Thanks to Marrie for posting this on our classroom blog. Interesting….fits right in with my premise that you can get work done in 15 minute bites.

Our last day in Mammoth. I could live here all winter. It’s been a good time, writing-wise, I’m happy to say. I do believe my writing self has caught up.

Hard to believe it’s 2009, isn’t it? Yikes.

Instead of resolutions, this year I’m thinking of five new things I want to do. Resolutions have never worked for me–not beyond a few days or weeks. But new things … I like that.

I was reading through an old notebook from 1979-1980 and found this quote, which I still like very much:

“We cross invisible borders and never know they were there, until we look back.” – W.H. Manville

I’m still mulling over what my five things will be, which borders I will cross, knowingly or not.

How about you–resolutions? Five new things? Ten? Even one….

In any case, here’s wishing you a stellar ’09. May it be the best yet.
