Willkommen, bienvenue, welcome! This is the start of our little blog. This will
serve a triple purpose and maximize that all important factor of EFFICIENCY!!!!
First off, it allows us to let friends and family know a little more about our
life so far away from so many. We know we can be horrible about keeping in
touch. (It's so hard,......and we're forgetful :p) Second, it lets us keep a
near permanent record of the things we do to our new home. There's probably
going to be a lot of them. Third, and personally most important, it lets us
vent and/or gush about different things in our house. I say most important
because keeping Danielle from killing Matt because he has talked her ear off
one too many times is a very, very important goal.
To start, a couple notes. First, this is mainly a house remodeling blog. Yes,
there will be things that are not house related on here from time to time, and
often what is happening with the house will bleed over into other life things,
but the house is our first and foremost topic on this blog.
Next, this blog is mainly for one-way communication. We make no promise on
checking comments or regular updates or anything that would restrict a naptime.
Deal. If you want to talk more about what is on here or want to just catch up,
send an e-mail to one of us and hope it doesn't get lost in the black hole of
our g-mail inboxes. Or if you are feeling exceptionally lucky, try calling Matt
and hope the planets align so Matt actually has his phone on him, it is
charged, not in a dead spot, and he is feeling slightly less lazy than normal
so he will actually pick up the phone. Or, ya know, smoke signals might work.
Third, Matt is the one writing the majority of the posts. Danielle is a
literal Godsend and can check grammar, punctuation and the like, but keep in
mind Matt almost had to retake remedial English because he was too stubborn to
use "proper" (Pbthhhh) grammar and one woman can only do so much. On
that note there will be no comments about grammar, spelling, tense, or any
other highfalutin concepts, or I shall bring out the BanHammer and bop you back
into the interwebs.
Finally, we both hope you enjoy this blog and it helps us to keep connected
to our small but great network of friends and family.
God Bless,
Matt and Danielle!
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Good luck with all this!
ReplyDeleteUm, where are the pictures? Matt, did you really most of this? I liked it - always said you would be a writer someday. I'll take a blog as proof that I was right (as always) ;)
ReplyDeleteOops *really write most* - someone needs to edit my grammar
ReplyDeleteI agree with Laurie, we have a writer in the making! Well done and I look forward to seeing the progress! Thanks for inviting us into the journey :)
