Jul. 28, 2008 - BFS and my thoughts on it~

I've gotten so many emails about everyone wanting to participate and that's GREAT!!!  I'm so excited and doing my best to get things up and running.  I've been working all summer to come up with assignment ideas and things to keep us all interested.  There is one thing I've noticed though...quite a few emails have said something about "not being able to do all the assignments"  and that's fine...we all have things come up and we get distracted from life in general.  I understand, however, I do want to reflect and share some of my personal feelings with you in hopes that you will be encouraged.  Understand that there is a certain satisfaction in doing these assignments that will be very beneficial to you and your families.

I have learned from past experience that doing these assignments helps to keep me on track with so many other things going on in my life.  I really enjoy them and it gives me a nice little break from reality...which we all could use at one time or another.  These assignments also create memories for me to have later on in life for my daughters and my grandchildren.  Some of things I've done online I wouldn't think about doing in everyday life.

I'm just wondering, how many of you feel the same way or what your feelings are about the assignments are that you've done?
