     I sat down the other day and decided to start writing in an online diary AGAIN. Going through all of the online diaries I could find. Now I’ve done this many times but have NEVER finished one or even kept it up more than five days. I'm what you call a procrastinator but only 90% procrastination the other 10% are my hopes, dreams and wants to be able to begin a diary, start reading my bible every day, keep my clothes straight and of course the big one, keeping my car clean.

     So this is it! My last attempt on writing my thoughts, daily activities, Ups, downs and my history. Here I am and maybe just maybe my world might help someone else’s world. God knows the MANY wrong turns I have made in my life and now who ever just happens upon my diary site can learn from me.:) ReferencesDictionary.com. diary. 23 03 2014.
