A New Beginning

So tonight while I was perusing my friends' blogs I thought, "Am I interesting enough to have my own blog?" Do I ever have anything interesting enough going on in my life that other people would want to read?"  Probably not, but my boyfriend has his own blog and he has had it for almost two years now and his theory is that going ahead in his life, he'll always be able to look back at the important, funny or terrible things that happened to him along the way and remember with words and photos.  It's a pretty great idea.

So I thought, I'll give it a whirl.  While I don't expect to have anyone follow it except Eric, I've probably ruined even that happening by posting a music link on my page.  I'm still not sure if the music link begins automatically or if you have to click it.

I guess my thought is that if I can keep this running through out the rest of my life it would be a pretty sweet thing for the future generations of my family to be able to read and look through.  I'd kill to have any insight into my great grandparents' lives.  Sometimes, much to my chagrin, I have to admit that technology can be a wonderful thing.

So here goes.  I make no promises about how frequently I'll update, but I can tell you this:  It annoys the hell out of me when my friends don't update as frequently as I check their blogs.  So I'll do my best not to annoy myself.

  2. Thank you. I've since learned the music doesn't automatically play, you have to click the link.

  4. That's pretty much my main motivation. I would love for my great grandkids to know their history as told by me. And if anyone else reads it that's cool too.
