Thanks to Margie for hosting. You should have arrived from Tere's blog, but if not, you can always check out all of the blogs below.
I can't believe how quickly the first four months of the year have passed. It is sheer craziness.
This month, in the One Little Word class, Ali encouraged participants to write a letter to ourselves (or our future selves). I did write one at futureme.org. I was silly not to think about saving the message, but since I can't go back and see it (it will be emailed to me in a year), I decided to jot down some thoughts and include it in a digital scrapbook layout of sorts with a similar letter to myself. I still haven't gotten around to creating a more traditional book like Ali does, but if I wait to do that, I'll never get it done. :) So digi it is!
It was good to sit down and think about my word and where it is taking me and/or where I hope to be next year. I took the picture with my phone a couple of nights ago because I hadn't had a picture of me in my new glasses. I only wear them at night, but I think they are kind of fun.

Have you ever written yourself a letter to be opened in the future? If not, you might want to try it. It is kind of a fun thing to take on, and I'm sure it will be even more fun to read next year. :)
That is all I have for now, next up is Brighton.
