Ready . . . Set . . .

I'm not ready for "GO" yet. This blog is my first attempt and I realize I am not very savvy so it will take awhile.

I really admire some of the blogs and their bloggers (or is it the other way around?). Some have such beautiful formatting. That is, after all, the reason I wanted to challenge myself. I have admired the women who have created so much.

So, why have I decided to do this now? I always have believed in change--it is the essence of our lives. I believe in the challenges it brings and the growth in ourselves. I expect 2008 to be a year of change for myself. Every year is but this year I want a way to reflect upon the little things that happen daily. This journal will give me a chance to ponder those moments.

I have missed two days of work because of illness and there seemed to be some chaos--a little more than usual that is! But tonight I recognize that several co-workers were very positive among this chaos. I have always strived to surround myself with positive people. Today I appreciated the reactions of three of those women. Tomorrow I will tell them! Tell them before the chaos of another day that is!
