The Return

Welcome back!  I've missed me.

In 2010 I started a blog (News From the Swamp: http://ann-newsfromtheswamp.blogspot.com/ ).  What with my computer dying and a problem with my email address--I lost access to it.  I can read it (and so can anyone else) but I can no longer add to it.

And what the heck--except for Bob and myself and the occasional random passer-by, no one read it (Facebook, Instagram and the like have replaced blogs).  But I've realized that I miss it.  I miss having a journal of the highlights (and occasional lowlights) of my life.  I miss trying to remember when thus-and-so happened and not being able to check the blog.  I miss just randomly reading it myself for the memories.  I've tried a few times to keep a journal but end up never writing in it.

Every time I think about restarting it--I bog down.  How does one catch up on 10 months?  Where does one start?  I was going to start with last February (where the last one ended) and sort of plod along.  But, on the other hand, I want to start off with Hurricane Michael which has been a rather major event, to put in mildly.  So the first several--or many--posts will be pretty random.

But at least I'm back--and it feels pretty good.
