It’s been over two years since I blogged for PBS New Hour’s Patchwork Nation project, representing Nashua, NH – a ‘Monied ‘burb’.

It’s been over seven years since I first learned how to blog while I was an employee of Sun Microsystems.  (It appears that the group blogs – Women@Sun  and the DogBlog –  I once contributed to are no longer online since Oracle acquired the company.)

I’ve been feeling the need to get back online for a while now, but couldn’t seem to find “my voice”.  I’ve started to tweet, but sometimes find 140 characters constraining! (@SandyBelknapNH).

Then it hit me…blog about something that I really enjoy.  Well, I picked two things!  1. Gardening  2. My dog, Grace.

For this blog, Grace is more than just my pet’s name.  There are so many beautiful  definitions of Grace. My favorite is: ” disposition to or an act or instance of kindness, courtesy, or clemency.”

So here I am, back online, blogging again (more than 140 charaters per post) and I can’t wait to share my perspectives about Gardening with Grace.

And yes, while ‘grace’ has so many definitions….my friends know that I just can’t help myself and will have to include stories about gardening with my dog, Grace, too!
