I have always thought about being a writen. In fact, I have been writing for as long as I can remember, so let me be more specific. I have always thought about having a career as a writer. How cool would it be to get paid for something I love doing? How many people actually find jobs they can say they love? Not many. I began today by enrolling in Penn Foster’s Freelance Writing program. I know I didn’t need to, but I like the though of structured learning to keep me on track and motivated right now. The kids are still young and are perfect excuses for not taking time to pursue this goal…I’ll let you know how it works out!

Here’s a big one to start with – I want to write. Always have, always will. So, instead of just thinking about it in abstract, I enrolled in Penn Foster’s Freelance Writing program (again), and plan on working my butt off to learn all there is to learn about beginning a career as a freelancer. I can’t wait to get my materials and get started!! :)
Positive motion...all the time!

I have forgiven myself…I have let the past go. I no longer long for things I used to have, or people I used to know. I am not afraid of the future, and am building a solid foundation, daily, and just enjoying my time on earth! Sounds corny, but I am really happy. Since I started working out more, I find more enjoyment in the every day! It rocks!!
