Playing Catch Up

So I just really love this blog thing. I love looking at others' to catch up on their families and I love that I have a place to write down and document all of the everyday stuff that I won't necessarily be scrapbooking. I used to be really good at keeping a journal in junior high and high school when I had a life that revolved all around me, but it's been a losing battle ever since. I have about 2 or 3 journals around here somewhere with the startings of good intentions, but it doesn't ever last long.

Just recently I was thinking it was too bad I didn't start my blog a year earlier because I had kept a somewhat up to date journal in a Word document during the end of 2006 through 2007 on major family events. I even had a few pictures added since that is when we got our digital camera. Then my sister in law told me that you could change the posting dates and I could add it all in and still keep it all chronological. Yipee! So I decided to copy and paste it all over to our blog. No, I won't be typing up my life story from my teenage journals, but since this part was already saved on my computer, I wanted to have it all in one place for once.

Some of my entries in my "Word journal" were copied over from Emails that either I or Brendan sent to out of state family...kind of a longer way of doing a blog, I guess. I used to enter information weekly which makes for long posts now, but I'm just glad to have it for posterity sake. So if you are in the mood for reading, have several hours (or maybe days) to kill, and love to read a lot about football, check out my older posts. No need to comment on any of them. That would be crazy.
