Changes in Expectations, part 1

I am stunned it has been over a year since my last post. Yes, I have been busy, and yes, I am still adjusting to a schedule change... then summer break, then schedule change again.

Yet what I always notice is Expectations and Priorities. When something is important, you make it happen. That is the biggest reason most people (some women in particular, that I know, anyway) make themselves have fun "last." Everything and everyone and every other responsibility comes first.

I admit -I have not made it a priority for me to 'blog' because I don't expect anyone to read what I have to say and I don't expect to change anyone's views or opinions. I just live, day to day, adjusting and coping with changes in my own life.

A few years ago, I established this blog because I had a friend who suggested that I have opinions that others might be interested in reading. I believed her, and I went out on a cyber-limb. I think I misjudged my expectations. I didn't expect to change anyone, but I did want to change myself. I'm not sure if I have had much impact, specifically to myself.

I'm not sure at all of what it was that I expected... maybe that is not even the point. But I do want to make it a priority again. And I admit, I do it without the same expectations... but please Comment, if you will. Share/let me know any of your expectations.
