glitter on the inside

A quick summary of the past few days. I:

• felt glimmers of writing again
• battled internally about whether or not it was a good idea
• was locked out of my old blog on Safari (took awhile to figure that bit out)
• decided to start something new
• polled friends on facebook about name possibilities 
• spent WAY TOO LONG figuring out how to set things up
• spent even longer putting together a header I was happy with
• consulted with a witch who told me I should be writing
• posted my first post
• almost didn't write my second
• someone asked why I didn't just stick with my original blog and keep writing there
• which was a totally valid point and so here I am, again 

Glitter on the Inside is a lovely name. Perhaps I'll use it for something else one day. Naming things is always my first step in a project. It felt good and also sort of scary to be thinking about creating this way again. I've had enough space and deep breathing in the years when I careened from project to project, too busy and overwhelmed back then to find balance or space or calm. The edge of too much was my uncomfortable comfort zone and I have zero desire to go back there. So, as I said in my exceedingly short lived blog before I came back here: baby steps.
