For about a year I've been a member of Facebook. It wasn't until recently that I did much with it. I'm also on other social networking sites such as Classmate.com for all your past school chums, and Stumble Upon which is for social web surfing.
A couple of days ago an old friend from high school, Mike, sent me a note through Facebook and is now added to my friends. He has a MySpace page so that link has been added to my list of friends on the sidebar. Check his place out if you have the time. I found his writing interesting and moving.
Then I went over to get updates on my nephew's Facebook page and discovered that my niece recently joined. Now she and I are connected as friends. Wow, life changes fast doesn't it?
If that wasn't enough connecting, the prayer group I joined when I worked at Kruger sent out an "its a new semester" email. I popped back a note telling them how glad I was to see them in my inbox again. The group owner, Bob, emailed back. He's the choir director at Kruger and does a wonderful job teaching middle schoolers how to do outstanding vocal work. Turns out he blogs too so I've added that to my friends list also. You may notice it's titled in Spanish. He also teaches that.

Thanks Sandi! Yes it is amazing. I've found myself doing things I've not done in a while. And enjoying them.
I love our Scrabble games too. I need to work on my focus and planning while holding a conversation. Surely I can beat a 200 score. LOL
Ooh! Another award! Thanks! I'll be sure to come pick it up. :)
Hugs!
I have an award for you at my place...come when you can

On my way! Was just finishing the installation of SP3 for Windows. :-| I've no idea if it will affect things or how much.
Hugs!
Lee, it's good to see you enjoying your connections.
The president of my high school graduating class sends email updates periodically. Recently the people who still live in or near our hometown had a picnic at the lake. Three or four of the classmates have sent out pictures of everybody. It's a lot of fun to "see" people in this way.
It certainly is, San! And I loved seeing your kids through your eyes this morning reading your post. We surely get images of one another in so many different ways and from so many different people and places. And how often is the image we see a reflection of ourselves?
Hugs a bunch!
