March is blowing it’s way in and making itself known with tree branches and debris blowing down the streets .  Even in the midst of the snow, gray skies and rain, spring will be blowing in soon.  Nature wakes up and begins the cycle of rebirth and renewal.  I love spring.  It’s such a positive example of change and rejuvenation.

With that in mind, I thought now would be a good time to make a change on the blog. I’ve been trying to figure out what I want to do here and what value I can bring you. 

This blog is supposed to be a create outlet for me, as well as a fun way to do an occasional mind dump.  So, I’m going to revamp the blog and bring a little more clarity to you and me.  It’s still going to be a creative outlet, but I’m going to try to make it more purposeful for you.

What I’m planning:

• Simply Clesha – My other life consists of a handmade aromatherapy bath and body business I started over 10 years ago.  Right now, I’m in the middle of getting it back up and restructured.  I thought a good way to save my sanity may be to let you know what I’m doing over there.  You know, it would be the stuff I can’t really post on the aromatherapy blog.  It may also be useful to anyone who is thinking about starting a business or interested in aromatherapy.
• More crafting! – I love crafting and this year I really want to do more creative things on and offline.  I haven’t been able to yet thus far, but once the dust has settled, I’m going to take my trusty glue out and get to work. Of course it will also include knitting and scrapbooking.
• Writing – It seems all I do now is write, read and write some more.  Most of it is mandatory for the business, but I still have fiction writing dreams and plans.  I figured I could still explore my first love here and document my writing progress (or lack thereof).
• Techno Babble – Since I love technology when it’s doing exactly what I want, when I want it to, I’m going to bring you more gadgets and techno non-sense to satisfy my techie cravings.
• Mix of crazy – Videos, wacky things I find on the web and other interesting tidbits.
• Philly Stuff – I’m also determined to get out this year.  There’s a lot to do in this fair city of mine and I’m going to take advantage of some of it.  Fun stuff on the horizon boys and girls.

Oh yeah, I’m also going to slap a new coat of paint on the walls and move some furniture around.  Might as well blow the dust off of this place while I’m at it right?

How was your summer adventures?

I’m all for debating and having a difference of opinion, but why would you think a gun is going to make your point clearer?  If you’ve done the research and reached your own conclusion, go with that.   Argue your point and raise all the hell you want, but do it without the threat of violence or blood shed.

From one Leo to another, Happy Birthday To Ya! (the Stevie Wonder version of course)
