Blog number one

Ok, so I got the idea to do this from a couple of places. One of those places was my Pop Pop Roche. My mom was recently telling a story about how after he died her and her sisters found his daily planners and split them among themselves. In those planners he wrote the sports scores for the day, the weather, and any other little tidbit he might have found important. The example my mom used was the entry from September 8, 1987... Phillies score (I can't remember what it was), weather high/low (again I can't remember that), Joanne had third baby. That was all he wrote, not my sister's name, not her gender, and it was all in that order! He was a riot!

Anyway, hearing that story I thought how cool is it that I have those diaries to read, even if there is nothing more than the Phillies score written down. But I have information written for every day for years! I decided then that after the wedding and the honeymoon I would start doing just that. I decided that I would keep my own diary and, hopefully, write in it every day so that way maybe my kids and grandkids will be able to have that to look back on. Hopefully I will keep up with it!

Anyway, I should go to bed now, we just got back from Hawaii this morning and I really should try to get back into the Philly time zone. It's 2:30 in the morning here but in Hawaii it is 8:30 at night!
