My First Blog

So... I have just finished setting up my blog. It actually makes me a little nervous. I used to keep a journal years ago but lost it during one of the many moves I have made. I never started a new one. I'm not sure why. I really enjoyed writing in my old journal. It was sort of cathartic. I am hoping by starting this blog that I can somehow bring back a little of the old me that I miss. I've lost more than that old journal. I've lost being in touch with myself. I am going to start trying to do things that I have not done for quite some time like reading for pleasure, going for long walks, and being more in touch with family members I haven't seen for awhile. My husband lost his job yesterday so I guess he will be doing some soul searching, too. Here's to new beginnings!
