Inspiration..... Or perspiration.....

I used to be a blogger.....

I'd blog once, twice, sometimes even three or four times a day, I had THAT much to say.

But about six months ago, I quit. I started a new job, and I was always tired and I couldn't really think of anything I wanted to write. But in the last week or so I've been more inspired to write again.... So I thought, fresh start.... Fresh new blog. And ta-da! You have A Violet Among Roses.

The name was spur of the moment thing.... I always used Violet as my fake name at bars when I was younger, I even had a whole bio worked up for her. She was a paralegal from Georgia who was always in town visiting a family member....

But now.... It really feels like I am a Violet.... Among Roses.... I'm bit quirky, tend to do my own thing and really am heart am just a bit of a hippie. Though I like to bath and all that.... ha!
But living in Houston, I feel like I'm surrounded by a bunch of trendy wannabes (a.k.a. "The Roses"). Hence my blog name..... :)

I plan to take the lessons I learned from my old blogs, things I've learned in my life in general and apply them here.... While giving my opinion on anything and everything... And sharing what may seem like TMI to some.... But isn't that sort of the point of blogging? To share knowledge? State an opinion? Or just plan say whatever the heck you want to?

I've got a lot of stuff I want to talk about but I think for now, this will do for a first blog.... Don't want to overwhelm (or underwhelm - or just plan whelm) anyone the first time out of the gate.

Later.
