"Britta's letters from Berlin"
my blog starts today under www.berlinletters.blogspot.de
It has the title: "A little premature, isn't it?" - that doesn't need an explanation...
See:
my Landlady in London has failed me. First she wrote: "Everything is OK - please book your flight" - which I did. Then she found a long-term paying guest, who stays from September 1st.
I am not angry with her, because I can understand that as an artist she needs the rent for living, and it is better to know you get it six months and not only one month - but nevertheless: I cannot give back the flight tickets, have no travel cancellation insurance, and cannot even give them to someone else, so on Tuesday they will run out.
Well - it is as it is. No use to cry about spilt milk.
Instead I have a little bit more time (though we go on holiday next month, too).
I thought a lot about my blogs.
I love burstingwithhappiness - poem and photograph - so I'll keep it.
My blog gardeninginhighheels will remain - but mostly get posts in the garden seasons.
But 'Youarewittyandpretty' - I wasn't that happy with it. Too long, too vague. So I thought: what do I really like?
I LOVE writing letters.
(I have a technical problem with Blogger's Dynamic View: I can only write posts for 'Britta's Happiness of the Day' by entering over the blog address of Youarewittyandpretty. So I will have to keep that blog, but will not use it).
Britta's letters from Berlin shall be short (hopefully), about my everyday life, sometimes with a photograph, sometimes without. Letters from Berlin - but not necessarily about Berlin.
Your comments will be your letters that come back to me.
I'm looking forward to them -
Wait, oh yes wait a minute mister postman!
Mister postman look and see
If there's a letter in your bag for me???

Hello Britta,
So see you in your new blog?
Tomz
Dear Tomz,
yes, just come over to berlinletters.blogspot.com - I would enjoy that!
And, at the moment, you would be my first male follower (on that blog :-) .
Delightful! See you over there!

Whatever works for you is best, dear Britta. It's perfectly fine to change your focus and direction from time to time. My blog started as a gardening one and became somewhat of a shape-shifter. My situation changed for a while, and I had not much room to garden at that time. I lost some readers and gained many new ones as I explored other ideas. That's what's important to me about blogging--the conversation that develops from each new post. Sometimes a comment from another blogger or an idea in someone else's post will become a thread of thought from which to construct a new post of my own or perhaps a fictional story.
I will join you on your new blog if that's where you will be most of the time from now on. It's your unique perspective on life, great sense of humor, and friendly blogger attitude that keep me interested in your posts.
My Britta! I'm just getting back to reading blogs and it seems everyone is moving! Well, this sounds very interesting and I shall be by to visit. A new blog. Exciting. (Though I never thought this blog was too vague. Your personality shines here!)
See up at Letters. :)
Dear Minerva,
just looked up the comments: thank you! I met you on the new blog.
Dear Walk2write,
just saw you commentary: thank you! The conversation with other bloggers is really interesting - and to see how it differs on my blogs. I'm glad you came over to berlinletters - and thank you very much for your kind words!
Dear Jayne,
now you are on the new blog - great! - and I managed today to get your blog-address on my blog-list. So I'll always see what's new.
