how did i get here?

i wonder if people who start blogs thought they would ever become a "blogger"? i wretch at the idea...i'm not a fan of the age of technology but delight in writing a letter or having coffee with a friend.

so how did i get here?

my first response is that this is an attempt to reconnect with family and friends that we have failed to call, write, or visit over the past year or so. mike and i love our jobs but they require much of us. but we're not willing to sacrifice community for our careers. so hopefully this will be one way (and i emphasize one way since we desire more of our relationships with you) to stay connected.

i do love stories...reading them, writing them. a legacy from my grandmother and mom. so may this be a place where mike and i can tell our stories.

so here we go...one reluctant step into the world of blogging.
