My very first blog post

All right, so I've been thinking about doing this for ages now. It seems that to get on any good manufacturer's design teams (which I periodically consider doing) one must have an active blog.
And I keep thinking that it would be great to have a place to keep track of all the stuff that life throws at us. Sometimes the details get fuzzy in memory and I really like to have a clear rear view mirror. I find that the older I get, the more easily distracted I am and that seems to cause more short term memory fail. At least writing stuff down means that at some point I am likely to look back at it and remember.
So today I finally bit the bullet and (to borrow a phrase from NIKE) I just did it! And ... so this is my blog. I will probably post things like...whatever is important to me. you know, all that matters. This will certainly include proud Mom stories and/or vents about being the parent of a young adult child. It may also include various recipes, hints, tips and tricks related to the weight loss/healthy lifestyle journey that Nate and I are on. In addition, since I live and breathe papercrafting, scrapbooking and cardmaking I suppose there will likely be some posts on stuff I make as I make it. So, anyhow...welcome to my blog. Thanks for looking!
