This blog was my idea, but I am hoping that eventually Jett will be as invested in it as I am.  Yesterday I suggested that she post something.  “What should I post?” she said.  “Whatever is on your mind” said I.  Jett, who had had yet another really bad day at work, just scowled at me and said “I don’t think you want to know what is on my mind.”  She was probably right.  I will have to wait until she is in a better mood.

Yeah.  Could be a while.

In the meantime, I have written a page about our first RV shopping trip and how our thoughts coalesced around what kind of RV we should be looking for: “Window Shopping”.

I’m not sure Jett has even read these posts yet.  Maybe once she reads them she will have something to say.  Hopefully something I will want to hear.

Sometimes even small victories feel great.  I got the links to work!  I now know how to link a post to a page!

So far the biggest problem I have encountered is the links.  I wanted to put a link from my first post to the “Genesis” page, but no luck.  I entered the link in HTML but as soon as I switched to a visual mode it got erased.  I need to figure this one out.  Soon.

In the meantime, I have created a new page: “Budgeting Doodling”. It describes my first back-of the-envelope calculations and how I decided (prematurely, as it turns out), that early retirement was feasible.

I wrote “Genesis” today – my first page! The blog is underway!
