in the beginning...

i want my own blog. 

i have a work blog, i have a family blog, but where do i record the thoughts and moments that fall in between?  the question has been plaguing me for some time, and with the encouragement from some friends on a recent trip to seattle, the answer became clear- i need my OWN blog! 
i'm not exactly sure how long i will be able to sustain it, or what it might contain, but i need a place for my stuff to be filed away (and scrutinized by you, the reader, and hopefully commented on, too!), so here it is.
thanks for helping me remember the life i have outside of the rest of my life.

if only there were more hours in the day...
