My School and I is growing!

I've mentioned this year will be huge - what a start! With much going on in global news, new media, and more, it is difficult for a curious creature like myself to stay focused and move forward each day. However, it is exciting to see progress already being made on what myself and others feel will be a socially important business. The foundation for My School and I is building and our first website is due to go online any day. Social media and an online donations portal will also hit the ground running with great supporters. Special thanks to Mayor Corroon, the Jordan, Granite and SLC school districts, Joy Howes and the many others who have reviewed and provided their valuable input. For 2011, there will be some lofty goals on my part. Ideally, a shift in perspective will occour and individuals and families will stop trying to "Save our Schools" and instead start to realize the potential to make them grow and truly enable our youth. With this in mind, I will continue to...

We are here!

My mom informed me how awesome this date is! 1/1/11. Neat! What a great New Year's eve party I had-new friends and people, lots of laughing and some adorable pictures of my little one. We are off to a great start and I am so happy to start this year! My little brother, Isaac, said something that made me super happy, too. He thinks every day should be treated with as much excitement as the New Year. That is a great idea. I like Monday's and Friday's-all the in between and after, too. He is right. Happy New Year! Light, Love, Peace and Joy.

2011

While I don't know where 2011 will lead-it will take us out of 2010 and that makes me happy. It has been a tough year for me and others as well. This morning, I woke with an excited anxiety-I slept very little and think the pressures of evolving are making me antsy. On a personal level, I have a lot to be thankful for-I also have much to work on. Far from perfect, there are a few areas where a New Year's resolution won't be enough. I am going to need to dig in, find dicipline and push myself forward. Happy New Year's Eve to you all. Be safe, have fun and cheers to a wonderful New Year.

Happy Holidays all around!

What a great holiday season it was! This year, we saw the return of "hustling and bustling" for the season, but once Christmas Eve got here, almost everyone has reported an incredible holiday and a rekindling of some kind. Old traditions, family in from unexpected places and a genuine feeling of togetherness. As the new year approaches, excitement and anticipation for what's next is building. Many seeds have been planted and most are ready to work for the changes they'd like to see in their world. New areas of study and health are opening up and the sciences are parallelling other areas of research. The arts are seeing an infusion of spirit and industrious designs are creeping into fashion. On a personal level, 2011 is going to be a year of challenges and opportunity. The sustainable funding program that I have developed with help from a few kind volunteers has seen huge growth in it's PR audience, new partnerships are forming and we are moving ahead with a temp...
