But the same can be said about relationships in the "real" life. I have never met any of my blogging friends, but there are a few I would love to have a chat with face to face. I hope one day I will have your same positive feedback.Now I'm going to check out Simone's blog too. Kisses and Happy New Year!

Even though blogging friends may feel we really don't "know" each other because we carry on our conversations via our blogs, twitter, etc., I think our personalities really do shine through. I know that when I talk to you here on your blog, I'm saying the same things here that I would be saying if you'd posed the question while I was sitting at a table with you (fun!) .. other than the addition of an occasional outburst such as: "Vanessa, can you believe we've finally actually met?!" (lol) So happy that your experience was a happy one and thanks so much for your compliment on my Christmas decor this week on the blog .. it was a fun theme to create! Hope you're having a blessed holiday season so far, Vanessa! ~S<br /><br />SANDY M Illustration<br />http://oohlafroufrou.blogspot.com<br /><br />Sandy at Ooh La Frou Frouhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00264245559729663977noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-688374863488035047.post-39312828229940929242012-12-16T13:08:36.798-08:002012-12-16T13:08:36.798-08:00Hi Vanessa, I'm so happy you got to meet one o...Hi Vanessa, I'm so happy you got to meet one of your online friends. The day spent with Simone sounds wonderful! I have made a few awesome friends online (including you) and I always look forward to catching up with them. A friend is a friend....doesn't matter where they're from. Back in the day, it was called "Pen-Pals" and the web has made this much easier. I am thankful for the friends I have made due to twitter.<br />Dee xoxoDeehttp://twitter.com/dees_cornernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-688374863488035047.post-58220716726119476862012-12-16T00:01:24.923-08:002012-12-16T00:01:24.923-08:00I loved this post V and I myself have been meaning...I loved this post V and I myself have been meaning to get my stuff sorted so that we can meet up too!
