Black Hole and reasons to keep a history.

Sorry no pictures to go with this one. I have embarked on this project of better organizing my photos on my computer and scanning in the photos I don't have digital copies of. (ok...I'm paying my niece to do the scanning)...anyway... I have discovered a black hole in my life from October of 2005 through Pie's birth in February. I have zero photos from that time period. Now if the black hole were say March, April, May and nothing exciting was happening I could understand, but Thanksgiving, Christmas, and Sport's birthday in January...nada..zip..zilch. I went to pull out my family calendar from 2005 to see if I could jog a memory as to what we did that year for the holidays. 2005 is the only calender missing from the stack. ok kinda weird. It's making me a little crazy that I can't remember anything from that time period. They say we forget more than we remember and it is sooo true. There is a reason we are counseled to keep journals and histories of ourselves and our families. Thank you blogger, so for it's the only journal I've actually been able to keep on a regular basis.
