I have often thought I would like to find a method of journaling that could be shared with family and friends. After a bit of luck I caught up with lost friends that are currently posting on this site. I really enjoy writing, sharing events and pictures with the people I love. So here it is...

Today is January 28, 2009 and another cold, cruel day in Chicagoland. I say this in jest...actually life has been very good to me. My three children and six grandchildren are healthy and, for the most part, happy. Trisha and two of her daughters (Hailee and Amaris) live in West Palm Beach, Florida. Michael, Katie and their three children (Mikey, Ella and Sofia) live in Naperville, Illinois. Matt and Rhea live in Aurora, Illinois with their absolutely adorable rottweiler, Jade. Madalynn (my oldest granddaughter), Bobo (my three pound Pomeranian), and I live with Matt and Rhea.

I am employed by MC Property Management as a Community Association Manager. This means I spend a good bit of time taking care of other's homes and well being. There are days when I spend time muttering under my breath - some people have a very strange sense of entitlement.


Stay tuned for the real deal as I get this up and going...
