Tonight is the end of NaBloPoMo 2011. It will be nice to blog at a more leisurely pace again, but I will miss some blog friends who post at a really leisurely pace for 11 months out of the year... (Anna, you know who I'm talking about.)
One of the fun things about committing to post every day for a month is discovering the topics for posts as you go along. Mark and I were chatting about this the other day, and I told him it was a good reminder to me to trust in stories. The stories are all around us. Why do people like to read blogs? Because we like stories. Commitments like NaBloPoMo force me to pay more attention to the everyday stories that happen every day, to be a closer observer of life.
Also, tomorrow night will be THE END of my PSU classes! It's the last class of the last class!
I will still have to finish my thesis (maybe by June???) for the MFA in Writing, but no more weekly drives into Portland for 4-hour classes. I've been taking the night classes almost every term for six years, so I'm feeling rather jolly about this milestone.
I'm trying to think of something else to write in this post, but I'm distracted by 1) the term paper I need to finish before tomorrow night's class and 2) my eyelids that keep heading south.
So goodnight, dear blog friends.
The End.

Kathy, thanks for posting everyday. I enjoyed reading your postings.
BTW - I could picture you at the reading, wearing your Sunday Church garb and feeling a bit out of place. It's OK. Its a good thing to put yourself outside of a comfort zone once in a while. It's how we grow.
