A Day In The Life

I enjoy journaling. I find that recording one's history to be of significant importance. As life becomes cluttered with the daily activities, I find that journaling gets completely set aside and I find myself realizing there are many events that have gone unwritten. I have debated a blog but find that I just don't make the time for it. I have spent time reading and enjoying other blogs but never wanted to take the time to write my own. I realize this often. However, I have done nothing about it. Until now.
The reason for the sudden sense of urgency has come about for one big reason. I AM MOVING. Ok, I realize I have moved 9 times in the past 8 years. But this time the move is going to be BIG. I am moving to Mexico. No, not NEW Mexico, just Mexico. There is an international medical school there that my husband will be attending for the next four years. So I have made the decision to start this blog. I have decided it's a great way to stay connected with the people I love. And mostly, a great way to remember all the crazy adventures that we will be experiencing together as a family.

I have no idea what this blog will be like. I have no idea how to post pictures or change the templates. In fact, if it weren't for my sister, it wouldn't look the way it does now, and I don't even know how she did it. I have no idea how much I will be committed to this. Only time will tell...

I am a HUGE Beatles fan. One of my favorite Beatles' songs is called, "A Day In The Life." John Lennon and Paul McCartney wrote it. I've heard that the part John wrote has to do with newspaper articles he read. And the part that Paul wrote has to do with his childhood. Not sure if that's true, but I thought since I'll be writing about "current events," that is, current events in my life, as well as the events that take place in the lives of my 3 children, I found it appropriate to entitle this blog as such.

I also want to add something else. For myself mostly. I want to share what I found to be the good part of my day and the bad part of my day. So for today...
BAD: Jaren had to work late tonight.
GOOD: I enjoyed brunch at the Coffee Shop with some of my favorite people in the whole wide world.
