Must Love Blogs

It seems I'm having some trouble typing thoughts out in such an open forum.
My favorite blogs are funny, thoughtful, informative, have great pics, and, most of all, updated often. So I had an idea. I love to learn new things, especially creative things. If I were to pick up a brand new skill, and take you on the journey with me, it would provide a great deal of illumination and entertainment -probably for you as well.

I am an experienced knitter and crocheter,
I am a beginning sewist (better than being a sewer, if you know what I mean) and I would love to learn more about sewing, especially garments and purses,
and I take some passable photographs.
I learn quickly, and I can explain things well. What do you think? Any suggestions for a new skill I can learn, and use as a medium for maintaining our interest?
P.S. This is the best thing I've ever drawn. :) They were gifts from my dh when we were first dating.

Practically Perfect Blogging

It's always best to begin at the beginning. So here is a blog, begun on a whim, inspired by an offhand joke, growing by the minute into something that just might be a good idea. It's easier to commit to words when they're coming from the most perfected part of my nature. (That would be the sarcasm.) It's quite liberating to embrace practical perfection.
I can ruminate at length on the
subjects of motherhood, books and movies, crafting in various forms (with pictures!), politics, and life in general. And I promise to try to be nice.

Tonight, I will sleep.
G'night all. :)
