About the new blog
Good morning~
Thanks for staying the course with me during this transition. While it officially launched last week, Life Lines is still a work in progress.
Created in 2010, this web site was first introduced as Cindy La Ferle’s Home Office. I used it regularly until I started posting my photos with inspirational quotes on Google Blogger. Due to recent changes at Blogger, however, I’ve returned to this web site. My son migrated the material from Things that make me happy — and coached me on revamping this site’s design. If you look at the Archive section here, you’ll find earlier posts dating back 12 years! (Some were so awful or outdated that I had to delete them.)
A few housekeeping notes: If you’re reading Life Lines on a cell phone, you’ll miss a few of its special features. For a full tour of this site and additional content, please take a look on your laptop or desktop monitor.
Thanks for visiting, and I hope that each post will inspire you or enhance your day.
~Cindy

Enjoyed your journaling class at the Clawson Library. Lots of great ideas and I’ll be checking out the books that were recommended. Thank you!

Thanks for being there, Denise! Keep in touch with me, as I might have news soon about an essay class. I think you asked about essay classes.
