I am a blogger

My hope is that I will be a blogger. I have tried for years to keep journals, diaries, and calendars. And for years I have made an excellent attempts at preserving written accounts of my daily activities. All of these attempts usually last a matter of weeks and then I get lazy or pre-occupied. I tell myself I'll write tomorrow and then tomorrow comes and then I've forgotten all of the details of what I wanted to chronicle. This I am sure sounds very familiar.

OK, so why should this Blog be any different. I don't know. Maybe because I have young children and I want them to know me and our lives together. I am going to leave them all of my journals from the past and I hope they read through them and can relate to me better. I am sure after reading, two things may happen- 1. They think I am really cool or 2. They may need therapy. Or they could find them and get scared that my crazy life is also part of their DNA and one day they make get the same wild genes that I inherited.

I want to be a blogger, I want this to be a place in which I could share my family, my friends, my art, my life. Today I am a blogger.
