and then i was hooked by her style
then as i spent hours reading her blog
i find that she is living the life i want
in so many ways
we also have a lot in common
and it turns out she was raised about a half hour from where i live
crazy huh?
but now she lives in
henderson nevada
far far away
my geography is not so hot,
so i actually had to see how far it was
note : A ~ me
B ~ her (yes..if you read my trip to atlanta,
i am a driving fiend..haha
but this is just a tad too far)
why? you ask..
because she is
having a
gathering class at her home
and.....giving one spot away !!!
whoo hoo !!
its a
she's offering
projects, food, gifts,
and a house full of
snow and glitter and holiday spirit
doesnt it sound like fun..
well if you are in the area
go for it !
(i sure wish i could)
* * *
and....even if you too
live too far...
hop over to her blog
grab a cup of tea
and prepare to spend hours
indulging in
wonderful inspiration
* * *
ok..so now i have figure out
how to do the
'blog roll'
thing
I am sitting here with tears, yes real tears, streaming down my face because I am just so touched and surprised and honored
ReplyDeleteby your post this morning.
I was lazy coming downstairs even though the pooches were whining for me, and I was lingering under the warm covers, no heat on yet, and thinking about actually leaving the house today.
So it is nearly 9 and I just began my ritual of checking and answering all emails first and then running down my blog roll, checking in with my friends, and
WHAM!
I am gobsmacked by the sweetest post and the kindest words, and so I sit teary eyed, and full of gratitude, fitting for this week; and I am grateful, so truly grateful that a few years back I summoned my courage and began this blog adventure of oldgreymare that rewards me daily with fabulous, strong, endearing women that now bless my life.
Thank you my friend

A more creative, GIVING soul (of her talents AND herself), you will probably never meet. Lovely post for a lovely woman. Good luck with the blog roll...it's an "ADD A GADGET" on your Dashboard/Design thingey! :-) Happy Thanksgiving!
ReplyDeleteOh, I wish I was close enough to go!

I love Suzan's blog!
ReplyDeleteTo add the blog roll:
Go to design...layout...add a gadget...blog list and just click "add". Copy and paste the url of the blog you want to add.
Z is the best! We've been friends for a while now. I would love to go to one of her classes, but I'm in KY, just to far for me as well! Z sent me over to check out your blog, so glad she did!

ReplyDeleteWhat a very talented Artist, you made a wise decision to showcase her and her many talents!!!
Loving the new blog look and loving the Showcase Idea.
A fan always,
