A beginning

So here I am. My husband nagged me into this. (or at least I'm blaming him.)
First task: decide which blog template best defines me as a person. Drumroll please...the "plain jane"!!

Now that that has been decided (along with the agonizing decisions regarding the blog name* and my posting signoature) I can get on with the work at hand.

*By the way, it's so annoying to pick out the best name only to find out some other schmuck has already thought of it and is not actively using their damn blog in the first place.

So what is the work at hand, you ask? Well, primarily this is for me (that's what they all say, right? But secretly we all hope for a small but loyal group of anonymous blog fans [blans?] who will read us faithfully). So the piece of this that is for me is to process my life's work as a mother, wife, and social worker. Also, currently, our family is in a crisis of indecision which pretty much takes up all my mind's energy when it isn;t actively engaged in something else. So I feel like I need a sounding board for the ever-changing perspectives in my mind.

Also, I hope to figue out things like how to link to articles and other sites (so I can share with my audience of one.)
