I have been blogging for 15 CONSECUTIVE years.... holy moly. I don't know a lot of people that have been blogging for that long or that have been that consistent too. I'll be truthful, it has been hard to keep up blogging since 2020 (COVID). My kids are getting older (not as exciting), I am working part time (self-employed Etsy business) and going back to school. I have wondered if I should stop or not? I mean, who really reads my blog? I also have wondered WHY do I blog. And it comes down to - Family History. When I was a kid I wrote in my journal but I hated writing and as I got to the age of a teenager, I disliked it even more. Then a friend's sister starting journaling on her home computer. I thought for sure she was crazy, cuz "who in their right mind" would type out their feelings. lol!!! Fast forward 25+ years and here I am doing that, plus posting pictures to create memories. And that my friends is the real reason why I blog....
