New Year...New Focus...Mighty, Geeky, Nerdy

I had a great year of homemaking didn't get half the things I wanted to done...but that is totally okay and I am totally okay with it.  Especially since the new fun is beginning....2016

We will be MIGHTY.  

The plan is to read as many books about empowering girls and women.  I am following A Mighty Girl 's Facebook and Blog site.  I am aware that this is almost a total 180 from last year because this site has a some what feminist agenda, but I am also aware that girls can and should have career options.  It is not a matter of life or death to me if that career happens to be more feminine or if it happens to be homemaking.  I think it will be fun to learn about all the women who had to step out of the norm to progress our world whether it be through inventions, scientific discoveries, political action, or conservation.

We will be GEEKY.

We might have already been this to a degree.  We love super heroes, Star Wars, Harry Potter, and my husband loves comic books.  I would like to share the interest.  I am more of a literature nerd than a geek but I would really like to take a peek into that world and actually read a comic book and some sci-fi and see what happens.  Plus I have NEVER seen an episode of Star Trek and barely sat through the Doctor Who episodes I had access to at one point.  We will see what I learn...and from some of the experience I have had with the geeky is...find new things to complain about.  I have to say that is the one thing I am NOT looking forward to in this experiment.

We will be NERDY.  

I associate nerdy with a more specific knowledge especially when it comes to literature, computers, math, science, and technology.  I don't have an exact plan for this...I thought I might find some free classes or put together a Church History Curriculum (not exactly the most nerdy thing, but I guess I am running out of ideas)....  Any way, I love learning and it might be fun to refresh my math knowledge.

See you next time with a few ideas for a daily entry, but until then...live long and prosper...right?

End the Chapter

  Dear Reader, I don't think I have ever been more angry, embarrassed, disappointed, and ashamed.  We are at the end of the chapter.  We...
