Tell us about your writing space. Where do you write your blog posts?

I can write my blog posts on my iPhone, my iPad, or on my laptop. I have written posts on my iPad with a keyboard, but I still prefer writing on my laptop. I like the full size keyboard. I usually write at my counter table in my family room sitting on a stool. I like to be in the hubbub of activity going on in the house.

NaBloPoMo and Giving Thanks on Facebook

NaNoWriMo started sending me e-mails in mid-October about National Novel Writing Month. I have never participated in NaNoWriMo, but it did lead me to NaBloPoMo two years ago. I didn't participate in either last year and decided to try NaBloPoMo again this year. After I posted my first blog post in a long time, I got on my Facebook page and saw friends posting things that they are thankful for, and it reminded me that it was November, the season of Thanksgiving also. As the first day of the month was coming to an end, I decided to post my thankful things on Facebook as well as participate in NaBloPoMo.

So far, so good. I believe that I have posted on both for the first four days of the month. But, each day, I have forgotten about one or the other until the very last minute. I am hoping as the month goes on, I will start to post one right after the other or that the posts will start to crossover.

At the end of the month, I think that I will do my last blog post on the things that I was thankful for in November! We'll see if I remember...

Extra Hour

With the turning back of the clock we get an extra hour today. I am not sure exactly how I spent mine. I could say that I got an extra hour of sleep. I could say that I spent an extra hour outside or doing chores or cooking. I guess my point is that no matter how much time we are given, it is never enough. Live each day, each hour, each minute to the fullest with no regrets!

In Loving Memory

Mon Chaisurat passed away today. She was my grandmother on my mother's side. Because of Facebook, I was able to find out about her passing within 15 minutes of it happening. My cousin messaged me when he saw that I was online.

NaBloPoMo Day 1

I am trying it once again! Last year I gave up NaBloPoMo last year for NoBo, training for a 5K. This year, it just seems like a good time to get started writing again.

If you found one million dollars in the morning and had to spend it by nightfall, what would you do with the money?

I would pay off all of my family's debts and then pay for dream vacations as well as invest the money for college educations for my children.

Happy 39th---

Well, I have made it to 39. Not quite the big 4-0, but close.

Just survived another Valentine's Day, my 28th if my count is correct. Maybe next year will be the last; it will be bittersweet!

Still working on Project Life, thinking about taking pictures everyday or having a spread for every week. Not sure how it will all turn out. Gave up on the Collect at the end of January. Too many gadgets to carry around to document life events on.

I have a friend that is doing 13 half marathons in '13. I know that it could not be a goal that I could achieve, but I have thought about doing 13 5k races this year in the same spirit. I have about six already on my schedule, so what is another seven? We will see where this goal leads me.

I did invest in a new camera two weeks ago and am itching to start another fleece project, but work has also kept me pretty busy. Need to update the Smash books and do some de-cluttering. Thought that I was going to get all these things done this weekend, but really need a break to relax, rest, and recharge, so who knows what I will get to, but definitely need to do some laundry.

At 39 I am very fortunate to have my family and friends with which to share my good times and bad. Looking into the future, I have Disney to look forward to next year! GO MICKEY!
