This blog has evolved from serving as a baby scrapbook and newsletter to the new grandmas (the Pitter Patter Periodical) into a new site (GoJoyceGo) that functions as both a personal journal and a family record that I’ve allowed all of you access.  I hope that some of you benefit from the information on brain injury, others from an opportunity to see and read about the culture of my family.  The rest of you who don’t care about the previous two subjects can see how cute my kids are.  (I know who you are, those of you who come here just for the pictures.)

If you have subscribed to the RSS feed for this blog, you may have noticed that some posts are back-dated.  That’s because I don’t always have the time and/or energy to complete a post, or edit it before submitting.  So I keep it as a draft on my server, and hope for an opportunity to revisit the post.  This morning I counted nearly three dozen drafts.  A few are difficult or longer pieces from as far back as 2007 that still need careful thought and writing.  To keep my record straight, I try to remember to note if I’m finishing something after the assigned publish date.

So, if you’re wondering what the backdating is about, or if some day a long time from now *I’m* wondering what the backdating is about, well, there it is.
