Relative of the day:  Edith Elizabeth Davis Peters, 1901-1981 (1st cousin, 3 times removed, according to Ancestry.com)

Last year I had great plans to keep a current blog. I made a new blog name (not this one).  I bought a domain name.  I had PLANS.

But then as Robert Burns reminds us:

“The best-laid schemes o’ mice an ‘men
Gang aft agley”

(To A Mouse, On Turning Her Up In Her Nest With The Plough – Robert Burns, 1785)

Last year was full of unexpected moments which prevented any serious blogging on my part.  So this year, I’m going with a lighter form of blogging. I hope you will enjoy the journey through 2013 with me.
