Hello Friend.
My name is Michelle though many of my close friends and family call me Chelle (pronounced like shell). Thoughts and Ponderances is a collection of stories and ideas that started as an almost daily email to former coworkers about my new life and new job. Some years have passed since I started those emails and my love for writing moved from the world of email to the world of blog.
Seletyn is my maiden name – that was “me” in my youth, when all things were both attainable and fresh. I am a crab apple now in comparison to my former self. Well, maybe not a sour crab apple but I cannot deny my pessimistic views on many things in life. 
Ever so often you will see the young me bounce out into a blog.
I hope you find some of my blogs worthy of your time. I enjoy writing and hope that it shows. If you have any ideas, comments or feedback…please do not hesitate.
Enjoy
Ciao

Michelle, I do alot of writing myself and I am very excited over your blog! It is great, but the word great does not even begin to desribe it ! By the way—you are such an interesting and awesome person ,and did you ever call Ryan?
LOL – Ryan is my nephew… He and I usually go back and forth on our FB pages.
And thanks for all of your wonderful compliments. I appreciate it.
