I resurrected my old original blogger blog a few weeks ago that I made up last year exclusively for Blogitive postings. It collected dust for a while after Blogitive changed their rules but I recently resurrected it as my soapbox and a place to put paid to post ads.  read more »

Sharon Hurley Hall tagged me a few weeks ago and now I think every blogger I know has been tagged so I'm going to reply without tagging and suggest anyone who reads this blog that hasn't done this meme considers themselves tagged.

Here are seven random things about me. If you'd like to participate, please post seven random things about you.  read more »
