Day 1: Introduce Yourself

Today’s assignment: write and publish a “who I am and why I’m here” post.

I’m not one for following directions.

Kind of a know-it-all I guess.

Especially dangerous after I read the For Dummies books. And then of course there’s the Net.

But when the WordPress tells me there’s some million odd number of us on here, and that you can be a Hero in thirty days, hey, who am I to scoff?

I’m not after the hero status. See, I’m already one of those.

Yeah, that’s right. I’ve got my own little following. Not in the way you’d think though. Not the click, share, post kinda follow.

No, my little fan club’s a groupa four and they’ll be the first to say that I’m the BEST MOM IN THE WHOLLLE WORLD!!. I’m not, but really, that is what they’d tell you. My big strong husband thinks I’m purty and is quite fond of most everything I do too.

So I’m not after THAT kind of hero status here.

Because even if that wasn’t enough up there, after all that love, I’ve got the extra sweetness of a handful of friends that I wouldn’t trade for all the money on this planet. They trod this place with me and they love me, quirks and all. A gal can’t ask for more than that right?

And as if all THAT wasn’t enough, I’ve got the safety of a Savior who took it all, quirks and wretch and mess and the nasty, and said “here, let me carry that for you”.  He thinks I’m somethin too.

So when I start up this little blog you see, and those folks up there, the ones that think I’m a hero? When they read what I write and they love what I write and they cheer for what I write? Well, I need to know how to do this thing well.

They’re my hero.

When I write it all because of the Savior that carries it all, I gotta do it right.

He’s my hero.

So I’ll go ahead follow some directions.

And I’ll learn how to use this thing here.

And I guess together we’ll get to know one another on this crazy planet called blogging and I’ll write about those precious people up there and the God that made em and the crazy critters He gives us to love and to laugh about. I’ll thank Him for it and I’ll tell you about it and that right there is who I am.

That’s who I am.
