So we’re not to the “Awesomely Different Life” part yet, but there have been many changes. My job will be changing this year, I just don’t know how, and how it changes will dictate how I respond to it – whether I stay or go, and if I stay how it will change and I’ll be more effective. Clint is contemplating college, I’m working on my health – arthritis and weight/diabetes – and hoping the water aerobics at CSM will make a big difference there; I’ll find a way to live with the inconvenience because of the difference it will make. I have a husband who loves me, every single day, and is there for me no matter what, and I for him. Might sell the house this year, might not. We’ll make a plan, with or without college, with or without a different home, and build our “awesomely different life” together, one step at a time!

Entries from people on this team:
One of our goals is to get a new house. That’s not going to happen within the deadline, but we have taken the first steps. I painted the borders in two rooms, and we picked out new wall colors for two other rooms.
My sister and her boyfriend helped us do some landscaping yesterday to make the outside more presentable.
I bought a new camera a couple weeks ago… a Sony Alpha 350. One of my long-term goals is to become a better photographer, and I think this will definitely help.
Got my stock broker’s license the other day, and a nice raise to go with it! That takes care of the professional side of the awesomely different life for now.
Next step, buy a new computer. And a NEW, new computer so I won’t have to return it this time. That’ll happen in the next few weeks.
After that, buy a good camera. The one I have now isn’t quite enough for the photography that I want to do. That should happen in April or May.
I also need to check into Photoshop classes at the local community college. I have Photoshop, but I don’t know how to use it yet. When I have the new computer, I’ll have enough disk space and horsepower to do some messing around.
I’m so proud of you for passing the first phase of your test! And I’m proud of us for reevaluating the house situation, being ready to look at the money situation (after your last test) and making some decisions about our future together. I love you, so much!
I passed my licensing exam the other day!
I’m also planning to buy a new computer later today. Well, a used computer, but new to me!
