first entry in my blog

I have started to read Janis's blog which has given me the idea to create my very own. I'm not sure that mine will be that interesting but here goes! Perhaps I may not even tell my friends about it, would they want to read an account of my day to day life or even my thoughts? Do I know what a blog is, Is it a diary, I'm not sure! I am after all a middle aged (and thats if I live to be nearly a hundred years of age) woman, I have lived a very ordinary, but very contented life! I have a long and very happy marraige with Steve and together we have two children, though they are hardly children, at 20 and 24. Ian and Matt are two unique young men, who are set to leave their Mark. Ian: I am sure in the world of biological sciences in which he is to make his career, his enthusiasim is contagious and if only I had his intellect to understand the things that he is studying and that he so patiently explains to me. Matt has charisma and an eccentricity which at times is hard to tolerate, he is extremely intelligent and with his developing maturity I know he will be successfull. (apologies for sounding like a school report).
Well what else should I write? this week has been a very exciting week. We attended Adrianne and Dave's wedding on Saturday, it was a truely joyous event, It was wonderfull to witness these two delightful young people make their vows at a start of their lives together.
On Tuesday my Mother moved into her seaside flat, it is the first home that she has chosen and bought on her own, it must be very hard for her to now have a home to which my Dad has had no imput or shared memories. Its more than five years since she was widowed and she had obviously felt that the time was right to move out of the home in which she had spent the last twenty years of a very longand happy marraige in. When Mum moved in with and although there were no difficulties during that interim, I know she is delighted once more to have her own home. Mum won't mind me saying that Steve and I are pleased to be back on our own again, she understands why we like to have our home to ourselves.
