A friend of mine . . .

Lives in Australia (Hi Toni!!). I'm wondering if she feels like this right now. After all, they are upside down!!!



It's summer down there right now - H O T. We sure could use a little of that H E A T up here in Texas and probably a few other spots in the USA!  You know I lived in Australia and your arms get very tired from hanging onto the Earth to keep from falling off (well I was pretty young so it might have seemed like that)!

I felt a little like this caterpillar at the end of 2009.  Trying to find which way was up. The end of each year does that to me and I'm really tired of it. If I make one resolution only this year --  it's going to be to change my feelings about the end of the year. You know how everything gets compressed and time just seems to whizz by without regard to what we have to do or accomplish. Well, no more, I'm putting it on my calendar with a bazillion alerts to remind me each month that the end of the year is NOT the time to feel upside down. It does not carry the weight of the whole year on it - it's an opportunity to look forward -- forward to a new year and to hope and opportunities unknown!
