First Post!

There's hardly anything more wonderful than a new beginning -- whatever kind of beginning it may be.  In my case, it's the first post in my new blog on my new website!  I think that qualifies as exciting (at least to me it does!). 

For years I coped with a plain vanilla, ludicrously basic DIY website that really didn't serve my needs well, but at least gave me a spot on the internet.  Then came my Facebook page, which was much better in many ways, but still didn't give me a really efficient place to permanently organize and access all the thoughts, articles, and projects that I'd want to share.  With Facebook, everything moves down the scroll and out of sight so quickly.  Good luck trying to locate a short post on an obscure topic six months later!
