Here's to my 2nd chance....

So technically when I posted last...somewhere like Sept. 9, 2009 (see below), I was starting over + going to get my blog up + running again. I had planned to post at least 4 times a week. Keep everyone up with what is going on. Well, let’s just say I am horrible. Not only did I never post after that Sept. 09 post, it’s been almost 8 months since I logged on. I need to get motivated. This is a place I can share my life + thoughts with my family members who are miles away. So here is to a new start. Let's begin.
