I’ve not been keeping up with some of the goals and plans I made last month, and I’ve been meaning to give myself a kick in the butt!

However, I must say… you are one of the most amazing and inspiring people I know. With regard to anything you want to do, (with apologies to the Little Engine) I know you can, I know you can, I know you can… 🙂

Hehe… Peter Pam. 🙂

You don’t strike me as a shrinking violet. 🙂

As for seeing the big picture, it is funny you should say that you wish you could show Honey the big picture. Thunder is very much a “big picture” kind of learner. When ever we have struggled with his field training, he has always excelled once he understood the “big picture”. Storm on the other hand will do what you want (or not lol) task by task and that is about as far as she thinks. It is funny that our dogs are related, yet so very different in their thinking.

I dyed my hair for years, just for fun and because I could, rather than because I was scared to see what colour my hair really was. A year or so ago I decided I’d just be me and hoped I’d have pretty silver hair by now (I’m 57) but it’s just ordinary mousey brown with a very light sprinkling of grey. So I’m envious of your silver locks and hope we’ll have an unveiling when it’s all here:)

Another reason why you’re feeling down (as if you don’t have enough!) could be lack of sunshine? I get really blah durning winter for no other reason.

I’m sure your confidence will return, you are a very strong woman and what don’t kill ya only makes ya stronger! Look out world (and squirrels) when Pamela is back:) I know you won’t let how you feel now keep you down very long.

No way I put you to shame. I didn’t blog for two whole weeks.

I like your comment “t’s time to take some chances and take advantage of whatever youth I have remaining.” I think I will too. 🙂

Kuster would be a great teacher. And I bet he’s not at all susceptible to the runny noses and sore throats that your students expose you to.

I’m sorry you’re feeling overwhelmed right now. You’re one of the most amazingly productive and consistent bloggers I know. Maybe it’s time to congratulation yourself and rest on your laurels for a little while.

Thanks for the encouragement. I’ll try to wear my greys with honor.

And make sure you don’t let you husband get anywhere near a 2 x 4. We don’t want him trying to knock any sense into you.

Somehow the combination of the flu, licking my (minor) bike accident injuries, and seeing more and more grey every time I look in the mirror is reminding me I’m no longer invulnerable. It’s time to take some chances and take advantage of whatever youth I have remaining.

You’ve put me to shame. You were a much more productive blogger during your sick than I was. 🙂

Those things take more of a toll on us than we’d like to admit. I’m struggling with a few things right now myself. I can’t seem to find the time I need in a day to get to it all. Since I work in a germ factory, I usually go through a winter every three or four years where I catch every germ that exists.

Kuster is fearless when it comes to climbing on things! I need to learn more about self assurance and confidence from him. I hope Honey overcomes her fear soon so you can expand your world and hers!
