Welcome To My Blog

So, how do you start this thing? How about "Hi....welcome to my blog." I thought I'd go ahead and jump on the bandwagon and start a blog like everyone else. Actually this was a consequence of having someone close to me (well, she's not really close...in distance or even relationship...just someone I knew in California) create a blog to let her friends and family receive updated information on her new journey with cancer so she doesn't have to spend all day on the phone relaying the same information to everyone. Fortunately for her she's had a good prognosis, and the blog has added to the great support she already has that surrounds her.

In the mean time, I thought...wow...blogs can be very useful. And since then, I've enjoyed a few other blogs (see my list of blogs to NEVER read). So here I begin, with my very first blog, and my very first post.

So am I going to have a theme, a direction, a mantra, etc, for my blogspot? The short answer is "not really". Mostly I just wanted a place to share events that are happening in my life as well as the silly thoughts that go through my mind. I'm sure I'll pay for that later (like when I'm running for President of the United States). I promise...I didn't inhale.

If anything, I know this is going to be FUN for me!!!!! I'm excited to get started. And I hope you'll enjoy at least some parts of my blog. So, sit back, relax, and enjoy this blog!!!

Yay, you succumbed to peer pressure and joined the blogging craze. My livejournal is better than your blogspot though. Ha, kidding.

And for the record, I noticed you copied my format. :-P

...Wendy, it was a coincidence. I went through all the formats, and I loved the "boyish" blue format the best...hmmmmm.

Are you ever going to write again?

I'm doing fine since my surgery...I just haven't had time to write about it. Will do it soon.

10 years on the 18th. I'll have to think about that while I'm driving my family home from a two day trip to Utah. Do you remember being at our first mission reunion and saying something about how we couldn't believe we had been home for 7 months, and some guy turned around and said, "try seven years".
