HYC Tuesday CI

From the pool today...
"It's time to start living the life you've imagined."  Henry James
Saw the message board today and was glad to see a new quote.  At first just thought, that is nice but it did not seem to spark much new.  Jumped in and OH the water was cold today.  As the workout brought my brain around to being fully awake you've imagined kept nagging sharper and sharper.  A thought came around, that imagining had sort of stopped.  Just walking through and getting things done had taken root.  Settled? Stuck?  Asleep at the wheel?  In years past there were lots of dreams and thoughts of who, when, how, what... no not that maybe this.  Recently several sharp nagging pokes on this theme have tried to be felt, just mindlessly swatted away them like mosquitoes.  Maybe it is time to listen before sharper ones are sent.  
What a day for a lifedream..

My Challenge ticker

My personal challenge starts 6/13/09.  
It is to get to, or as close to the goal as possible by next March.
I have stepped out of my comfort zone and signed up to chaperon a school trip.  
So! do not want to go on this cruise in this shape.
