A first

I decided that if every Tom, Dick and Harry can blog, well so can I! About what? Who knows! A little of this and a little of that. It's okay if I'm the only one to read it, really. I don't mind having a myspace page and a facebook page with zero friends and zero visits.... really. So one more place that no one visits is no problemo.

Maybe some day I'll even have some beautiful scenic shots that so many post to their blogs. That could catch someone's interest, right? And I could write about books I've read. I like David Baldacci, Jeffrey Deaver, Stephen King, and many others.

Let's see, what else could I blog about? I'm afraid I'm not too interesting, and don't lead a thrilling life, but as a wise man once said, It is what it is. And that's okay. I'm active in my church. I teach Sunday school during the school year, and I'm involved with a prayer shawl ministry which I enjoy a great deal. I'm also taking a three year lay ministry course, which is a big commitment. There's so much to learn! I work full time for a magazine (maybe more on that later) and I get to travel a bit, which I love.

I'll be going to San Francisco on July 21 (I live in PA). Just my luck that my sister, who lives just outside of San Francisco, will be coming home to PA for a visit on the very day that I leave for San Francsico. What are the odds? But her visit is longer than mine, so she'll still be here for 2 or 3 days after I return. I'll be home for 4 days (just enough time to catch up on the laundry), and then it'll be time to leave on vacation. This time I'll be going to Colorado to visit my other sister and her family. I'll be gone for 10 days, and I'm going all by my lonesome... no offense to the rest of my family, but I'm going to LOVE having all of this time with my sister. A change of scenery is a beautiful thing. Especially when the new scenery contains the Rocky Mountains. Maybe I will get some of those great scenery shots.

So, what do you think of my first post? (Please don't hurt my feelings.)
