[FONT=georgia,times new roman,times,serif]Well, here it is...in all it's glory! My very first post in what will be my attempt at a blog. Excellent! A place where I can share my thoughts about whatever I want, hopefully leave some sort of written legacy of my life for my kids, and the most noble of my missions; shamelessly plug my online Christian bookstore which you can find at www.sonrisechristian.com. (It's currently my Mr. Holland's opus.)[/FONT]
At this point you are probably wondering, how in the world is a busy mother of three who has a full time job going to find the time to write a blog? I have absolutely no idea but the plan is to write every Monday, Wedneday and Friday so, we'll see how it goes.
As for my writing skills, you can already see they are something to be desired. I will have comma's and semi colens in the wrong place and there will definately be spelling mistakess. This program I am blogging on appears to not have spell check. Guess I should have checked that out before now. Anyway, my brother assures me that my writing will improve with practice. Hope he's right, (he usually thinks he is).
I might as well tell you a bit about myself. I was raised in a military home, my dad started out in the navy but switched over to the airforce after a few years. I was born on a military base in Cold Lake, Albera, Canada, and believe me, the lake was cold. I became a beliver in Jesus Christ when I was only 6 years old (more about that in another blog). My dad's name is Jim, my mom is Dora and my little brother is Jim as well. We moved from Ontario to B.C. and back again but never overseas. Right up till I entered grade 8, we moved every two years. From grade 8 to grade 12 we lived in Trenton, Ontario and moved from there to Newmarket, Ontario after my dad retired from 25 years of service. I attended two years of college, started my working career, met my husband, Ron, got married and had our first child, Hope, in Newmarket. As you can tell, I lived there awhile; 11 years actually. In 2002, our family moved to Barrie, Ontario and we bought our first home. I had our second child, Paige, and our third child, Charles. That was a year ago and we have lived in Barrie for a little over 6 years. That brings us pretty much up to date. My whole life of almost 35 years in a paragraph. Never fear, I will fill in alot of the blanks for you and keep you up to date on my daily life and thoughts as well.
Hmmm, not bad for my first go at it and as they say, "it all gets better from here baby!" (Whoever "they" is.) Maybe it was just me who said it.
Anyway, that's just my point.
