Uncle Pete

My brother's wife gave birth to healthy boy a few hours ago. I suspect we will be going to visit them sometime soon. They live 5 hours away so it's not like we can just drive down there for the afternoon.

Well, that's all I have to report tonight.

And of course I know that hardly anyone will be interested in my other blogs. But you might want to go back and read number 3 in the last post. That reason is the most important one. I'm not doing it to entertain anyone. Hell, even this blog, or the last one, isn't entertaining. I only started this one up again so I could tell the people I know would be interested, and possibly a few others, about the other blogs. And of course to post about my fabulously boring life. So don't expect much to come from this blog.

Plans

So since I'm going to create 3 other blogs, I better have a plan right? Well, first off, I probably won't be writing in this blog very much. As you can tell from the title, this blog is about my boring life. As there is usually nothing worth mentioning going on in my life, then this blog will remain almost untouched. The other blogs will be a different story.

There are three reasons for creating the other blogs:

1. What Tom said in his comment on my last post. lol

2. To teach others who want to learn or further their knowledge of the blogs particular subject.

And the most important:

3. I have always said I was going to write a book about the Civil War and possibly about my other areas of interest. These blogs will act as an area for me to organize things in order and to also go into detail about a lot of things. It's kinda hard to explain, but you probably get the idea.

For the Civil War and WWII blogs, I will start at the beginning and work my way to the end (obviously). I will examine reasons for the wars, then write about the battles all the way through to the end of the war. After that, I will write a little bit about what resulted from the war, and what happened after.

Not sure how to go with the Titanic blog. I think everyone knows the story already. So that one might not last too long. lol

So, there you go. My map for my other blogs. Sorry there really isn't more to write about here yet. I'm not sure how many of you will be interested in reading my other blogs, but like I said, they are for me really. You are welcome to read and comment if you want.

A Comeback

So, I've decided to come back to blogging. I was only able to make it one week.... or was it two? Anyway, I really missed this part of it. I said before that this was taking up a lot of my time. Remember that? Well, I guess it really hasn't lol.

I will also be creating 2 more blogs with room for a third. One will be focused on Titanic related stuff, the other will be focused on Civil War stuff. If I create a third, it will be focused on World War II stuff. As you already know, I have a huge interest in the Titanic and The Civil War. My interest in WWII is just really starting to develop. I've had an interest in it before, but not to the point where I wanted to study it, and now I do. These other blogs will be used to further my knowledge in their specific subject areas, as well as anyone who wants to read them. There are practically no Civil War related blogs on Blogger, so this will be a first that I know of. The same goes for Titanic blogs and World War II blogs... I think anyway.

I will try my best to update each of these blogs as often an I can. The WWII blog will require a lot of research to post something, so that one might not be up and running for some time. The other ones will also take a little while to get up. I have a basic plan for them, but that's it.

I hope I can get some of my regular readers back here, and also over to my other blogs once they get up.

So, anyway, hello again!! lol

Oh, and there are some Alex updates that have happened. Some happened before I shut the blog down, but they were overshadowed by everything else.
