I just now noticed that this little blog thing of mine, which I started in 2005 (I accidentally deleted it in 2007 and had to start all over), finally made it to over 100,000 views!
Wow! I am so surprised, and at a loss for words
For the few of you who read this blog . . . thank you so much. It means a lot.
I took up writing this blog at the suggestion and encouragement of Melissia Mason, a communications and social media expert and a very good writer in her own right. We were on staff together at First United Methodist Church in Grapevine. She got there a few months before I did. When she asked me to write a blog, I had to ask her what a blog was! I have to give credit where credit is due. Melissia took the time to explain it and gave me the info I needed to start. I think she knew I would enjoy it when I took the time to focus on it.
I don't really have an agenda for writing this blog other than it is very therapeutic to do so. The more I write, the more I'm dealing with . . . or conversely, the more time I have to write. The less I write means I am very busy with church, singing, and family stuff. I'm churches I'm serving now have very strong lay leadership. I actually have a little more spare time than I've had in the past.

I recently decided that I would make some of my spare time available for writing. I always enjoy writing about music. I enjoy writing about new ministry ideas, and I enjoy writing about our occasional travels in our camper. I will begin posting some pictures as well. I've actually started carrying a camera in my day bag again.
I think I can easily generate at least 2-3 blogs entries a month.

Let me know what you think.
At my current pace, I should reach 200,000 views at age 75!
Hey . . . keep making music where ever you are!
