Fall 2010 has gone fairly well, my job has been to part time most days but I pick up full time hours on some days. I keep myself busy on those quieter days going though clutter that has accumulated over years, from all five of us living here and as a result of a home daycare I ran for 10 years. It feels great to do this but there is still a lot to be done. Halloween was a lot of fun especially doing activities with the childcare children and carving jack 0 lanterns with my own children.
We have done well controlling our spending and do not get anymore notices about late bills etc.... This has added more peace to my life.
In other news my sons are all well, two are now teenagers which can be a challenge sometimes but things are going pretty well with them.
My most difficult challenge is my social phobia which has gotten worse again
it is a constant difficult struggle which I hope to face again soon,
peace and love, Ida

Hi Ida, Sounds like you have things moving right a long... declutter and all. I was not all that aware of social phobia that you experience. Some how I missed that but apparently you do will with children so that must mean you do well with parents more rather than less. I wish you all the best in addressing/overcoming social phobia. Peace to you :o)

It\'s so nice, hearing that you and your family, and friends enjoyed a nice halloween, and are enjoying doing some cleaning, and organizing for the upcoming winter months. :) It\'s truly amazing how we are just 6 weeks away from winter. wow! the year is really flying by. i too, have been doing some cleaning, and organizing here in my computer room. :) i have my thanksgiving/fall harvest writing area set up. :) i love to write. :) i smiled when i read that you all enjoyed carving pumpkins. :) that\'s a sweet tradition, the halloween season was so much fun. :) we all have lots of nice things to look forward too. :) soon, christmas time, putting up the christmas tree, gathering with family and friends, the warmth of the home, the sweet spirit of the season warming our hearts, like how a cup of hot chocolate can warm us up on a cold winter day. :) We cherish, and treasure your wonderful friendships. :) keep strong, and keep us updated on how things are going. :) We love you all bunches and bunches, our sweet dear wonderful guardian angel friends. :) We send our love, warm friendship wishes, caring thoughts, many sunny November blessings, and happy friendship hugs, from CT. :) Take care, enjoy a wonderful day. :)
Keep trying to overcome the social phobia. I fight it all the time. One minute I am outgoing and the next minute I shy away from others. I know I have made some progress but still find it hard dealing with others. Keep on trying Ida-I know you can do it! God bless!:0)
