has it really been a month?

It seems like I am busy all the time, but what am I accomplishing? I have been really blessed reconnecting with a few friends recently, keeping busy at work and provoked in my thinking by some really good conversations.

I can't believe we are already half way through 2008 - and in a month I'll be 39! Like many people, the movie The Bucket List got me thinking about things I'd like to do before I shuffle off this mortal coil. For inspiration and motivation I joined a web-community called 43 things. It's fun seeing the rest of the world's ideas and thinking about which ones you'd like to do.

This summer has been all about house projects. The biggest one so far was doing our patio. It looks sooooo nice now. I can't wait till be can share it more with others. Check out the pictures here http://picasaweb.google.com/aalicb/Patio

Well - it's late but I'll try again to keep this more up to date. thanks for reading!!
