I guess I will always notice grammer to some extent, not to criticize but because it just makes it easier to read..at least for me. Mostly, I like capital letters where they are supposed to be and sentences that end appropriately. I make mistakes. We all do, probably because we don't write enough.

I hope my blogger friends understand. If I had to worry about that every time I post, I would never take the time to write anything!!

It's happening to me too. Blogging has released this in me and it's a big part of my life now. I also have notes scribbled on the backs of envelopes as reminders of things I could post about. Plus it pushes me to use my camera to record just about everything of note I see in my day.Joannahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16449827163911239893noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7776413991690288441.post-57599078933759313372009-08-27T08:47:01.376-06:002009-08-27T08:47:01.376-06:00Laura, I've also been thinking lately about wh...Laura, I've also been thinking lately about why I write. I mean sure, partly it's because I am not working at the moment so have time on my hands:), but in the end, I agree with you. It's for the writing. Sure, I have other, hopeful goals. Which I will move toward in little steps. But really, it's to write and hear what other people think.
