Well, hello there! Thank you for stopping by. It would be apropos to tell you about how I came to chose the name of my new blog in my very 1st blog post. So here goes….first off, starting a blog is something I have thought about for a few years now. These thoughts just led to questions like: What would I write about? Why would anyone want to hear what I have to say? How would I brand it? What’s the goal? When would I have time?

These are the questions I have asked myself over and over again. Until recently. I was finally able to answer at least 1 of those burning questions!

When would I have time?

Now! Now that I have been furloughed due to Covid-19, I actually have time! Sure, I’m brushing up on some skills, organizing the heck out of my house and doing all sorts of things I never had “time” for. But what about the blog I’ve been dreaming of? It’s time.

Then I started to gain clarity on some of the other questions and suddenly the words are just flowing out of my brain at record speed! I needed to write them down. So I’m writing to you…but more for myself. I need this type of release like nobodies business.

So what’s in a name anyways? I have many ideas on topics I will write about but how should I name this new blog of mine? Then it hit me.

While I am sharing my world with you all, I’m also showing my heart.

What’s more, is when I met my husband, he lovingly characterized me as “fun & whimsical” which made my heart sing! At no point in time did I think anyone, let alone a man, would see me this way. I didn’t even see myself this way. After reflecting on this for a bit I thought about who I am and how I relate to others. LIGHT BULB! It made complete sense! I never thought about what I was like until I met my husband. He is someone who values me for who I really am and accepts me wholeheartedly. This is all gushy stuff that I’m sure I will write about later but as my sister would say….barf! Moving on.

As I keep dreaming (and writing) these 2 words kept spinning in my head…Whimsical & Heart. So there you go. That is indeed, what’s in a name.
