Hello and hello!

September is a good time of year to learn new things, don't you think? Maybe it's all those years of back to school that make it exciting, change is in the air.

I've been working on my Dreamweaver website design skills, which are woefully basic at best. My goal is to be able to send out newsletters that are easy to read on phones and tablets, not just computer screens. Hopefully in the next month or two I'll crack that nut. It's a work in progress so if this newsletter is wonky on your screen, I apologize in advance.

It's fun and a little dangerous to learn something new. Learning a new skill like playing an instrument, drawing or a language takes time and a willingness to make mistakes. But even something simple like trying a new recipe can be very rewarding. We have a neighborhood yoga and potluck that meets once a week. I have all the flexiblility and grace of a sea manatee but it's getting easier, plus it helps to be rewarded afterwards with a good meal with friends and interesting conversation.

What new things are you working on this month?

Best thoughts,
