I have done things I enjoy at varying times in my life but I am at the point of needing to learn some new things. Nothing like being stuck and chanting "what do I do?" Thanks for the reminder that this question and the answers are worth pondering. <br /><br />I have your book and may just break my after-Halloween pledge to wait and start reading Christmas books. Babies and carpenters are so tempting. Sigh. I am really looking forward to it!<br /><br />Peace, JulieJulie Hilton Steelehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17674573842046580196noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37809871.post-33597211776967855162010-10-30T12:58:12.516-05:002010-10-30T12:58:12.516-05:00Laura,
You're story sounds wonderful and I can...Laura,<br />You're story sounds wonderful and I can't wait to read it. <br /><br />Recently I had to spend four and a half months in the hospital and although that was pretty bad, I learned a valuable lesson. Life is precious. Now I love the outdoors and to feel the sunshine on my skin. I love to sit on the patio with my husband and watch the ducks and geese on the lake where we live. The ocassional deer is an added bonus. I try to enjoy life and not complain about the things I can't change.<br /><br />Wow! That sounds melodramatic, but your post made me think.<br /><br />Have a great day.<br />LindaLinda Warrenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04708577216500308755noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37809871.post-53857330753443509422010-10-29T15:42:39.496-05:002010-10-29T15:42:39.496-05:00I use my time to read and work in my yard.

I came to ...Nice post and it really made me think. I came to writing late in life so now, sitting in front of a compute every day is what I like. But I think it's a common problem for women to not know what they 'like'. Or rather, to not allow themselves to like something (or want it, at any rate). We get bound up in family and putting ourselves second (voluntarily and happily, most of the time). It's a challenge to change that. Having been through a bit of what you're talking about in recent years (did I mention that I came to writing late? lol), it's amazing when you get through it. <br /><br />But, I like to write, I like to ski, read, sail, cook (on occasion and usually for a crowd), walk, hike, laugh. Not bad for a place to start, right?Lisa Ruffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11060848377109602327noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37809871.post-1656292071188483492010-10-29T06:26:36.437-05:002010-10-29T06:26:36.437-05:00Gillian, you sound a lot like me.

And I love to be surrounded by bright, happy colors. :)Gillian Laynehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15772849187702478349noreply@blogger.com
