January 1, 2011--#1
My first blog, my first drink of wine for the year, and my first letter. I have begun this much anticipated journey of my “60” list. Last year when I started the list, I never thought I would be at this point of actually recording what I will be doing for the entire year. The whole process seemed daunting at first, but actually, it has been a source of entertainment—not only for me, but for others-- a discovery of who I am and where I am going, and the joy of receiving support from family and friends. Many who are near and dear to me have contributed to my list and I will not disappoint. Onward to checking goals off the list one “tick” at a time. With Rob (husband) as my logistical watchman and friends and family cheering me on the sidelines, my year will be one momentous achievement after another.
Let the good times roll!
