Introduction to Kate's Busy Life
It is the Extras in my life that bring me such joy, happiness, peace, excitement, tears and laughs. These Extras I have identified are (not in any particular order) Gardening, Family History Research, Ocean Cruising, Music, Reading, Internet Lessons, and Floral Arrangements. Just this past weekend I have resurrected my old skills learned in breaking bread. What a joy one adventure can add to our lives!! The other items that take a chunk of time are (1) managing my health care and working 25 to 30 hours per week in accounting. I am quickly learning an updated version of time management and working toward improving in that area. My plan is to share some of these activities and events with you during the weeks in the future.
I realize that some of you will not be interested in any of these Extras or only interested in some of them at different times in your life. No worry. I just want to stay in touch with you and keep our connections open. Please send me your comments and we will see what develops during the long summer nights.
Love to all
Kate, Sis, Mom, Katrina and who knows what else.
