As yet another year draws to a close, I am forced into quiet contemplation over the events of the past 12 months which have brought me thus far. I...
- had a major operation
- decided I wanted to be a library technician and started college
- found a half brother I never knew I had
- decided I didn't want to be a library technician and applied to university
- got accepted into university
- started a blog
- organised an end-of-year holiday adventure and
- did very well at university
All done while riding the roller coaster of life as a mother, wife, daughter, sister, granddaughter, daughter-in-law and friend and all the responsibilities these roles entail.
To all you fellow mature age students, mothers, wives, daughters, sisters, granddaughters, daughtes-in-law and friends who left encouraging comments and for your equally encouraging and inspiring blogs - thank you, thank you, thank you. Knowing you are all out there reinforces my desire to continue in my pursuit of knowledge and self-development. X
What an incredible year you have had! I think it's great to look back on the year and know that you have tried new things and have accomplished so much.
ReplyDeleteBTW, a few years ago I found out that I have nine siblings. It still seems so strange to use the word "sister".
Congratulations to you! What will you write about next?
ReplyDeleteWhat a year and the best still to come - visiting London!
