So several weeks ago Destry burned music from iTunes onto five CD's to put in the Yukon. He gathered a variety of genres from a variety of eras. There are quite a few selections from the Carpenters and ABBA. I enjoy listening to both. They could be considered contemporaries , but I have never thought their styles were similar enough to be confused. That is, until my children did. Now whenever we get into the car and turn on the tunes we play a little game of "is this the Carpenter's or ABBA?" Usually they get it wrong. They are slowly getting better, but it has taken a long time. Who knew?
I began this blog one year ago this month. This is my 31st post. That puts me at exactly 2.4 posts per month. Not a world's record, but a personal best. Up from the zippo I had before. I started it so that my children would have some record of their family's life. I haven't been very good at journal keeping in the past. I have been hit or miss at best. What I hadn't anticipated was how much I have enjoyed writing and reading this blog. I have reread my posts, some of them several times. They have made me laugh, cry and reminisce about my life. I like to write, so it should not have been such a surprise. But for some reason or other I didn't realize how much I would benefit from it. Maybe next year I will average a 3 or even 4 posts each month. I have ideas and notable life events that I could write about, but we shall see.
