I know it is still two weeks away, but my Valentine's gift from Ron (that he ordered a couple of weeks ago) arrived today and he decided to give it to me early. And, as we speak, or type as the case may be, I am using it!!!! Ron gave me my very own Dell Inspiron 6000 laptop.....my first ever laptop that belongs only to me!!!
Actually, Ron's so supportive of everything that I do and he decided that this would be a necessary tool to help me in my endeavour to write. Write? I guess you are wondering what that is all about. Since I was a little girl, I have wanted to be a writer. But, I've always been too scared, worried I'm not talented enough, fearful of failure, etc. to actually give it a try. Over Christmas break I decided to take a chance and I took a writing aptitude test through the Institute of Children's Literature. Well, I passed and evidently they think I have some writing ability and accepted me into their "Writing for Children and Teens" home study class. I received my first assignment from my instructor this past weekend and I'm looking for my official coursework package to arrive this week. So, will this turn into a new career? I sure hope so! But, we'll see where God takes it. I would love nothing more than to turn my hobby into a paycheck, but if not, at least I'm giving it a try!
In the meantime, I'm going to have fun writing and blogging on my new toy!
