my reading has been put on hold.
I have been reading this series for almost 3 months.
pretty sad - you might say.
I am letting it melt into the blank crevaces of my brain
It has been a great read.
Nothing to speed home from work for...
however I have learned more from the first 2 books
(as I am not quite finished w/ book 2...ALMOST)
than I ever learned from any Sunday School lesson
and my understanding has developed into a greater appreciation.
It's a wonderful book to be reading right now.

while attempting to accomplish my previous post
I have set a few other
New Years Resolutions:
1. I will simplify my life:
*I will put family first. This last weekend there was a Relief Society Stake meeting...which I heard was amazing. However, I have - for 2 weeks - planned on this week to de-junkify and simplify my living space. With chastising words from a couple of places and a few frowns, I stood my ground.
My house is 1/2 way dejunked....I spent time with my family teaching my kids how to help dejunk. And I did not regret one minute of it.
2. I will make decisions that I will not regret:
*I will be ME. I will not attend meetings nor gatherings in which I feel that I might have my Individual Worth trampled upon - I will not let others make me feel sad, down, or as if I am not of worth. I will try to not hold in my personal opinion...but will (in a kind/loving/opinionated manner) be honest with myself and those around me....this last year I suffered inside tremendously until I blew up @ my surprised Mike --- many times between the months of Oct - Dec. (sorry babe!)
3. I will decide my direction in life:
*I will REALLY TRY HARD to decide what I want to be... a school teacher? a nurse? a couple other things that are kind of embarrassing to post.... we will see.
I will be more
me.

Good for you. Whenever I feel overwhelmed I slow down and "listen" to what I can say no to regardless of who won't like it. It helps so much to feel you have some control over what is going on in your life. Good luck, and let me know if there's anything I can do to help.

Here's a quote I thought of from Napoleon when I read your post: "The people to fear are not those who disagree with you, but those who disagree with you and are too cowardly to let you know." You are no longer to be feared!
What do you mean nothing to rush home for?!?:} JK... I know how you feel. I felt like I have a personal relationship with the characters when i finished the series.
