An odd thank you

Like most people here, I post .plans to either say what i'm up to or to get general feedback on what I'm up to. I find it a good way to get to know people and learn some new things.
What ended up happening recently is a bit more then that.

I spoke to my father the other day and he told me that my sister, whom I've never met, had got in contact with him after 40+ years between them and 32 between her and I.

I found out today from my Stepmother that My sister found him by doing a search on his name--which i also share-- and came across my .plans.

If i understand correctly, she didn't even know I existed. So now because of it, she was able to find my father and I will hopefully be meeting her this weekend.

So i guess my babling has finally paid off. Just not in anyway that I ever imagined.

Wierd stuff..

Great! I always knew these blogs were for something, I just never thought it's main purpose was reuniting families.
