the lady bloggers of Jordan Planet (part 1)

By kinziblogs

Can you believe it? After at least a YEAR (maybe 2?) I have a blog! And eight of you figured out it was here before I was done and somewhat knew what I was doing.

Thanks to my great husband for believing I could do this without getting addicted and still do the wife/mom thing while juggling 100 cyber friends. Thanks also to our good friend Tom who did it all then typed out a 20 step instruction process on how to post. I may be a blogger, but I am still a blonde; the learning curve has been sharp and steep, and now I can’t rest on my laurels of the accomplishment of learning just to cut and paste in 2006. Now, hallelujah, I know how to pdf and discovered the magical ‘right’ click of that mouse. How did I live without this knowledge?

Thanks aditionally to Natasha at Mental Mayhem, who got me hooked on reading blogs for MSM-free news. She was debating Athena about honor-killings, and when I opened the link to her blog I said “This girl has GOT to be a Twal. Is this blog world really so small? So Natasha, my first post is dedicated to you, click below and see my first VIVA article which featured Natasha as “The Mother Of JordanPlanet”. Blessings!

  29. Qwaider قويدر Says:

    WHAT!!!? Are you out of your @*$ mind!!!?

    Welcome to the bloggosphere Kinzi ….

  30. kinziblogs Says:

    Dear Ola, Muoffag, Issam, Summer, Khalidah, Jad, Wedad, Hani, Rebecca, Nasimjo, Observer, Hind, Dar, Hala, Firas and Khaled.

    THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH for your kind words of welcome to the blogosphere!!! My prayer is to make Kinziblog a place of blessing, as you have all blessed me.

  31. kinziblogs Says:

    Qwaider! You are TOO funny! Yes, as an affirmation sponge, I am afraid for that first cryptically sarcastic, contemptuous comment . I cringe reading those kind on other people’s blogs.

    Hope you don’t mind I edited your language a bit there.

  32. cafeglover Says:

    Congratulations Kinzi.
    We both started blogging at about the same time!
    May the Lord guide our posts and bless us both powerfully in this unusual medium.
    About being blonde… I know what you mean!
    I may be a Colombian brunette, but the internal roots that don’t show are definitely blonde! May God help us get the hang of the cyberworld!

  33. Red Rose Says:

    LOll cute Kinzi blogger!
    Congratulations ;)

  34. kinziblogs Says:

    Ola, Senora cafeglover! How fun to have my worlds unite through blogging! You will be my first Spanish speaking commenter! Blonde roots….LOL! Yes, may we be blessed, AND may God help us get it.

    Red Rose, you are the cutie…Allah yabarak feeki!

  35. Qwaider قويدر Says:

    Kinzi!!! :( You edited, and now it looks worse…. People will think it’s the “f” word :’(
    Bidddeeeeshhhhhhh

  36. kinziblogs Says:

    Qwaider, OH NO!!! Will people really think that! For me “to the pure all things are pure”.

    SO THE WORLD KNOWS, QWAIDER THE CONSUMATE GENTLEMAN DID NOT USE A FOUR LETTER WORD HERE. I ATTEST TO HIS HONOR.

    Someday I’ll post about Kinzi’s Commenting Protocol. It will include no using any form of God’s name unless it is in prayer or praise, in English or in Arabic (or German, Italian or Spanish :)

    Sorry for the momentary slander of your good character, Qwaider. Can you forgive me?

  37. Qwaider قويدر Says:

    God’s willing :)
    How could I ever not forgive you? You already are :)

  38. Iman Says:

    kewl!

    it probably was the f word, qwaider basha! (o k .. i’m just kidding :roll:

    :D

  39. Hareega Says:

    Great to see you blogging,

  40. kinziblogs Says:

    Dr. Hareega, thank you!!! My world is different already! BUT…laundry is piling up, whoops!

  41. Roba Says:

    Welcome to the world of blogging dear Kinzi :)

  42. kinziblogs Says:

    Roba, I am honored by your presence…thanks for inspiring me to explore the blogworld!

  43. Oula Farawati Says:

    cool! u have to tell us if u will enjoy or not… and dont edit people kinzi, it is enuff that we get censored left, right and center… welcome fellow blogger!

  44. kinziblogs Says:

    Thank you, Oula! Did I ever tell you I love the name you have? It just reminds me of Ole, a happy word in Spanish.

    You are telling me girl, about the censoring thing…I just finished a piece that I know will get chopped to bits. Unless you meant about censorship in our beloved country, in which case yes, I will be careful to let peopel express themselves. Just that we Christians have this 10 Commandment thing, where not ‘using God’s name in vain’ is one of our big no-nos. I want it to be a G-rated blog (whoops…just lost my audience!) as profanity-free as possible. But if there is truly no other word that works, Oula, you may be free to use it. You don’t use gratuitous profanity as a rule, and you are a word-crafter who has a large vocab…so comment as you like!

    BTW…I have a teeny-weeny little Christmas gift for you from the cookie party. How can I arrange to get it to you?

  45. Oula Farawati Says:

    hey Kinzi…
    shoo arrange what and I dont know what.. come over girl… I am in Khalda.. come anytime!

  46. natasha Says:

    Mabrook Kinzi on the new blog. It looks great:) Glad to know that I insipred you to join the wild world of blogging. Keep blogging

  47. kinziblogs Says:

    Natasha, ya Um-JP! Thanks for blessing my blog with your presence…and the inspiration to get it going! Remind me of this when I have my first unpleasant comment experience!
