Quote of the day

Think not of the amount to be accomplished, the difficulties to be overcome, or the end to be attained, but set earnestly at the little task at your elbow, letting that be sufficient for the day. 

~Sir William Osler, physician, 1849-1919

More from Becoming a Life Change Artist

p.  40
We may overestimate the magnitude of risk we might take in changing our live, and underestimate our personal ability to successfully navigate such a change. Many of us also mistakenly believe that we  must fully understand and be happy with the potential financial consequences of a life change.  And that belief also causes us to assume that we need to know in advance our exact life circumstances if we are make a change.  None of these constraining assumptions is true.

Choose what you pay attention to; do not let others choose for you.

Waffling (and frozen yogurt) on a Sunday

Just pondering the structure of this blog -- thinking about adding some more book-specific stuff, including a list of books I read each month, a list of mini-challenges I'm participating in, etc. Wondering if that's something I'm really going to want to keep up with and thinking probably not. :) Also considering changing the color scheme. I completely understand that these are not decisions of consequence, never fear.

I need to learn a bit more about our digital camera (a hand-me-down from my husband's parents several years ago) so that I can incorporate images more often around here.

I'm taking advantage of this last hour of Sabbath and letting myself just play around a bit on the computer while listening to Pandora.

We went to church in Boulder this morning and then Fiona used some of her birthday money from Grandma Connie and Grandpa Don to buy some new Crocs (pink with an orange maple leaf Jibbet) and to then take the three of us out for sushi and frozen yogurt. It's sunny here in Denver today and it was lovely to walk around Cherry Creek as a family.

This afternoon was a nice prelude to turning 34 tomorrow!
