Oh, look, see Spot run.

Well, here is an inaugural entry to my blog. I will try to be grammatically correct in my presentation, and will use the spell checker often, knowing that homonyms used incorrectly escape the spell checker.

I am going to tell stories of my ageing process as I remember them. I may tell stories on my children, but not to embarrass them. They will be stories that stick in my mind as significant in their life or significant in my memory of them growing up.

If some of the facts of these stories are not exactly accurate or right,....They ought to be. As one ages, certain stories have more impact on the memory process than others. That explains why some folks, (my Dad) tell the same stories over and over. In an effort not to offend my dad, I would listen to the stories as if it was a first reading. It was a small price to pay.

So, for you, my daughter Nancy, I will tell some stories and archive them here in this blog. If you want to help me with the appearance, please do.

  4. So, I know I'm one of those roundabout relatives, but you're stuck with me anyway! I can't wait to hear about your stories. Oh, and last week I was at a conference and the speaker was talking about how memories are actually protein strands in our minds and that every time we remember something we're actually unraveling and reconstructing that particular protein strand which is why memories often change over time. It an interesting lecture. Maybe I'll look into it... someday!

  5. I wouldn't worry about spelling. It's very rare that a person would misuse a homonymph.
