Well I see that early in the year I vowed to be more consistent in 2013 than I was in 2012…. so yay me for being so consistent! I was consistent, I was consistent, I was consistent (in the spirit of today’s politicians I am trying the “if you repeat it often enough it is true” method)….

OK, so I wasn’t consistent! But the year isn’t over yet! So here I am again… back for another shot at things! In the interim, I have launched a new free-lance writing business (Beth Hartley Writes, Inc) – no website yet, but there is a domain and email (beth@bethhartleywrites.com) – brochures, rewrites, proofreading, marketing materials, newsletters, ghost writing, web content… hopefull with God’s Grace (and some hard work on my part) I can move toward working the creative side of my brain on a more consistent basis (there’s that word again).

In the meantime, to get back in the swing, gratitude often comes up in November so let’s try to get grateful together – one (blog) per day starting on November 1st – each with a letter of the alphabet – so November 1 will be “A”, November 2 will be “B”, etc – after we get to the 26th, we can either make up four more letters, or wing it for the rest of the month!

Tomorrow, as a pre-exercise, I will take a look at the effect of gratitude on my life…

Everybody ready? Think Olivia Newton-John (you have to be old enough to remember the 80’s)…. let’s get consistent! Consistent! I wanna get consistent! Let me see my blog talk… my blog talk….

Now, where did I put my leg warmers???
