Well, I've had this blog for over a year now and I'm embarrassed to say- it's almost been a year since I've posted anything. I had such high hopes for this little site and for myself- and yet I keep coming up with excuses not to do anything with it. Primarily- I have great ideas and things I want to write about it- but technology holds me back. Actually, it's my lack of knowing how to use technology that's the problem. So, here's my resolution to get off my duff and just post- make it a habit and hopefully everything else will follow.
Next, I want to mention that recently my good friend B moved far, far away. I miss her so very much. We still talk regularly, but I miss being able to drop by and sit in her kitchen and blab away. Starting out by saying I can only stay a minute and hours later still sitting there. You don't get to have many friends like that in your lifetime, and I for one am so grateful that I have her for my friend. Here's a confession, when I'm talking to her on the phone- I imagine her sitting in her old kitchen. (It's a comfort and a point of reference.)
I can't believe I have to go out of town for another meeting for my job. I'm really dreading it! More so than any meeting I've been to in such a long time. Too much pressure- I'm feeling inadequate and not up for the challenge! Yikes- I better start cramming.
I haven't ever really talked about my husband here. So, know I want to publicly acknowledge how very proud I am of him and the job he is doing with our budding little business and with coaching our son's football team. This is our first year of business and he's blossomed. It makes me happy to see him happy. Thank you God for the grace and the blessing to be able to do this. Next, I'm never more proud than when I watch him on the sidelines coaching a game. He takes this job very seriously, and he's very good at it. I'm so pleased for him that the team is enjoying success in their last year. (Next year the boys are off to high school and new adventures.)
Finally, another chapter of my volunteer life is coming to a close. I'm proud of the work I've done. I'm a little sad to let it go, but it's time to spend time and talent on other endeavors. What that will be, I'm not sure. I think I'm going to take some time off and devote it to my job, family and business. Not necessarily in that order. It's hard to let go of something you started but it's time to move along.
Here's to posting on a more regular basis.
Love, Me
ps- JEH- I'm thinking about you and hoping everything went well with your surgery!
