I did indeed get some good rest. In fact, I've only been sleeping about 5 hours a night since then, and NO NAPS! But, I'm sure that will change again soon! I'm on a decluttering, organizing AND writing journey this week.BECKYhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15184458949017900541noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3412682543148147625.post-28478798053365203212010-08-01T19:19:07.636-05:002010-08-01T19:19:07.636-05:00Hi, Becky,

I have read many of her books and have always admired her. Take care and enjoy a terrific upcoming week~ VickiVickihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12160280748777756207noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3412682543148147625.post-49789625682595379502010-08-01T17:07:39.868-05:002010-08-01T17:07:39.868-05:00You can never go wrong with an Erma quote :-) Gosh...You can never go wrong with an Erma quote :-) Gosh I miss that woman.

One of my fav sayings is "Run with the motors and leave the anchors behind". Meaning: hang with the like minded and positive people. Leave the ones who are "not so much" behind! I have to say, I know I've read this before, but today it reaaly hit me. I read your header about "proof that dreams come true.." and how in your 40's you've been writing. OMG that is SO me. I wrote activly in <br />my late 20's..then it went dromat for awhile..then the babies came. Now at 44 I am finding my voice again and pursuing that dream again! My kids are still small and I work full time so it's VERY hard. BUT I will git 'er done.It's really nice to know I am not alone :)FranticMommyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02885865040708603121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3412682543148147625.post-39946400770615199672010-07-31T22:02:39.109-05:002010-07-31T22:02:39.109-05:00Hey Everyone!

Any friend of Jennys is a friend of mine. Congrats on the book. I came late to the writing game as well, thought I'd like to do a book but decided I'm much better at blogging. <br /><br />Looks like we have sons about the same age...mine had a birthday on the 21st. Hope you have a great weekend!

They even happen while I'm driving. That is when I call in my reserve driver.<br /><br />I hope your meeting goes well today. I would be intimidated hanging out with so many writers. I do enjoy the small poetry groups I get involved with here on the blogsphere comment loop. Only rarely do I get bitten.<br />I might like to sit in quietly and listen and observe a writers group meeting. For sure there are things to be learned.<br />..Jimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02982249173214655060noreply@blogger.com
