Love your lesson list and your loves and how both get down to what is really important in our lives: family, friendships, marriage--being with the people, not letting the technology (or all of those tasks) take over. Ideas and learning excites me too. <br /><br />Cheers to a fun challenge! <br />Lee Ann<br /> Lee Ann Spillanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04650009312001849617noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5541225190674240457.post-44179228598593911622013-03-02T09:21:30.349-08:002013-03-02T09:21:30.349-08:00Welcome!

I'm hoping my sons' time with the Cub Scouts will teach them the same kinds of valuable lessons.<br /><br />I find some of my best ideas develop in the shower - I really need a waterproof notebook. maria.selkehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12052847577940056985noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5541225190674240457.post-34180210208238363662013-03-02T06:13:51.677-08:002013-03-02T06:13:51.677-08:00Welcome to the Slice of Life Writing Community!

I also connected with getting the ideas while taking a shower-and quickly getting out to jot down thinking!<br />Thanks for sharing!Amy Ruddhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18177520075043676835noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5541225190674240457.post-75100810545008497642013-03-01T22:58:55.845-08:002013-03-01T22:58:55.845-08:00Wow...such a beautiful first slice! :) I especiall...Wow...such a beautiful first slice! :) I especially like the part where you talk about the things that will never change. I'm totally with you on the writer's notebook thing, the book ALWAYS being better than the movie thing, and the 'not all who wander are lost' thing. Keep challenging yourself to learn, for that's what life is all about. If we're not learning, what are we doing? Welcome to the SOL challenge! hope you have a blast!<br />~JenniferAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5541225190674240457.post-55140309297324696142013-03-01T21:20:20.290-08:002013-03-01T21:20:20.290-08:00I have not read that one Cathy, but will add to my...I have not read that one Cathy, but will add to my list and call the library tomorrow!

You have such a way with words. You write with such voice that I feel like I'm sitting and talking with you. Trish, I loved this line, "There are certain things that just won't change, no matter what gets invented or reinvented." I had to smile at the list that followed (great mentor text, I think). It made me wonder if you've read the book, "Wonder," by R.J. Palatio. I'm guessing you have, but if you haven't add it your list right now. Better yet, go track it down. It speaks the ending you shared here. I'm quite certain it will make your list of things you love. <br /><br />By the way, impressive links. I'm wondering what you will learn tomorrow.<br /><br />Welcome to the fun!<br />CathyCathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08233792477358685156noreply@blogger.com
