Taking the plunge

So I'm finally doing it.  I'm starting a blog.  I've been ogling the blogs of others for some time now, but my misgivings about lack of time and worthwhile material have paralyzed me.  Danny, my charming husband, surprised me with a super-cool new camera and a flashy laptop over the holidays so that I could realize my blogging fantasy.  I feel a lot of pressure to be artistic and witty.  

I'm currently in California, staying to help my sister who just had her first baby.  Both my sister and her husband are great bloggers who have been coaxing me to come aboard.  Well, Britney and Mike ultimately squelched all my excuses for not having done it already, and here I am. They're right.  I will find the time.  I will find stuff to chronicle.

p.s. baby zoey is beautiful and i miss my family in az.
