Gosh with all that's been going on I forgot to tell y'all (southern throwback) about my new addition. I am hosting my friend Dirk. (It's right there in my sidebar too.) His site is called "me as art" and he's new to the blogging world in general. It is a mix of his poetry and general life observations. Go give him a warm welcome. You know basket of fruit, plate of cookies or just a supportive comment.
Hosting is fun but I doubt I will ever reach Erika's level of hostingness. She spreads the blogging magic to everybody. That's ten there people. Ooops gotta new one for a pack of eleven. Is there anything she can't do?

PS Erika designed Dirk's site and then let me play with the colors. He did his own pic at the top. Truly a group effort. Fun, fun.
