2008 Ramblings - New Beginnings

I am recuperating from a cold/flu after a wonderful three-week trip to Chile. The healing is forcing me to slow down as I regroup in a new direction. My 'work' ended in December. The trip was a good interlude of excitement and variety. Now that I have returned I need to pick up my life and turn it in a new direction:

• The book - I will talk today with Lynne to see if we can move forward;
• Yoga - I have found 3 sessions a week I can begin;
• Writing - I can try to write each day: journey? holiday?
• Genealogy - I can finish transcribing the data from one computer to another
• Clean up the house - Go through and throw things out - let go!
• Relationships - Reconnect with friends; develop new relationships with my grandchildren, creating special occasions; take care of my mother; learn a new relationship with Dennis - after all we are now both retired;
• TTN - Explore programs;
• Painting - Get out the paints on a regular basis/take a course;
• Study - explore local classes and work on Spanish Rosetta Stone;
• Projects - finish up all those little mending projects; get Bose equipment fixed.
• Explore - try something new.

Right now I am looking for the energy to get started. I feel a bit sluggish. I am not discouraged and do not feel that work is pressing - except the spare change is always nice.
