*shrugs* I’ve been around. But it’s time to touch base and blow some dust off.
Here’s a sensible recap since my last post… which was many moons ago.

The concept of a book club has always been intriguing – it’s a chic thing to do, a fun social activity among friends or other groups. But I’ve never been able to commit. I don’t read very quickly, and if I’m not drawn to a story, or real life distracts me, I fail miserably. So that’s why I never said yes. Until now.
My youngest sister, Maia, asked us (Melissa, Michael, and I) if we were interested in participating in a Read-a-Thon (“Paloozathon”) she’s hosting from the 18th-31st, in celebrate of her and her best friend’s birthdays (August babies).
The goal is to read 8 books in that amount of time. Insert the popular gif of the guy blinking and doing a double take! That was a surefire way for me to not do this. I barely finish one book in two weeks.
I think one of the sweetest things in life is a handwritten card. I love it, sending them out and receiving them. There are different occasions to send notes and letters. Birthdays, thank you’s, sympathy, special events, or just because. To the recipient, it’s a physical sign of good thoughts being sent his or her way. Plus, what’s cooler than opening up your mailbox and seeing a colorful envelope among the bills?
Do you write? Maybe not in a sense for the words to be published, but do you take notes?
In a journal that you use for personal reasons? On the computer via Google Docs or Evernote? Or if you have to be creative for work, like me, have something nearby to jot down work, goals, or thoughts?
If the answer is “yes”, do you go back and look at those notes?
