First let me say Happy Holidays to all! About a month ago I purchased Susan Boyle’s newest CD. I love it! There are lots of old (but good) songs and there are a few I’ve never heard before. Since between this post to the blog and the next, we’ll experience the celebration of a new [...]
The Story of my Life, Altered (for a Change)
As you know, a couple of years ago, I bravely stated on this blog that I was going on a diet. I did what I said, and many months later, I reached the goal I had set for myself on that diet. Yippee, right? Well, not so fast… Now, some months after that, I have [...]
TTFN
Dear Friends, I’ve chosen to take some time off from this blog. I will be with you in spirit as I read your entries and cheer you on. I will probably be taking plenty of risks, so I hope I’ll have a lot to report when I return. But, as I wrote in my last [...]
Just do it? I just did it!
I haven’t written on my prescribed day in a while. I guess I should be ashamed since it’s my own darned blog. And I could certainly go there with myself. But I’m not going to do that – not today, anyway. I am simply going to check in, and let you know that, even though [...]
At the Last Minute
I have no idea where the time went between my last post and this one. I know we went to Atlanta to attend the graduation of a granddaughter. Maybe that was it. Time flew. Suddenly, today I was aware that I have to write, for my turn on the blog is tomorrow!!! Yikes! So, I [...]
Revisiting a Risk
My first Risk a Day blog entry was about relaxing — specifically, relaxing about my daughter’s home school education. I wrote that worrying about her education made me feel I was doing something about it, when in truth I was just keeping my brain busy. I did relax, mostly, but I didn’t stop thinking about [...]
How We Spend Our Days: Adjusting My Social Media Balance
Dear Twitter: We’ve spent some good times together. And there are still times I need you. Times I want you. But you’re too demanding of my time, my energy. I’m leaving you – at least for a trial separation. Yes, there’s Facebook, but I’m thinking of leaving Facebook, too. I need more time for me. [...]
Risky Swimming
Happy New Year! I know it’s past the middle of January but it’s the first time I’ve been able to say that to you all. I wish good things for you this year of 2011. I hope it will be a year of good health, happiness, and finding risks to take that will open your [...]
A Risk Review
Throughout the time that I’ve been contributing to this blog, I have often written my entry prior to the date to which I’d committed (the 31st of the month in whatever months have a 31st), even though I’ve never actually published it early. In the past, I’ve usually done that because I wanted to get [...]
Taking a “Calgon” Moment
Oh no!! I missed my blog again last month and am a day late on this month’s entry!! To be honest, my head is spinning…..I just finished music directing a show, then packed up our house, moved to a much bigger one, am monitoring the renovation of our former kitchen and am now trying to [...]
