It's my first time....

Well, the time has finally come. I have two very dear friends that are "bloggers" and each of them have encouraged me at different times to start my own blog. So, since I had a lack of better things to do tonight, I decided today was as good as ever to get started. So as I make my blog debut, please bear with me as I learn what this is all about, what I should and should not say and I'll try to figure out just how much you all really want to know about me. Rest assured, that with my Alex at the age that he is (13), this could definitely get interesting. I hope you all enjoy reading my blog as much as I enjoy reading yours!
