And it begins....

Well, here it is. My first official blog post. I'm sure that everyone has been waiting with bated breath for my words of wisdom, so I'm giving the people what they want. And if you don't recognize that as sarcasm, well, you're going to be very confused by anything written here!

I spent the day trying to get back into the swing of things from having a nice 4 day weekend. Late last week, I continued house hunting, which is what I'll be doing until I can find the right house. I found a few possibilities and am looking forward to my appointment with the realtor tomorrow night to see the inside of some of them. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that I find what I'm looking for. When I find the house, I plan on posting progress reports here on getting it set up the way I want, all the painting, replacing and other fun stuff that goes along with home ownership. I'm ready to get started; all I need is the house!

I also traveled to the bootheel of Missouri to help co-host a shower. At least I think I co-hosted it, now I'm not sure. I did send out the invitations, but that was pretty much my part of it. Not that I have a problem with that; it was much easier on me to not have to decide how to transport food during a 6 hour trip. The shower was lovely, and little Tristan Michael Batchleor was a hit. I look forward to watching him grow up to be one of the smartest little boys in Missouri! It was great to see his parents as well, my friends Jason and Jodie. They seem to be getting the new parenting gig down. They are one of those couples that gives marriage and parenthood a good name; which is nice to see.

I hope that anyone reading this will occassionally be entertained, possibly even have some thoughts provoked. If you tune in tomorrow, I'll probably be ranting about the latest episode of Lost and whatever else needs to be discussed. Until then...God bless!
