Pounded Steemit Doors With Open Sesame Mantra Until Y'all Let Me In!!!
Dear fellow Steemians,
I'm IN!
I mean it.
I waited.
And waited.
And waited some more.
And I AM IN!!!
SEE:
Yayyyyy!!!
But now, you know what comes next, right?
Yep!
Work!
Play!
Plurk. ;)
What should be #1 on my list is to do a proper, longgggg, introductory post.
Maybe later, when I've gotten some sleep.
It's 4:42am, EST here in Jamaica and I'm way too excited to sit and write a more serious post right now.
So that will be #1 when I'm more rested and... not jumping up and down so much inside with excitement to be finally IN here on Steemit!!!!
Up until this post, I've been commenting a bit and upvoting some posts. Some by a few peeps I knew before like @peggyhazelwood and @katebenzin. I just, just, just followed two other author buds, @garyharvey and @joannereid and I'll upvote some of their stuff later.
Other posts I've commented on and upvoted were by complete strangers. I found them while scrolling new posts at https://steemit.com/created
BUT between the trending and new posts, I saw soooo many that I wanted to resteem that I got totally frustrated. I wanted to write the very first post and the effort it was taking to NOT hit the Resteem button was way too much.
So I decided, hell or highwater, I HAD to get my first post DONE!!! A post. ANY post!!!
Hence this kinda intro one you're reading now (Thank You!), that should probably be a proper long and more serious introduction, but isn't. And that's ok.
And now, I'm going to finally eat my dinner from last night that has been sitting, covered, calling to my rumbling tummy.
I've been soothing tum-tum with hot ginger tea but I'm really hungry now and I've posted my very first few words, with a couple pics too, so I can force myself to stop long enough to eat and relax a bit.
Talk soon.... and Happy Sunday wherever you are in the world, Steemit Fam... Stay Blessed.
Angela
PS Maybe my next 'by me' post will be about my changing headers on this first day of my Steemit journey. I think the one that's now up is the 3rd or 4th.
It's one with some tall Redwood tree trunks with lovely light playing with shadows in the forest. BUT I've already decided it's going the way of the first few. So look out for what's coming next... ;)
PPS btw, if you enjoyed this share, please upvote and resteem.
Dear steemer,
nice post and I followed you :) Please follow me :)
Hi, @sadbin! Thank you soooo much! You're the VERY FIRST person to comment on my VERY FIRST Steemit post. Yayyy!!! Bless you.
And Thanks for the follow and of course I will follow you back, my history-making fellow Steemer! ;)
Reading your stream of consciousness chatty writing in this, your first post, Angela, and I know one thing. You're gonna do great here.
Okay, that falls short in the grammar department but the meaning is 0% ambiguous. Right?
Anyhow, a huge welcome to the gal who stayed up till 4.42AM out of sheer excitement about Steemit.
Gary
Gary, thanks so much for hopping over to comment. I appreciate. Steemit represents so much, it's hard to put into words. It feels like a whole new world that's taking form amidst the rubble of so much that's falling apart... if that makes any sense whatsoever.
I LOVED Twitter for the speed and ease of staying in the moment with world happenings on a second-by-second basis. Liked FB for its groups. Even BEFORE I gained admittance here, it felt like Steemit is a blend of both and YT and, and, and... so MUCH more. It feels a bit like pure consciousness, the instant connectivity at heart/mind/soul level... I'm still just taking it all in amidst this inner glee. ;)
Thanks so much, Gary. But you set me off again in that streaminggggg.... ;)
Welcome to a really great platform, UpVoted you :)
Thanks, Andy... for both. ;)
Welcome to Steemitsphere [Steem world], @angelacs! Hope you'll enjoy the platform always as you meet new friends. Enjoy your day!
Thank you so much, @timliwanag! It's been a joyful first few days. So many new friends sharing unique forms of self expression. Wonderful and exciting.
LOVED your 'Why Love Matters' post and resteemed and upvoted. There was another one too but not remembering now. ;)
Blessings and talk soon again.

Peggy, my dearest. I could not have done those pics without you. My first couple tries were so HUGE and then I remembered you'd given me the dimensions that would fit. You've been so incredibly kind and supportive. Thank youuuuuu and I'll be coming back later to upvote what you've posted while I slept!!! ;)
Sorry, Peggy. Just running through to say thanks to other commenters and realized I didn't upvote you before. Fixed! ;) <3
