I wish someone would invent a time machine - not so much to travel through time but to produce more of it!!! But one thing I am going to try to do this year is to take time to smell the roses. I tend to always feel like I'm in a hurry!Diane Kellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06934612750269211608noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6028147191445531358.post-90524402219884429852011-12-30T17:40:42.800-06:002011-12-30T17:40:42.800-06:00Hi Kathy,

Which means I should sit down and write some instead of snacking on chocolate. ha!<br /><br />Here's wishing each of you a wonderful new year and great success with your writing!Karilyn Bentleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04359102189839118744noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6028147191445531358.post-84241951734036231192011-12-30T15:41:53.002-06:002011-12-30T15:41:53.002-06:00Oh, and I just saw Elizabeth Essex's post.
Y...Oh, and I just saw Elizabeth Essex's post. <br /><br />YES, Balance! I need that. <br /><br />Like Phyllis says, the board takes up a lot of energy and time. Then there's family and business and... whew!<br />But I'm going to aim for Elizabeth's illusive balance.<br /><br />I know it's out there. I'm whistling for it. <br /><br />So, here, here, raise your glasses. In addition to our sweet Kathy Ivan's wishes (and she really is one of the kindest people I know) May we all find balance this year.Kathleen Baldwinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09568097102600913219noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6028147191445531358.post-5351858173645024412011-12-30T15:34:40.332-06:002011-12-30T15:34:40.332-06:00I like your wishes, Kathy.

But I would expect nothing but generosity from our thoughtful Kathy Ivan!<br /><br />I'm going to add one more wish that really encompasses parts of your three wishes: BALANCE.<br /><br />This year I'm going to strive for better balance between the needs of my life as a person, mom, wife and friend, and my needs as a writer.<br /><br />So I'm looking to achieve balance, and hopefully this will make the deadlines and the hundreds of other commitments easier to manage.<br /><br />Wishing you all comfort and joy in 2012!Elizabeth Essexhttp://elizabethessex.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6028147191445531358.post-75631938070550842592011-12-30T11:46:36.615-06:002011-12-30T11:46:36.615-06:00I wanted to add another wish to all..Princesses an...I wanted to add another wish to all..Princesses and Visitors.<br /><br />I wish for all those who had success in your writing career to continue that success. <br /><br />For those who are not yet published, I wish the great success for getting published. <br /><br />For all - have a properous year....<br /><br />PhyllisPhyllishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02842013659811431774noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6028147191445531358.post-44384546425809986752011-12-30T11:29:11.121-06:002011-12-30T11:29:11.121-06:00Ah, Kathy, how sweet are your wishes for us.

I accept them and send right back out to all the Princesses.<br /><br />I have personal wishes for this next year. <br /><br />#1 - Improve my health by losing my excess weight.<br /><br />#2 Get back into submitting my work. Being on the Board of DARA for several years took up a good hunk of time and non writing efforts. So much so, that I did not submit my work to any contests, editors or agent for the past several years. So duh, how does one get published if one doesn't do anything about it?<br /><br />So those are my goals for 2012.<br /><br />PhyllisPhyllishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02842013659811431774noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6028147191445531358.post-68982199625166622862011-12-30T11:01:17.735-06:002011-12-30T11:01:17.735-06:00oh how fun - the 3 Hs - LOL.

So I'm not going down that path again!! <br /><br />I'll stick with wishing everyone a year filled with pleasant surprises - and a good job for my son!!chris kenistonnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6028147191445531358.post-86451012559647014572011-12-30T10:29:23.616-06:002011-12-30T10:29:23.616-06:00Here, here Kathy!
