gather up the cheers and knit them into a little more gumption

...from sitting here giving and receiving cheers and reading and writing comments.

I think I’ll gather up some gumption and go do something else for awhile. Maybe I’ll plant some flowers. :)

...it’s been so far today, and I’m happy to notice that Lynn just gave me my 4000th cheer this morning. 4000 cheers! Wow, that’s a lot of cheers! Thank-you, everyone! :)

And, just now I was happy to wish Ru~, who originally gave me this goal, a Belated Happy Birthday. She and her goals and entries are so full of gumption and are an such inspiration to me. Thank-you, Ru!

So now, let me turn off my computer and use some of that gumption to get a few things done today on this beautiful afternoon that’s just beginning, and not let it go to waste.

Gumption shall be the operative word for the month of April. Gumption to love, support, create, work, earn, learn, teach. I’m going to run into the water full speed knowing it cold every day and do the best darn job I can. God help anyone that tries to stop me because I have power.

So there.

What a wonderful concept.

Wow, 3000 cheers received! Thank-you, all givers of cheers! I’m hoping to use them to create a little more gumption. Gumption is a very good thing. I’ve got some knitting to do.

and gathering up cheers in order to knit them into a little more gumption. I REALLY COULD USE A LITTLE MORE GUMPTION TODAY.

These 49 people have sent me cheers and comments over the past week or so. Some are regular correspondents, and some I don’t know too much about. It is kind of exhausting trying to keep up with it all. But it’s also fun and interesting. Thank you to all my correspondents.

Now where did I put those knitting needles?

go to ru~, who originally wrote this in a supporting comment to one of my entries.

I was noticing last night that I’ve now received over 1000 cheers. And scanning through them this morning, there are such a variety of people. Some have gone on to cheer others, or stop cheering altogether, and some I continue to receive cheers from faithfully. It’s so awesome to think about how the goals that I’ve listed and the entries and comments that I write here can be read by people all around the world. I am grateful for everyone’s cheers.

Now, time to do some knitting.
