SylvieD

Ok so this is it – the little place I have been getting ready for the last week! I finally made the jump and went for my own domain.
I wanted to gather all the sylvied *bits* spread over the internet in one place. So I now have one landing page with a clear map of various places I am active on the net. I love this new blog which with the help of a few plugins should also enable me to introduce music to this site. I am really enjoying the freedom of WordPress.org so far!
Big thank you to @Kevindixie who even tried to teach me coding while asleep next to him…things could not get more exciting between us!

Blogging has become an important part in my life, I enjoy it as much as I enjoy reading or painting. I find it has a very soothing and sometime even therapeutic effect on me.

Whenever I finish a post I have a great sense of achievement, I dislike watching tv, I find it unstimulating so instead I choose to write or read blogs.

What has surprised me is my friends and family reaction. It is as if I had developped a disturbing fetish that nobody likes to talk about: “She blogs…I don’t know how she has the time to do it..isn’t it weird this blogging obssession?”

I can hear it out loud…they think I am sad and should get a life basically!

I don’t think many of my friends bother to read my blog which in itself really is not a problem. Amazingly I have picked up quite a few friends on my blogging journey, people whose blog I visit regularly, individuals that have made me laugh, think, cry and with whom I would have no problem meeting and have a drink.
