Though I have been participating in the blog challenge of blogging every day of 2009, my blogging dashboard tells me this is overall post #300!!! YAY!!! Who would have thought? I hope in all those blogs I have said things worth reading, that you have taken away with you and enjoyed, or at least thought more about. I have loved keeping this blog and it’s been a fun challenge to do it every day. If a post is short, it’s not because I have nothing to write about, it’s more that I’m really tired. I need to remember to write earlier in the day sometimes.
Tonight I have several things on my mind. I spent time tonight going through books and so what to do with all those is one thing on my mind. Anyone interested in Jane Austen, Shakespear, or the Chicken Soup for the Soul Books? I also have a pile of textbooks from college I doubt my local used book store will take. It’s going to take a while to find good homes for it all with people who will appreciate these piles of books more than I do.
Tomorrow I get to have coffee with a friend I am really looking forward to spending some time with. I could use some grounding and perspective right now. The other good news is my roommate and I both have gotten our hair cut now so we have stopped wandering around the house complaining how long our hair is which would look absolutely ridiculous to anyone with hair longer than your ears. Even with my short hair, you would be amazed how much of it ended up on the floor this morning.
Here is a quote for your pondering mind tonight: “The excursion is the same when you go looking for your sorrow as when you go looking for your joy.” Eudora Welty
