If you have arrived at this page I realize that you have taken the trouble to contact me for this blog’s username and password.
I appreciate the effort.
Thank you.
Oh, and by the way, the name of this blog comes from a comment once made at the Tamarika site by Jean at This Too. Thank you, Jean for your support and encouragement.
Update I
I hope to post the reason for this blog before I leave for Rhodes Island on Thursday. Will keep you posted (no pun intended … or … intended … hm … )
Update II
Yesterday, this piece in the New York Times Magazine had me gasping for breath. It hit so close to home I looked around to see if Daphne Merkin was in the room with me.

Hello there savtadotty. I am ashamed to say that I had to look “lode” up in the dictionary. I found three meanings for it. I chose one of them … if it is the one I chose, thanks so much. In fact, mining nuggets is pretty much one word at a time – at times.
Nuggets? I think you’ve hit a lode!
Hello there, Jean. Am so pleased to see you here. Thank you.
What a heartening and inspiring quote you start with. And I’m so chuffed to have given you a title! Long may you continue to share what you need to share. I’ll be here listening.
Well hello fellow travellers! I am thrilled to receive these my first comments on my newly born blog. Hurrah!
CHEERS Tamar! Enjoy your new place as you continue on your journey. We’ll be visiting.
Tamar,
If I could I’d send flowers to celebrate this endeavor. I, also look forward to sharing more of the beautiful you.
love,
lucyd
Thanks for letting me into you beautiful mind and spirit. I’ve been lurking and you have touched my heart in many ways. Thank-you and here’s to this new phase of your journey.
Here’s to your new adventures, Tamar! (Clink!)
Hey there, Mary! You are the first person to comment. That is heart warming and exciting. Thanks so much.
Congratulations on this new step, Tamar. Looking forward to mining the nuggets with you … π
