About Me

I am the Mother of two great adult children, Elizabeth 27 years, and Scott 24 years. On September 4, 2010 I gained a new son-in-law in the family - Josh. I look forward to the new adventures this brings our family! I find it difficult to be a human "being" versus a human "doing" and strive to find a peace and serenity.

What's the single most important thing you accomplished in 2010? And how do you plan to top it in 2011? #postaday2011

I have several initial responses to this prompt: I don't care for this one, I have no idea what I would write about, and then I don't really think about my year in a single most important thing....there is the direction I will go! 


I don't see my life, my work, my days and years as in competition to be the most important. I don't like how that feels or what it represents. If this is a single most important then there are so many other accomplishments that are not! 


Here is how I think of the last year:

  • I lived
  • My parents lived
  • My children lived
  • My children both graduated from college (this was an important thing that they accomplished and I had the opportunity to support in many ways)
  • My partner lived
  • I kept my job and had many new opportunities come to me that I could say yes to
  • I made a difference in the lives of others
  • I learned something new everyday
  • I laugh
  • I loved
  • I tried to sleep :) 
How do I plan to top that in 2011?  I plan to do all of the above and get better at the last bullet point...in fact, I'm going to start that now. 

Sweet dreams!
