Welcome!

Welcome to my new subscribers and apologies for letting you sit out there in the ether for so long. I’m the first to admit I’m pushing my limits with technology doing this blog and so when they changed the way you’re notified about new subscribers, well, I dropped the ball. Nevertheless, I’m thrilled to have you here. It’s been two years since I started my blog. Here’s what you missed:

The feedback from “Weighty Lies“ tells me it was my most humorous post.

Although one of the shortest, this Christmas post may be my Most Sentimental.

Biggest Flop ~ Let’s just say it’s a good thing I have no aspiration to be a mystery writer.

Metrics were actually used to declare this my Most Popular, but as I said in my one year anniversary post, it may be because of the very “googled” title. It will always be one of my favorites.

As always, thanks for the support and thanks to all for going along with me on this ride.

 

Jump Around!

I’ve always been a big fan of the “jump around.” It’s even one of my favorite dance moves. (At a wedding a few years ago a girlfriend was watching me on the dance floor and said, “You can tell Susan has never had kids.”)

Seeing any group of grown ups jumping around together is just pure joy, which is why Hubby called me in the other day to see how the Red Sox outfielders celebrate a win.

For my 60th birthday celebration I was out there with all the kids dancing to the sounds of NYOC (miss hearing you guys play, by the way), and apparently, I hadn’t really given enough thought to the bouncy dress I had on until a girlfriend called me over and said, “You’re flashing us, Susan. Please stop.”

So, as I log another trip around the sun, my advice is to jump around for as long as you can. Just take note of what you’re wearing first.

Apparently, I’ve been jumping around since at least 1996!
