And away we go...

Well, as pretentious as it seems to me, I am entering the blogosphere. Maybe it's the season, maybe it's an age thing or maybe it's just a whim, but I have decided to take the plunge into blogging. My immediate goal for myself is to use this blog to develop my own attitude of gratitude.

I am a recovering “fixer.” It’s encoded in my DNA. You show me a situation, and I’ll give you five ways you can make it better. I do know that’s not such a good trait. (I did say I’m recovering.) I want to develop a way of seeing that enables me to view my surroundings and be grateful for something just as it is…no bells, no whistles, no glitter or bows…no fixing.

This is a start. We’ll see where it goes.

  1. You're right about the DNA, sis. I'm afraid I have the same affliction. Unfortunately I haven't yet joined the ranks of the recovering. Who knows? Maybe you'll rub off on me.

    I look forward to reading more. Sorry. Am I trying to fix you by pushing you to write more? Maybe I should be grateful for the one post (especially since I only have three lame posts ... all written months ago). At any rate, if I ever have anything to say that doesn't need too much fixing I'll blog again.
