March 30th – April 28th 2009
I define balance as the ability to keep my time and energy aligned with my priorities in life. Items like my career, my relationship with my husband, my care of my household, my health, and so forth are all issues I feel are very important to me. Sometimes I do [...]
My sister asked me for a recipe today, and while I was reading the recipe over, I noticed the cooking instructions for the brown rice were probably a bit short in time. It reminded me of the first few times I tried cooking brown rice, and always ended up with some kind of crunchy mushy [...]
Today I have managed to drag over all my blog entries from my old Blogger account. Needless to say, after many errors, much reading of forums, the answer ended up being offbeat, but easy. I opened a wordpress.com free blog account, and then imported all my blogger posts into that account. From [...]
Well, I tackled a fear that has been building for almost two months now. Feels nice <sigh>
Background is probably necessary here.
I have been telling the Country Boy for years that we need to bond together with something fun and outdoors that we will both love. We have tried various other odds and ends, skiing, then [...]
Well, I cannot believe I am on the end of my 30 day. I have been so busy lately, have not been able to tell which end is up, and definitely haven’t been counting down the days. I forgot to post yesterday, and it I did not even know that until I sat [...]

Woohoo! Finally getting a large item off my to do list of home career things. Granted, it definitely does not make a serious dent in my future workload, it is something off my list that will allow me additional focus on other items.
Specifically, I needed to overhaul my home office. Too cramped, [...]
Well, I am not falling off the wagon, but I have definitely stressed the limits of this challenge. Few misses, much more then I have had in my challenge. I think the waking time, work, busy schedule is catching up to me a bit. I am trying to not fret over it [...]
Oh sad sad day. 23 days…….and today, I just could not do it it. I woke at 4:30, and groaned. Head hurting, back tense and tight, I said ‘fine, I will just wait until 5′. 5 am came and went, and I laid there wishing I did not have to go [...]
Better balanced day overall, still making progress on all fronts. Heading into the homestretch, so just need to remember to stay focused. I am already laying out plans for my next challenge, so I have to make sure I do not move forward yet with anything there other then planning.
