Bon Jour!!!

My word for 2009 is shine. Ali Edwards is so inspiring. I love that she listed everyone's words. The reason I chose this word is nothing compares to watching my children shine. I am really enjoying seeing the growth, hearing their music and the sound of laughter when they are on the computer or have friends over. I like the thought also that stars don't shine ALL the time. The clouds, fog or rain may get in the way, but you know some day you will see that twinkle in the sky. My biggest goal is to concentrate on the good. I have my book I made in Kollette Hall's class in Creative Escape. I am looking forward to starting this.
I am still feeling under the weather, but I am glad the high fevers are gone and I can sleep at night. I am looking forward to sharing pictures and thoughts on Paris. I want to show pictures of my completed 24 days of Christmas book. My goals for this month is to set up a Lollyshop. I have thought a lot about this and I would like to give it a try. I love the thought of it. If you know me I always wanted to have my own store. It makes me feel like a little girl........."I want a Lollyshop"!!!!! I also would like to find a job. I have gotten quite good at sending resumes by email, but it frustrates me to hear nothing. So, this month I am going back to the phone and try to talk to HR depts----wish me luck. I truly believe everything will be fine in 2009, after all it is our time to shine!!!!!
