My son loaned me a laptop..and while my grandson slept I read thousands of blogs. I promised myself when & if I got home, I would start a blog of my own. I'm very family-oriented. One day I was thinking it would have been just grand if I had a journal from my grandmother on her daily thoughts, her life, her hopes and fears.,but I have no written journal of her life, or my aunt's. And what better way to leave a legacy than to have a blog! I'm bringing up my grandkids...and one day they might want to read my blog....it just might make their day to read what 'Nutty Nan' was writing while they slept! This is just one of the reasons I blog! There are other reasons, but this is Number 1...that's why I try to keep it clean! I'm celebrating my 7th month of blogging! And I love it! <em><strong>Well, Matty, I would have thought you had been blogging much longer than that. I try to keep this relatively clean so that school libraries will still hire me to tell stories to children! :lol: Just reading a few posts in your blog tells me how much you love it...and that you love people. I hope to still be visiting when you are celebrating the next 7 months.~skt</strong></em> Shelly,

Especially for the past week or so when it's been hard to come by things to write about. Number 2 on your list strikes a chord with me because I find myself wondering far too much about strangely off-the-wall things. In any case, I'll be sure to post another comment when I do get to writing my post! I'll mainly be doing it so that I can focus and gather myself. <em><strong>Well, I linked you up there. Do tell me when you have it written. This OTHER project is keeping me from pitty-patting around very much to visit. I figure you would have some good answers, which is why I gave you a "heads up."~skt</strong></em> I am totally going to participate in this because I find myself wondering why I blog!

Now when I write up a post, it's much more like talking to a friend. Until I started getting comments it was hard for me to try to write like that. <em><strong>Comments make all the difference, don't they?
