Published!

About ten years ago, I wrote a list of 100 things I want to do before I die.  It contained a whole gambit of things from "Swimming the English Channel" (never going to happen), to own a house, to read all of Dicken's works (I'm close).  

Another thing was to get something I wrote published.  It was a simple goal.  I would have been happy with a letter to the editor of my local newspaper.  Well, today, that dream has been reached.  I just found out that an article I submitted to the New Era will be published in the May 2009 issue.  Wahoo!  I'm thrilled.

    okay, I feel somewhat responsible for that article:)

    By the way, have you been watching the pbs series from Dicken's "Little Dorrit"? I believe you can watch it online until May 3rd.

    congratulations! i will try to look for that, if i can find somebody with a new era.

    the most dickens i have read is, 'it was the best of times, it was the worst of times,' lol never got past page one, i was intimidated by the small print and lack of pictures.

    Congratulations! How did you find the time to write anything "of good report or praise-worthy" with a house full of little kids?
