I’ve been blogging now for almost two years. I began in fits and starts here, moving to a professional blog over the summer of 2004 (which is now completely gone) and then deciding I could handle both a professional and a personal blog.

I am ever so glad I started doing this. It’s really amazing that I’ve kept this up as a daily routine for this long. If you glance back over the blog, you can see lots of projects I started and never finished, resolutions not kept, etc. But I’ve found this blog to be such a positive experience for me, I’m not sure I could live without it. Kind of a scary thought, I guess.

I started listing some of my favorite posts in the sidebar below the blogroll, mostly for myself.* If you’d like to suggest one, yay! It’s interesting to go back and see what I was writing and thinking about 2 years ago. A lot of it hasn’t changed. The issues I feel strongly about now I felt strongly about then. I’ve been somewhat of a broken record on certain issues.

I’ve made tomorrow a no screens day because I felt like the kids and I spent way too much time over the last couple of days in front of one screen or another. I’ll probably log on later in the evening, after the kids are in bed.

*These are the things you do on a Saturday night when your husband is off preparing for this.
