First Things First

First, why a blog?  I barely have time to read the back of a cereal box, much less maintain a blog.  I don't travel extensively, so don't look for many posts featuring me in some glamorous location.  I rarely dine in fancy restaurants.  In fact, I can usually cook a better meal at home.  But, don't look for me to cook my way through any cookbook.  Seriously, who has time for that?  Frankly, I have no idea what I will write about.  That's part of the fun!

Next, what's with the name?  I admit it, I'm an epilogue person.  The first thing I did when I picked up the last Harry Potter book was flip to the epilogue.  I needed to know that it was all going to be OK in the end. There might be a lot of trauma contained in the 750 pages of the book, but please, please, please let Harry win in the end!  Epilogues put things in perspective.  My husband and I were talking the other day about some stressful topic or another, probably related to our kids, and he said he was just going to wait for the epilogue.  Perfect.  I hope our epilogue will reveal that this has all been a worthwhile venture.  

I love to write.  I guess that's the bottom line.  I don't know what I'll be writing about from day to day, but I'll try to keep it interesting.  There's usually something going on in my life.  For better and for worse, much of it is hilarious.  Thanks for reading!
