Why I Started a Blog...or...A Creative Outlet Using the Least Creative Platform

I finally decided to start a family blog. There are so many reasons why I have decided to add one more thing to my already over flowing plate, including:

1. I'm insane and struggle with saying "no" instead of "yes" to new tasks;
2. Friends and family are scattered across the country and I have so far failed at regular texting, emailing, calling, etc; 
3. I think Jim and I are more interesting than you likely will; and 
4. Sometimes a creative outlet is needed but you aren't creative enough to come up with anything better than a blog.

 Jim doesn't know about it yet, but I am hopeful he will contribute as my better and definitely funnier half.
