And so it begins....

I cannot honestly say what inspired me to begin a blog. I certainly am not struggling with boredom- between working towards graduating with a BSW, applying for graduate school, working forty hours a week, volunteering with a local hospice, and still finding time for the fiance, I definitely do not have idle hands.

However, I do think that my lack of free time lead to the decision to find an outlet- a form of expression. My wonderful fiance tells me I spend too much time with everyone else, and I often forget myself. I used to paint. I miss that. I used to read multiple novels a week- now I'm lucky when I can finish one within three months. So, I guess I have finally decided (with the help of my love) to set aside some time to myself- some time to accomplish whatever there is that I have not accomplished yet (and maybe read a few books and paint some landscapes along the way.) Thus, I have begun a blog... to track, inspire, and improve whatever I can- in the few moments that I have.

I gladly invite whoever is interested to follow along. Maybe you can teach me something. Maybe I can teach you something, too.

On a somewhat related note: Sometimes I wonder if I set too many goals for myself.
I'm assuming they all make me a better person- but who really knows?
