Day 9 Prompt – Party. What social gathering rocked your socks off in 2010? Describe the people, music, food, drink, clothes, shenanigans. (Prompt Author: Shauna Reid)
Definitely Blogher10, from the chance to see friends I love dearly, to the opportunity to speak on a photography panel, to the actual slammin’ parties. See my posts about it: Photography Panel, Blogher Memories Parts One, Two, Three, & Four. View the video below for scenes from the last night’s parties.
Day 10 Prompt – Wisdom Wisdom. What was the wisest decision you made this year, and how did it play out? (Prompt Author: Susannah Conway)
Clearing the brush and dismantling the cage.
Day 11 Prompt – 11 Things. What are 11 things your life doesn’t need in 2011? How will you go about eliminating them? How will getting rid of these 11 things change your life? (Prompt Author: Sam Davidson)
- Regret – this means making better choices, but also forgiving myself the bad ones.
- Disappointment
- Anger – I’m focusing on positives and my mantra is “relax, guy.”
- Fear – this sucker pairs up with #5 and stops me when I should be full steam ahead.
- Insecurity
- Apathy – the lazy douche in me causes bouts of numbers 6-8. I need a kick in the ass.
- Sloth
- Procrastination
- Anxiety – I’m not sure how to overcome this one, but it feeds #2, and I have to manage it.
- Impatience – okay, I’m honestly not sure I can conquer this one, so deeply embedded it is.
- Ungratefulness – for the chances I’m given for free every day just by being alive again when I open my eyes.
Reverb 10 is an annual event and online initiative to reflect on your year and manifest what’s next. Use the end of your year as an opportunity to reflect on what’s happened, and to send out reverberations for the year ahead.

In my mind, you are Superwoman, and I find it hard to imagine you dealing with ANY of those 11 ‘attributes’ you don’t need in 2011. In MY mind. I suppose the reality is that you are a normal, real woman like all other normal, real women – which on the whole, is not such a bad thing either. I love women. I think they’re great. But you … you’ve been special, and if you don’t mind, I think I’m going to go back to that whole “Superwoman” thing and just leave it there. It suits you better. In MY mind.

*wink* You’re sweet, Lou. But you know I’ve shown evidence of all of these things right here on this site!
But you go right ahead and pretend. I like being Superwoman somewhere in the world. xo

I finally got around to reading your post from the 8th and it is really beautiful. I am so glad that you and your family chose our ‘hood as a landing place. You have made it more interesting, Braden has made it more joyful, and John fills it with song. I don’t think we knew we were missing anything, but now I am not sure how we ever survived without you. XOXOX

KP – over and over again since we’ve come back home, we ask ourselves how we got so lucky to land right here and meet you guys. Love you dearly. Have to go blow my nose now. You made me cry! *smooch*

What would I do without fear and anxiety?! What would I worry about? Here I am worried. Worried about what I would worry about. Agh.
