the actual #1

huh, i've never done this before, but i've been desparately encouraged for a long time now by nearly my entire family. guess i'm just the next one to go.

so i find myself in a very large house with many boxes and plastic totes half full of things that need to be moved. i just read the Sailor's thoughts on the economy and how the sky is falling. i know it is, i just dont like the reminders. and suddenly all this stuff i think i need looks like a pile of junk. i feel deflated. and i dont even have a coffee table.

this is the first one i typed, and thought i posted, but i realized later that nothing had been posted, and i thought i lost this draft, so i just typed the next one (number 1) cuz i'd already forgotten everything i said in "the actual #1" so, that was REALLY my first attempt

Hi Pixie,
I think I need to make sure that you have a coffee table if you are going to read my blog. But read the other stories too. Walt, and Kay, stories about Grandpa. I have one that I will post in a day or two about a Great Escape. There are always troubles in the world, and I think it best to know where and when they might be coming from, but our parents (your grandparents) made it through a world war and the Great Depression, and I know that we will be able to have good lives too if we stick together. Our lives might not be without care and worry, but they can have a lot of joy and love in them too. It's like President Hinkely's train ride. Sometimes cinders, soot and delays, sometimes bursts of speed and beautiful vista's. Love you Pixie.
