Hi Sarah Thanks for your lovely message, it is great to get such positive feedback. Yes, my brother sends 2 of his 3 kids to the community school and they love it. I will actually be visiting Byron in June sometime, to see them, so if you are arou...

I agree about brevity in terms of goals per 100 days, I think it adds power to the whole process to keep it achievable and concievable, thanks for that insight, Sarahxxx

Day 89 - and on we go!

So it is day 89, my blogs have been pretty sporadic actually, and I am thinking next time i may try to blog and video more often because it does actually keep me on track with my intentions. What I have learned is that having a dream is one thing, but actually finding the perserverence over a period of time to make it actually happen is another, and that is where the real work is - well, identifying what you really want, and then making it happen.
So my intentions were to

1. get Asia Pacific Yo… Continue

whew, back on track a little!

Talk about a rocky 100 days. Ever since I started this challenge life has been a....challenge! We have as a family had so many ups and downs and we are under a ridiculous amount of financial stress and pressure, but we have decided to keep on pluggin away, living here in Singapore. Michael has left his job and started his own business and we are on our own, no company to back us up, pay the rent, school fees, health insurance, just little old us in a global 'meltdown' as they call it. I have tim… Continue

ahhhhh! It is Day 63!

I havent written for ages, and in fact I've been avoiding it because i feel bad that things are working out as smoothly as I thought they would. Things all started so well at the beginning, suddenly I had lots of work and was making contacts here there and everywhere here in Singapore. I had the idea of starting a kids choir and in my naivite thought it was such a good idea it would just take care of itself. Well, that was silly, and now I am heading towards an event i set up to talk about the c… Continue

Any comments here? I am a bit stuck, a bit bewildered! Day 32, Sunday 15 Feb 2009 Season 1

All this seems to be flowing for me very well, and at the same time we are in a terrible situation vis a vis my husbands work and it is quite scary because we could lose everything. As long as I stay focussed on my own work I am OK but I have had a few early morning worry times trying not to descend into panic. Found myself worrying about our mattresses the other night! What to do with them if we have to go back to Sydney???? And it is strange and a bit bewildering that on one hand I want to sta… Continue

Nurturing the creative inner life DAY 25, Season 1

I am having quite a rollercoaster time, especially, when I look at it, since starting this 100 day challenge. I've already mentioned a number of things that have happened, and at the same time as I have found the courage and energy to make things happen, I have other challenges.
First is I got sick - managed 2 days at the gym and then got microplasm, which is a kind of "walking pneumonia" (to be dramatic about it!) So I am on heavy duty antibiotics and I am not supposed exercise for 2 weeks. Tha… Continue

Hey Janet,
Thanks for taking the time to responding back. You have a very interesting life. I love the idea of a cultural choir. Singapore is nice been there for 10 days. I like the fact that it was pretty safe. Japan, I just love Japan and the people there. The whole culture is pretty neat. Went to many festivals and parades, would love to go back. Won't be tomorrow but I know that one day, I'll go back. I have fond memories of that place. I wish we had more culture around here. It is pretty limited. Some asians not that many. I miss all the different stores and the different food and yes the different traditions. I would like to be in a more cultural environment like we were in CA. But Utah has its charm too.
Well, drop by anytime. I have been busy lately and haven't been very good at updating my blog. Nothing much has happened so not much to say really. But I need to get back to it and also need to concentrate again on the LOA. I have been off lately and I feel like I need to get back. I'll be picking at your site from time to time. So good luck with the choir and anything else you might start. Enjoy that festival!!!

Hello Jano,
It was a nice surprise to read your comment this morning. Well I can say that we have a lot in common. I have also lived in Asia for about 5 years. We lived in Japan for my husband's job and we visited Singapore for about 10 days about 12 years ago I believe, My time flies!!! At the time we stayed at the Westin Stanford, which has probably changed name now, but it was a fabulous 5 star hotel very well located. We have very fond memories of Singapore, although my husband broke his foot there while falling down the stairs in Little India. Still I would go back in a heart beat. We loved Japan and miss it a lot. The other thing that we have in common is the singing. I have always enjoyed singing and love performing which I did occasionally. You actually do it on a regular basis which is so wonderful. I don't have a musical background at all, I just have a natural musical ear. I will be following your journey because it sounds so interesting. So please keep in touch and thank you so much for adding me as your friend

Hello Janet...I am really looking forward to this experience also! I also loved one of your intentions in particular...."to be more myself"....I think this is something that I strive for daily - I just didn't realize it in this way until I read your intentions/goals....thank you.

You must miss your daughter...mine lives in Massachusetts, she was here for Christmas and we had a great time.

What is Shadow Yoga? Intersted to hear more about that and looking forward to hearing your journey and sharing mine too!

Do you post to YouTube? I am going to buy a camera to start posting/vlogging.

Blessings,

Mere
