Two Plus Years

A little more than two years ago I started this blog. It is done for me. I love to look back and remember things about each day. Over the years I have done these journals. First on paper and pen. That was back in the late eighties or early nineties. Then in the mid-nineties I started to do one on my computer using MS Word. But over time I will forget to do it and then I lose interest, or I am so far behind.

I have been updating this daily for two years. I am sometimes disappointed that I don’t have as much detail as I would like after the fact, sometimes I leave things out. Many of my entries are long, but I also have some short ones. I still thing that I am not totally hitting on one of my purpose statements from day one:
I don’t think I will tell everyone, everything. I think there are some things you will have to learn on your own, and you will have to put two and two together from time to time to figure out some things. I will treat my blog like my real life. I will not tell people things on here that I don’t tell them in real life. Will I be more open with my personal thoughts? Heck yeah. That is what this is all about. Who cares that I wake up and go to work each day? No one. What I care about is what made the day special. What it was that I got out of the day. I traded a day of my life for today, and I need to make sure it was worth it. To you, I want you to be put into my shoes and see what I see, feel what I feel and think what I think.

I was really hoping to discuss more or my thoughts and less of the I did this, then I did that. On a personal side, I want to remember the I did this and I did that stuff, but I would also like to take a closer look at specific events or thoughts and expand on them a little bit.

I am always remembering little events from my past and I want to write a blurb about it, but I tend to forget by the time I get to the computer.

Let’s see if the next two years can be more about the who I am, and not so much about the what I did. I will never totally leave out the what I dids, but I want more of the who am I and what makes me tick right now.

I do have a separate politics blog that I have going right now. That is more for rants on the latest happenings in the news and politics. I decided to have a separation between my personal life blog and my politics blog.
