Hold Your Nose, Close Your Eyes and Just Jump In

Random thoughts keep circling my mind like runners on the race track. The committee is in session, Where do I begin?, My name is…, We’ve only just begun…, Titles, Time enough…, Commitment…Woodturning…and these are only the front runners on the track and field. Oh let's not forget to “Start at the very beginning..” from Do Re Mi. But I have to admit from the start that timelines, organized thoughts and overall conventional thinking were never my forte. I like to think of myself as out of the box a bit. I also think that looking beyond the four walls into the next field is what has helped me with my genealogy past, present and future.

So do I have a goal here with this blog thing that I am commencing with? Yes I think so. To express myself, share what I have found and learned through experience, educate myself and possibly others who may run across this little field of mine and to grow within my own genealogical appointments in life. Oh did I tell you that this is the second time in my adult life that I have written a blog? So be patient with me please my people because as most things I have done, I learn as I travel. I feel that sometimes you just have to hold your nose and jump into the stream of life. Lucky for me that I can tread water.

So back to that beginning paragraph up top and those runners…The committee is in session… is in the lead and is telling me that I need to give birth to this blog with a name…now understand that the business side of me has always said KISS (keep it simple stupid) but the crazy mind side says to heck with that.

So until the next genealogical appointment…
