Not exactly a news flash as I'm sure those around me have known this for years but I'm becoming more cognizant of the fact. I need to remember to shut up more often.Shelleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17007563758020973683noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7800708175251755780.post-52243186985127080142010-07-27T14:19:14.748-04:002010-07-27T14:19:14.748-04:00Yeah - I got the bad singing thing from you.

I also have that boredom thing, but rarely with people or their conversations, which probably explains why I loved being a therapist. Instead I tend to change the things I do in life often - even careers. Not sure just what number I'm on now (teacher, at-home mom, therapist, volunteer counselor etc.)<br /><br />Also as I get older, I'm more into "experiences" - I now want vacations that are experiental - Australia was a perfect example - heliocopter and land on a glacier, sail on a catamaran on the Great Barrier Reef, have dinner under the stars in the middle of the desert (Sounds of Silence) complete with white tablecloths and an astromoner about the night sky, sit with a guide with dark suits, night goggles and earphones and "watch" the fairy penguines come ashore - you get the idea.<br /><br />I also now know since my children are raised, that I need a certain amount of silence every day, have always hated committee-type work, and am more into nature every day.<br /><br />AND, I can go on and on hence my "comment" is a treatise!!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
