My first blog

I've been wanting to do this for a long time. But I wasn't sure I wanted just anyone to read my inner thoughts. So, I decided to compromise, I will use this blog to keep in contact with my friends and family and use a journal for more personal things :) I think this will be easier than e-mailing so many people. It seems that we've moved around a bit and now have a number of people we are close to and want to remain in touch with. I am not complaining one bit, but it has been difficult for me to have enough time to e-mail, call or write to everyone.
