Attempting to Get Back on Track!!!

A dear friend recently starting blogging again, after a two year hiatus, and it's motivated me to try to get back on track with my own blog!  If you look at the number of posts in the sidebar, you'll see that there's been a real "slowdown" in posting this year.

Many fun and interesting things continue to happen, but I just haven't been motivated enough to sit down and share them with you.

For instance...I didn't post about our super fun trip to the North Shore over Memorial Day weekend...






..or anything about performing in "Les Miserables" in June...truly one of the most AMAZING experiences of my theatrical "career", and one of the most challenging roles I've ever played...



...or about how much fun I had seeing my friend Tena in "Honk", and hanging out in Fairfield in early July (even though it was REALLY hot and humid), and then spending a few quiet days in Tingley...






...or how I went BACK to Fairfield a few weeks later to perform with great friends in a variety show called "Coming Home, Coming Together" at the Sondheim Center for the Performing Arts (and where I had the opportunity to reconnect (briefly) with SO MANY AMAZING PEOPLE)...






...or photos and details of Duane's and my trip to Seattle mid-August...





...or about going to mom and dad's for Labor Day...




...or the fun we had with Duane's friend Jenny at the "Taste of Greece" Festival at St. Mary's Greek Orthodox Church...






...or the FABULOUS, and WONDERFUL addition of TWO Hy-Vee stores to the metro area (with one slated to open here in Eagan in the next year or two!)...




...or Duane's and my adventures at Minnesota's Largest Candy Store in Jordan...






...or adventures on the road in the '78 Riviera to explore some of the amazing parks around the area...















...our our quick trip to Taylor's Falls to see the fall "colors"...which weren't quite there yet...even though the local news said they were...





...or our adventures at the Minneapolis Farmer's Market during mom and dad's fun visit a few weeks ago...








...or how much fun my friend Betty and I had harvesting the last of the produce and "winterizing" the courtyard at school...






...or about selling the jelly we made at the Fall Festival this past Friday night at my school...!!!!


 


The truth is...I get busy, and the blog just doesn't "make the cut".  So...in an effort to ONCE AGAIN bore you all with my weekly adventures (or lack thereof), I'm implementing new guidelines...

ONE...A limit of FIVE photos per post (I think that's what really put me over the edge before.  It takes SO LONG to upload photos to this blog...!!!).

TWO...I can't...actually...think of anything else...that first one might be all it takes to get me back on track...so we'll stick with ONE, I guess...!!!

Here's hoping YOU have been able to get back to something that you enjoy, and are making it work for you too!!!!
