Making Some Changes...

With all that has been going on in my life - getting divorced, moving back in with my parents, and being broke most of the time - I've been contemplating whether or not I can handle continuiung this project. I really hate to quit things, but I am a realist and I know I won't have the time or money to do everything this year that I'd hoped to do. Especially since the year is half over and I'm not even halfway done.

When I told one of my friends about the list, she asked why I wasn't doing 40 things since I was turning 40. Now, why didn't I think of that?!

So, I'm going to knock a few items off my list that I don't think are going to be possible this year and then I can continue without it being yet another source of stress in my life. :)

Halfway to Officially Volunteering for Hospice!

Well, I've gone through the application and orientation processes. So, after I return from my cruise in a month, I'll be assigned a family to work with. I was glad to hear that it is pretty much what I hoped it would be - that the focus isn't on the end of life, but making it as good as it can be while they are still living. I'm really hoping that it will help me not to have such a strong fear of dying.

I've Found Some Great Web Sites for Women!

The First is Brave Heart Women and lots of famous ladies are involved:

Another is SocialJane.com. I'm always looking to make new friends and this is a great site for that!

Taking a Break from Drawings

I'm finding myself quite tight financially, so I can't afford any extras, at least for awhile. I know you will all understand and the purpose of the drawing was to increase the number of followers, which doesn't seem to be working.

I plan to start the drawings again in the fall, but I will probably make some changes to reward solely for referring new followers. Thanks for hanging in with me!
