And so it goes

It's a little dauting sitting down to write my first blog. That blank white rectangular box staring at me and I'm thinking, will I have enough blurb to make a dent in the gaping white hole. At least a white hole is different to the proverbial black hole. You know that one at work that everything disappears into never to be seen again. Enough rambling about holes.

I'm sure you are wondering why I chose the name 'Jen's Place' for my blog.  It's not only where I am physically which can be home, work, in the car, out for lunch or dinner but also where I am emotionally and spritually.  Being on the plus side of 50 I have had many experiences both good and bad, and gained knowledge that I will share as I get more comfortable with this writing gig. 

Emotionally I'm in a good place for now. It's been a long journey and I'm very happy on my own, doing my thing now.  It's liberating to be able to go out for dinner, shopping or catching up with friends or family whenever I want to. It's also great to be able to stay home and recharge the battereis if needed without any pressure. It sounds a little selfish and indulgent but after many years of being there for my family I am enjoying this little bit of freedom. My kids say I have a better social life than they do. 

I'm looking forward to sharing my thoughts and experiences and hope that you enjoy my journey as I gain more confidence in putting my ideas into words.
