Before this goes on much longer, I should point out that my particular friend, Penny, has a blog of her own.


I've been urging her to publish in just this manner. That's why I'm taking a bit of my own medicine and putting up this blog.

I've tried blogging with a few different tools and never really been satisfied with any, but though this might be worth trying.


Recently, I had to clean out the basement for the big project and had to toss or yardsale off what I could. During the process, I found a large stack of old journals I had kept since high school. It was mostly navel gazing and bemoning the fact I didn't write more in my journals, so none of that here!


And as my role model, who I refuse to immitate, see the Blog of Samuel Pepys!
