It's a whole new blog--same old me

Welcome to my new blog!  It's a place where the Lotus is rising.  

I finally made my decisions about how I wanted things to change.  Thank you all so much for your input.  It made the choices so much easier.  I hope you like the new look of things.  It's much brighter than I'm used to, but the green and white go so much better with the lotus picture that I was finally able to get up in the header that it was the only way to go really.  They are some of the lotuses from Monet's garden that I photographed summer before last which makes them sentimental for me, so I wanted very much to use them.

My new blog address will be lamoss.blogspot.com--as you can tell if you're already here, but I thought you might want to know why.  I decided that it would be easier and better for the address to just go by my name and yet be a little different, so I went with my initials and my last name and shock of all shocks lamoss was available.

The new blog name is Lotus Rising.  It's a spin on what Justus suggested.  I loved the whole image of the Lotus rising from the mud and growing into the light.  Thanks Justus!  and Congrats again on the new little one!  Well, really I guess he's not so little, but here's a shout out for young Ashton Luke Bowman!

There will be no more lotusloq.  She's retiring.  The new name will be lotusgirl.  I picked something that wouldn't be that big of a switch but that would keep with the whole lotus theme I've got going on.
