Friday’s Sparkle….

Margene_sparkle

Ten years ago I discovered the world of blogging and I was mesmerized. My friend Anne, introduced me to the world of blogging all those years ago and through her links, I discovered a few more blogs. With each week that went by I found that I really looked forward to reading each and every post on these blogs…such a treasure! It was such a new way to share and read my love of fiber and knitting.  Back then, I think that I may have been following 10 blogs and one of those blogs was the blog of someone I so love to call "friend" now. 
Margene and the Zeneedle blog.

Over the years we grew up a friendship that I have grown to love.
I have visited her home in Utah and she has come to New England to visit with our close-knit group of friends here, and each time we visit, it's like we have known each other all of our lives.  It's a friendship that I treasure, along with a few other of my blog friendships.

Margene always commits to handwriting notes to friends in February and I love that I am a recipient of one of these notes most years.  Like Margene who says she has terrible handwriting (not so much), I have handwriting that is challenging to read as well, so I completely appreciate and love the effort that she puts into her February notes.  When I opened up the card from I received from her this week, I could only smile.

"Sparkle" was what I saw first and it did indeed make me smile. 

When I discovered the world of blogging, it opened up a huge new world for me living way up here in the North Country of New Hampshire.  Through blogging, I have met what I now consider to be my best and closest friends.  We have supported each other through the highest highs and the lowest lows and I know we will continue on doing the same.

Thank you Margene…you are a huge sparkle in my life and I am so happy to call you friend!!
xoxo

  1. We are all hitting our ten year anniversaries! (I missed my date.) Yours was one of the first I found, as was Margene’s. It has been a wonderful ten years. The best and the brightest!

  2. Even though we are far from each other we have many ways to keep in touch. I love writing notes even with my challenging handwriting. Writing is a more intimate act than is email, imo. I wish we had a chance to be in the same room more often. How lucky are we that we have been friends for over 10 years?! Love you!
