I've come to feel this is an indulgence of ego I can no longer perpetrate. I don't have the ambition of a "Julie" to meet "Julia Child". Regardless, Julia Child wasn't impressed. So what if she got a movie out of it. If I thought that anything I did would gain me an audience with Meryl Streep I'd do it, but really, that seems a little off the table.
I might write something, someday. But for now, I'll go back to my chosen profession of mismanaging my kids, enjoying my second chance at romance and cultivating the many friendships I have which keep me going and feeling alive.
Who knows, maybe someday I'll actually acquire some expertise in something which would merit comment, but I imagine we'll all be dead by then.
Thanks for listening, encouraging and joining me in this adventure.
Projects upcoming include:
Succulent Garden
Quilting
Wait, what am I doing? LIsting the things I hope to accomplish? Just what I need, other eyes to wonder whether I'll actually get to them or not.
Adios amigos.
So, I just discovered your blog and enjoyed it thoroughly. You have such a gift of writing about things that touch us at our core. You DEFINITELY should develop this gift.
