My blogging has been rather sporadic lately. Life has just been full and not necessarily of fun fuzzy good stuff but just of stuff sucking the energy out of me. At the beginning of this year I made a pact with myself to stick with my gratitude listing. Even if I can’t seem to keep up with posting several times a week, I will at least continue this. Of course you all may get rather bored just reading my list week after week with nothing else thrown in. BUT I am working on it. I promise!
I have some big exciting stuff coming up. I am moving this old blog in celebration of my 40th birthday and the blog’s 2nd Anniversary. So help me decide:
Do I move the blog now? (just so excited I can hardly stand it)
OR
Do I practice self-control and move it closer to my birthday? (a week and a half away)

This week I could hardly believe it when I actually secured an EARLY BIRD ticket to Relevant ’11. I had a really good time at Relevant last year. It was great to meet so many Christian women bloggers. If you are going to Relevant this year give me a shout out in the comments and link up with me on facebook and twitter… over there in my sidebar ->
