The pitiful beginning

Ok. So I have been thinking about this blog entry for at least a week. Finally I decide to just type something - isn't that always the way? Think think think - then just launch in and DO. Whatever will happen will happen. Que sera sera, and all that.

The 23 things - thing. I'm off to a slow start. Is anybody else?

So many other tasks at hand - weeding the library collection, preparing schedules, writing evaluations - these are important things that have deadlines. Trying to fit in the 23 things has been a challenge. First off, I need some quiet around me - it's often distracting in my work area. (Which is ok - quality chatting with co-workers is part of what makes the job so enjoyable) Secondly - I need a chunk of time, to proceed slowly through some of this new technology. Thirdly - particularly in case of the blog issue - what could I possibly write here that anyone would want to read!!
The solution? Items 1 and 2 fell (more or less) into place this morning, and the third- well Joanne this is for you!
I do read a few blogs regularly - mostly knitting blogs, particularly masondixonknitting.com, and am always amused by Kay and Ann's postings. I like their set-up - that they are writing to each other mostly and it's open to the rest of us. There seems to be a purpose there, and not just musings. (Which is what this seems to be deteriorating into).
So. Let's keep it brief, and start agonizing over what to say next time. In the meantime, will take a look at other 23-things blogs and try to keep treading water. Happy Summer!
