Try out 43 Things (read all 2 entries…)
Untitled 2 years ago

I think a lot of us think to ourselves “I wish I could …”, or “I wanna do …”. 43 Things helps me to get off my back-side and actually focus on those things, in small amounts of time so the goals aren’t overwhelming. I like being accountable to someone, somewhere, for actually committing to something, even something as small as trying 43 things! And I enjoy looking back at my goals from a year ago and seeing how many still matter (and how few don’t still matter to me!) Powerful stuff!



have a cat
Timo 2 years ago

On May 25, 2006, our little Timo was born and joined our family just five weeks later. He’s been wonderful to have around, has a different relationship with each member of the family, and is the most playful kitty I’ve ever had (sometimes a bit TOO much so). So glad we have him!



be a good step-mom
A few definitions 2 years ago

First, I guess I ought to have defined for myself what a “good step-mom” is. In the sense that I promote the growth and development of my step-children, I’m an excellent step-mom. But I find it very difficult not to get involved in discipline issues with my kids (which is discouraged by all the leading experts in step-parenting). So I’m certainly a wicked stepmother in their eyes. But…I continue to work on my parenting skills, step-parent or not. :)
