Where to start 2016? I’ll start with what matters most.

In 1989 I was lucky enough to marry my best friend. You could do the math, but I’ll just tell you – this year we’ll celebrate our 27th anniversary.

I wish I was better about chronicling events in my life. I have a friend who’s kept a daily journal since she was in grad school. That impresses me. I’m way to distracted by sparkly things to be that regimented.  But, maybe I could spend a few minutes a week dumping photos and words into this website. That should be easy, right? Right.

And, why start now? During the year of our 27th anniversary? Why not. Another thing I have a tendency to do is to put things off until I can “do them right.” So, I think — Ooh, darn, I should have done this the year we had our 25th anniversary, or maybe I should wait until our 30th? I do this a lot – convince myself that I’ve let the “proper” time slip by, or that I should wait for a time that makes more sense.

I’m tired of waiting. I’m tired of trying to make sense. The time is now.
