A Blogging Moment

Please excuse me for a special blogging moment. I hesitate to even mention the new movie, “Julie and Julia,” which I saw the day it was released, but I do have a new appreciation for blogging. I love Paris and could talk about it constantly. My family has always noted that I could talk to anyone. Sometimes it almost seems as if they mean that I could talk to no one but still enjoy talking. Which initially seemed to make blogging a perfect fit for me!
My children would watch me put so much thought and effort into a blog, and ask, “Mom, does anyone ever even read your blogs, other than us?” Of course, I would kid them and say, “My Public!” But we would all laugh thinking of me spending time jotting little thoughts into cyberspace.
Now for the good news… I do consider myself fairly Internet savvy, but I am not always up on the finer details. I actually have a company that I pay to post my blogs for me. I write, they post. Therefore, I did not even know that they had signed me up for Twitter. All this time, and I thought I was completely out of the coolness of Twitter. Recently, they told me I had over 200 Twitter followers! Of course, I am not completely sure what that means…but I realized that I did actually have readers! Then I was just told today that I even had some comments on some of my blogs. (I had to log on to a special page to read them!) I was so happy! However, I felt terrible when I realized that I had never responded to them. Please, forgive me. I will try to catch up.
All to say, I am freshly inspired to keep up my blog. We do have an upcoming trip to Paris that promises some very exciting new ideas with on-site inspiration and a presentation of the Spring/ Summer 2010 line of Rue Princesse handbags – an ongoing story from my blog. I think it will be fun…more soon! http://blog.parisambiance.com/2009/06/02/relax-and-enjoy-rue-princesse-is-coming-soon
