FWD:Sleepy old dog staying curled up to avoid this cold morning. We all are.

I made that last entry just before my husband returned from California last year. I'm posting this one just after his return to California this year. Hmmm, a pattern emerges.

I'm back because I know I need goals. Everyone does. Some people may not know they need goals. Lots of people don't want to admit they need goals. I'm not worried about them right now. I need to focus on me. It seems like every thing is going along fine. I'm just going to write it down to make sure. This is an appropriate venue because it is just anonymous enough to allow me to be honest. The only person who really knows me and about this blog is my Mom and I'm frighteningly honest with her anyhow; even when it may possibly lead to some discord. A word of caution; I like lists. I'm a wordy writer at the best of times but give me a list and it can get downright out of hand.

Am I overzealous? Should I limit my goals or will my own insecurities naturally prune the more manic ideas away? I think I'll start small just in case. I'm hoping that writing everything down will highlight any areas that have got out of hand these past few years and make it easier to prioritize effectively.

One thing: Maintain this bog on a regular basis. (Define, "regular") Ideally, daily. Realistically, weekly. When under stress, no less than once a month.

The real list will start with the next post. They should be divided as these are too divergent in intent to combine.

On a side note: The 'L' on my laptop is getting dodgy. Pease cut me some slack when it goes mysteriously missing here or there. :-)
