PROCRASTINATION

August 29th, 2007 3:22 am

I have been racking my brain on how to start this little project...therefore, I've done nothing.Now, I'm just hopping in and DOING IT!!
The whole point is to start answering the questions in the book "TO OUR CHILDREN'S CHILDREN" so that my ancestors, namely children and grandchildren, will acquire an understanding of how life was "back in the day". I figured the best way is to list the questions as they are in the book, at least the ones that pertain to me, and then simply answer. I know that doesn't sound too difficult to most people but......the first thing everyone will learn about me is I procrastinate.
The other dilema is..... How honest do I "really" want to be? I mean, come on, no one gets thru 49 years of life without skeletons and some of us have alot MORE skeletons than others. I guess I'll just wait to see how I feel at the time. At any rate, I have at least started and feel very happy about that.

My First Blog

I came up with this great idea about blogging for my children's children. Years down the road, when I'm long gone, I want my grandchildren to know how very much they were loved by me. I want them to know how my life was and all the trials and tribulations one goes thru. I have this book called "To Our Children's Children" with hundreds of very interesting questions about life and growing up. The problem was and is, no space to write the answers. AND...I want all my grandkids to have a copy. I certainly don't want to handwrite the same answers over for each grandchild (right now there are 3 kids..I suspect more will follow) I thought it would be a great idea to blog the answers, print them out for each grandchild, and make them a "My granny's blog book" or something to that effect.
Now, I just have to find the book !! It's here, packed away with all my other treasures. (My treasure chest will be a blog someday too. It's wonderful. Packed to the rim with memories.)
Well, let me start hunting !!
