If I'm not off hiding somewhere with a good book, chances are I'm chasing a kid or a dog or sleeping, because every mom can use a nap! I found Prince Charming and married him, and now we enjoy the idiosyncrasies of life in an old farmhouse. Oh yeah, and we root for the Buckeyes. Every time.But…
Well, it’s turned out differently, but I’m working on my attitude about change. And, of course, there are always small successes, if not the other kind, right? :)
1. I bought some new jeans. And they fit! (I get absolutely nothing from telling you where they’re from. I can tell I’m going to be a lifelong, raving customer.)
2. I finished a novel that I’ve been working on for far too long (months?), and it was amazing! (Both the feeling of finishing it AND the excellent writing/plot/EVERYTHING). Now to review it…maybe next week’s success?
3. My Lenten fast this year has been something small. But the success in that has been that I’ve been keeping with it…and quietly. I think a few of the people in my life, the ones who know me oh-so-well, know what it is, but I’ve been really focusing on not talking about it this year. (So mentioning it here doesn’t count, does it?)

FANTASTIC list, and #3 sounds terrific, and we don’t need to know!
Change sure is hard, is it not…ugh! Thanks for having grace about it, and reminding me to try the same.
Much love!
