It's Time

I have been contemplating going private for some time now and well, the time has come. I started in this crazy world of blogging to keep a family journal of some sort and I want to feel free to express the joy, humor, struggles, and often the chaos that is our life without wondering who is reading it.
I would feel perfectly comfortable sharing anything written on this blog with family and friends but I am a little leery of blog hopping Hal who started at Jane's blog and then on to Johnny's and happened upon ours through a friend on a friend from junior high. So Hal you are out.
So, if you fall in the friends and family category, even distantly, please leave me your email address and will send you the official invite. Just include a short bio, no less than 3 references, and current background check. Thanks

Count me in, I count don't I? At one time I was in both categories so I feel my application will at least be considered. Oh, and we still need to get together for lunch some time...
