First One

Well, folks. I hope to update this blog at least once a week. I don't really know why I'm starting it, to tell the truth. I guess I am just transferring my journal to here. I've kept some sort of journal/diary since I was about 12. Now that I've been married for 21 years and have children (two boys--Q., almost 11 years; C., 6 1/2 years), I find myself writing more often than I did when I was younger.

I recently found out (after suffering since I was very young) that I have celiac. So I will be posting interesting recipes, new information and the like here. Also, I will be boring you with my journey through wifedom and motherhood.

I am also one of Jehovah's Witnesses and will periodically post tidbits about how that affects my family life. Let me make a preemptive statement: please don't flame me about this. I did not start this blog to debate religion with anyone. However, as this is my way of life, it will "pepper" my blog, so be forewarned. If you don't want to read about Jehovah's Witnesses, you have the choice of not reading this blog.

All that being said, I will now click "publish post" on my first blog entry.

BTW: The picture was "drawn" by my 6 1/2 year old on the computer. Great, right?
