Blogging to Stay in Touch
Blog post compliments of Grace Perkins
Being the youngest grandchild of a pretty large family, it has always been a challenge for me to stay in touch with all of my cousins. All together, I have around 30 cousins on both sides of the family. It is virtually impossible to stay in touch with all of them, but I always do my best to at least touch base once in awhile. Thanks to Satellite Star Internet service, the process of keeping in touch is not nearly as difficult. For a while now, I have been keeping an open blog with houghes net that has been sent out to each of my cousins and aunts. Not only is it a way for them to see what I have going on in my life, it is also a way for all of them to see what my sisters and other immediate family members are doing.
The blog gives all of my cousins a chance to leave messages, send jokes and tell stories about things they have going on in their lives as well. Ever since I have started keeping my blog, many of my other family members have started using their houghes net to keep a blog as well. I love being able to get on to a website and within a few minutes know all of the specifics about a family members new job or baby.
