My Introduction
Since we’re already into the first week of classes I feel like I have lots to say about other stuff but I thought it’d also be good to go back to the beginning and blog an introduction with the two things Ellen and Nanette asked for…
I see my husband, Steven, each day and I truly value him. Meeting him was part of a big personal revolution in my life and I’m grateful for the uprising! I’ve claimed a lot for myself in the last 7 years and Simmons is a final cornerstone in what I hope will finally make a rock-solid personal foundation.
I’ve been thinking a lot about the second thing - what someone said that changed me in some way. There are many things and not all of them have been good! And I’ve been nervous about blogging because it’s so “you just put it out there” that I think I’m going to err on the fluff side of truthful!
I read an Eleanor Roosevelt quote in a magazing in a store some time back and it summed up a lot of what I’d realized (and learnt) about life: No one can make you feel inferior without your consent.
What a good way to end my first blog!?!

Nanette- I think it is so awesome that you are in our class. It's sooo awesome to have you learning beside me (literally and figuratively!!). You bring such a great perspective to our class, one of someone with a little more life experience. Thanks so much!! I am really excited about hearing more about your life and your thoughts and feelings.
