Thing 4

I enjoyed reading all of the suggested sites because all of this is so new to me. I need all the help that I can get. For over 20 years, most of the writing that I did was hospital charting...just the facts,ma'am. My emails also did not require much soul searching. These exercise blogs should help me start thinking again.Commenting on other blogs is important because it connects you to other people with similar interests and opinions. Commenting also connects you to people with very different interests and opinions. Much can be learned from others that you would never have a chance to meet face to face. I get a feeling of connectedness both from commenting and from receiving comments. Life today is so fast that it is hard to have a decent conversation anymore but blogging and commenting is giving me the human connection that I am missing on some days. I left a comment on Tara Johnson's blog, Summer Marshall's blog, Kathie Terry's blog,A Teacher's Summer, Wendy's Wandering,FoodNetworkAddict,WeLoveIrishDancing. I am more encouraging and less opinionated in my comments. I have a hard time putting myself out there and would not want someone stepping all over my thoughts.
