Man, last year passed by in a bigger blur than the numbers on my scale! Seems like all I did was race from deadline to deadline. I'm trying to reorganize this year and spend a little more time living life instead of watching it race by. So hopefully I'll be able to drop in more often and meet all the new folks and catch up with some old friends. I've missed you guys!

Welcome back Amydoodle. Slowing down a little sounds like a great idea. Sometimes I blink and wonder where the time went. smile

That's exactly it, Chickadee. I'd like to slow down at least enough so that I don't have to make a date in my planner when I want to blink!

Welcome back Amy. Tell us what you've been busy doing all year. Did you intentionally cut anything out, or are you just working at it day by day?

Hi Dotsie! I cut out some writing jobs that just weren't fun and increased some that have more interest for me and kinder deadlines. Today I actually sat with my son (how'd he get to be 20 already?!) and watched a movie all the way through!

So glad to have you back AmyDoodle! Working is great but when your life starts running you, it's definitely time to take a look at all of it, right?

I hope you can stop by more often and let us know how things re with you. Didn't it feel great to just sit and spend time with your son? They grow up so fast, it's like we blink and they are adults.

Always happy to see your smiling face Amy. Sounds like you are a very busy lady. I hope the movie was at least a good one!

Oh and I love your blog. I am thinking of starting one of my own.

AmyDoodle,
Nice to hear you have made the decision to slow down.
I love your scale/time analogy, because it's so true.
Turn around and a quarter century is history. Geese! Welcome
back! Prayers and blessings,

Yuhooooo....AmmmmmEEEEEE...welcome back you Wii-conqueror! So glad to see you back in here again. Listen, if you want to, just box up that Wii and send it to MOI. (Ladies, read her blog).

Here's hoping you'll stick around and give us some "Doodles" to brighten our days, as only you can do.

This woman cracks me up.
