Thank you.

When I started blogging in 2009, my mother and mother in law had just passed away, Twitter was 3 years old, Facebook was 5 years old, Tumblr was 2 years old and Pinterest wasn't born yet..:) The big bloggers of today were yet to be discovered. Scott Schuman and Garance Dore my early idols and among the first to lead the way have reinvented themselves in new ways and we must too.

It is 2014 now, technology has leaped and I have leaped too. I changed careers last year and I am in love my new world of New Media and Web Design. Sometimes it takes a long time to find your true calling, I have found mine. Blogging in 2014 is big business, bloggers are "a dime a dozen" now, even Gwyneth Paltrow is a blogger ( love her blog GOOP) but, some normal, hard working amazing ladies and men have cut through the masses with their unique voices and amazing talent and have achieved monetary gains for all of their hard work. And blogging is hard work. I applaud all of them and invite you to look at a budding talent on the way like Ashma John of http://online-runway.com/

Technology and media is changing daily, and I must do the same. I can no longer devote daily time to my blog, take care of my family and run a business. I need outlets which would require less time, like Tumblr, Twitter, Instagram, Pinterest and Facebook ( Deeg Consulting and Passport To The World). Change has come.

I would like to thank all of my friends who supported my blog over the years, my friend Tracy who wrote unselfishly for the blog, " Dispatches from London" and Shelley who always gave wonderful advice on the blog. I would not be here without my 'village" of wonderful friends. I would like to thank my friend John H who led me down a new path as I was changing careers and kept this mind from falling off a cliff. Thank you John!

Thank you to everyone who read all or at least one of my stories from far flung places like Poland, Australia and Argentina. Thank you, Thank you and Thank you!!!!
