New year = new blog - why? Frankly I got bored with the other one and it was time for a fresh start. I hope this blog will be different - of course pointless ramblings will still be its focus - but I hope to be less censored. You see I was always afraid of who might be reading, there are the obvious people that I've told about my blog and then there are those who learned from others and well I'm getting tired of keeping track of what I can and cannot write and who I can and cannot write about! I suddenly find I have a lot to say. So I'm throwing caution to the wind this year and I'm going to write about whatever I want and whoever I want (of course names will be changed if necessary) because this is my blog and my life. Welcome!
What to expect : everything - I can be completely random at times but I do write frequently about school, working in Egypt, books and my love for fiber arts - because well those are major parts of my life. Oh and please don't be afraid to leave comments - it's nice to know from time to time that someone is reading.

I know what you mean about censoring. Hopefully this will be a place for you to be you. I try not to let my family and work mates know about my blog, although a client found me and he and his wife check in periodically. I try not to let that hinder my ideas and openness. Welcome to 2008, lets hope its a good one for all.
