Getting to know me:
I am blessed with an over active enthusiasm gland and an appreciation of the precious gift of life.

I am trying to break lose of being a hostage "to what I should do."

Do I have the courage to step across the threshold into the exciting world of possibilities?!?

I have lived an extraordinary life. I am living an extraordinary life. I am so blessed.
It amazes me all the places I have seen, the "baskin robbins" of assorted people I have met and the tremendous variety of experiences I have had and emotions I have felt.

Truly, without question, my life has been and is an adventure. Lucky me to have had this opportunity. I never quite fit. Most of my plans and dreams took detours and required Plan B. That has just been part of it. I am blessed and filled with joy at how lucky I am. My regrets are only that I hurt and disappointed some people along the way. I can honestly say, that was never my intention. I don't think there is anything in my life I would change however there are some times in my life that I wish I had a "do over". I believe when we know better, when we understand things, when we learn more, we can do better.

I think it is cool that Charles Dickens said it best in 1859 and it still applies to people living today:
“It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of Light, it was the season of Darkness, it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair, we had everything before us, we had nothing before us, we were all going direct to heaven, we were all going direct the other way – in short, the period was so far like the present period."

Life is a gift. I'm glad I got such a big full one.

Everyone I know. Everyone I love. Everyone is busy, so very busy.



It is so appreciated that this week I got phone calls,texts, messages sent via Facebook, emails, even notes via snail mail and pictures from family, friends and people I haven't heard from in a very long time. I have even heard from people I have interviewed about their cancer experience.

I love newsy notes and am grateful. Time goes by so very fast and I realize that it is often difficult to find time to visit family. It seems if time doesn't stand in the way, money makes it challenging.

I miss my family and friends so much. It was nice to hear about their lives. It seemed to make miles disappear.

Disappointed but remain super excited
My trip and hike up Stone Mountain has been postponed a week. Oh well, it may be cooler and the leaves may be changing so it may work out to be even better. I just need to reset my personal count down clock.

Funny how turbo powered the days are when you look over your shoulder but when you are excited about something coming up they go slow. Of course, in comparrision to how slow the clock moves when you are in a doctor's office or hospital the time is moving fast. When your in those places it literally seems that time comes to a standstill.

Wishing any readers a wonderful Wednesday. May you enjoy this day.

less than 2 weeks to go

About 5 years ago I hiked up Stone Mountain with Rob Price when we were canvassing travel agencies around Atlanta. The other members of our group took the Summit Skyride. Frankly that looked terrifying.

I was proud of myself for making it up and down. Surprisingly down was the tricky direction. You have to be careful not to fall because your body picks up speed.

I have wanted to climb it again as a way to prove to myself that despite age, lack of fitness and surviving health challenges I am still up to the task. It isn't a long climb 1.3 miles but it is up and when you combine the climbing with my fear of heights it is a challenge for me. One that I am very excited about taking again in less than two weeks. If weather cooperates I will climb on Sunday September 18. If it doesn't it will be the following Saturday.

When I successfully make the climb up and down it will be fantastic!
