Welcome!

To my shiny new blog!

I'm proud of the writing I did for the past three years at Babble, and there is a link available to Holding Down the Fort above my blog roll in case anyone wants to check it out.  Leaving Babble was not my choice (and if anyone wants details they can email me directly since I don't feel like devoting any time to that here), but I'm excited about this new space.  It's mine in a way that my other blog never was, to change and do with as I will.  I feel like I have a new toy!

It will take a little time to learn how this toy works however, but soon I will have pictures up of our recent trip to the cottage, progress on my latest violins, and a look at what my kids are up to.

Thanks for reading.  It's nice to have you here.
