a good thing

Well, really, this is a new experience for me, blogging that is.  I do believe that I have even set one up before, I have just forgotten all the information.  My initial reason for start this blog is to keep in touch with a dear friend on mine.  She has leukemia and the hospital she is at does not have facebook.  Ha, who would have thought?! But as I was setting this up, I thought it would be a good thing to have to keep others updated on my own life.  Plus, I'm sure my mom will love reading it :)  So all in all, there are no promises on how often I will be able to update this, life does get busy,  but I think that it will be a good thing to be able to keep in touch with those that I love who are so far away.
