Hello There!

Greetings! I suppose I am now a blogger! Up to this point, I have resisted the idea of ever blogging because I always viewed bloggers as individuals who just enjoyed hearing themselves talk! I have found however, that it can be fun and useful to see what things other people think are fun and useful. so I am going to give it a try! This will not be a place for me to spout off about what I am doing at the moment... you can ask me through other forms of communication if you must know what I am doing and how I feel about it!

On this blog, you will see a variety of topics. I love to converse about ideas... ideas that are relevant to my life or the lives of my family and friends. I have a tendency to really mull over an issue before letting it go, so consistent readers will probably observe many common themes in my posts that will hopefully build on each other! Many of the the posts will be quite ridiculous I am sure, so don't take everything I say too seriously. Hopefully you will understand my sarcastic humor (it can be a bit subtle at times).

"Faithful are the wounds of a friend..." so I welcome any feedback, criticism, or disagreement. I also greatly appreciate agreement! If you have any comments, questions, or answers, please feel free to comment on the blog or to me in person. I may be burdened to show you the error of your ways (I am always right... don't say you weren't warned!), but that is not to say that we cannot conduct a civil discussion.

To celebrate this first post, and the fact that Lord willing I will be home soon, here is my favorite quote from one of my favorite "quotables," Samuel Johnson: "To be happy at home is the ultimate result of all ambition, the end to which every enterprise and labor tends, and of which every desire prompts the prosecution."
