june dreams: my birthday month

bonnard among the peonies chez moi

it's that time of the month - assessment and setting of dreams/goals.
june is a mixture of physical, creative, spiritual, and relationship aspirations. in addition, i turn 37 on the 30th. love birthdays. as 2010 unfolds, i'm definitely feeling a shift take place. what that is is to be determined. searching for clarity seems to make it even more elusive. time will tell. in the interim, i'm doing my best to savor tranquility (and many lessons) along the way.

Ok, you've inspired me to finally try setting some monthly goals. Would love to know where you keep yours and how often you look at them to keep you on track during the month?

A memoir, mini or otherwise, sounds fantastic. As a single woman attempting to enter the entrepreneur lifestyle (while striving for tranquility) I would love to hear more about your journey. I've listened to past podcasts where you've talked about this but I'm always keen to hear more! Love your writing style too so it would be a treat :)
