"jack of all trade and master of none"

I haven't been blogging for the longest, not because I have nothing to say, just the mere fact that I have to conscientiously make time for it, not always in the mood for it and to top it all I misplaced my password to log in.

Lately however, I have had a yearning for something ELSE, something new to trigger my fancy. A new project maybe, start painting or singing again? I have had this feeling for the longest now, but no bottle to do anything constructive with it.
Now I am 56 and I feel that my menopausal state should be shifting into a burst of energy and new enterprises, I am a little disappointed that head head is not full with new ideas, I just can't find that "one thing" that I should be doing.

I recently discovered that an old friend of mine was into counseling and writings self help books, she was doing pretty well at it as far as I could see.
Another young lady I once admired in my teens is now a singer/song writer/voice coach. How did these people actually came about and fulfill their dreams? I can sing, I give free councilling almost everyday to friends and family but I guess it was never a dream to make any of the two a life time occupation. Maybe be that is the problem! I am not ambitious enough!
Still what is the formula of making your interest and dreams a success?
I have always been a "jack of all trade and master of none" I wish to find that one thing I love and love it enough to take it to another level of mastery.

Looking back on 2009

Placing 2009 in retrospect is basically easy, it was a pleasant year with no real tragedies or exocentric things happening and now I am voicing it, it almost sounds boring as if it just happened. But…..it wasn’t that bad.

· The first part of the year flew by with no extremities I had turned 55 and was very laid back.
· Had a few ins and outs to the doctors/hospital but nothing I couldn’t handle, thank goodness
· It was a really great summer with lots of bbqs and outdoor eating.
· I visited England after 17 years and met up with old school friends
· Met a guy on that trip that boosted my 55year olds ego; when he wanted more, I was strong enough to explained, “I had all the friends in my life than I needed and could handle” Hard but true and simply where I am at.
· Supported my youngest daughter in a TV competition.




· Had an offer to sing in south of France, it fell through!
· Cuts at work but I am still hanging in there
· Damion and Zerrne's last year of study, Zerrne did a crash course! well done guys!
· Ex turned 60
· Had a new grandson is born in March the 5th of March which is the same date as my son, his uncle! Real cool! So that makes it a total of four grand kids and four children!
· Oh I turn 56!!

Goodness, not a bad year. With all my blood thinners, blood pressure and cholesterol medicines I am doing just fine. Hot sweats are less; I noticed it appears in more weather and if I eat dairy products! Bummer I love dairy!
Still this year I will do more zumba lesson, exercise, relax and enjoy more time with my hubby!

Anyway it's my daugter's birthday today SHE'S 30!! and we are going out to celebrate! I wanted to take a nap as I can't do the long night hours anymore...............but now it's too late as I am being picked up in an hour!!!

Happy birthday darling...........




Welcome 2010!!
