LUCY Conference Day

Almost everyone is talking about new beginnings right now. I guess January does that to us, along with spring time! January is a very motivating month for me. Once I get the house back together I feel such a sense of accomplishment which just rolls over to the rest of my life (note two posts very close together!). In January the entire year is out in front of you just for taking! I see some interesting things on the horizon and thought you might like to hear about them. This month is chock full of short trips. My husband, an avid UVA sports fan, and I met some friends for dinner and a game in Charlottesville last weekend. She and I will be taking an artisan bread making class later this month! Now that really is something to look forward to. Also this month I have TWO overnight trips to Williamsburg. One with friends and one for my 33rd wedding anniversary! Feb. is a little sparse, but in March I will be presenting at VSRA with a dear friend. The big deal for me this year is in August when LUCY is having a one day multicultural conference and as grant manager, I will be putting it together with our team. The author of Red Umbrella will be one of speakers. Christina Gonzalez's first novel is getting a lot of press and has shown up on numerous Top 10 lists! I am very excited. Tomorrow I will share some of the other authors who will be with us.
Take a minute and look at 2011 and all the blessings that are on your horizon!
