1st attempt - Thing 1

Okay so I am blogging for the first time in my life and I do not know if this is even working. It is for a class I am taking but I also think it will be beneficial to learn. I am also doing this while I am on vacation! Today we were at the south rim of the Grand Canyon. What spectacular views we saw! When I learn how to add pictures maybe I can share them. We had a great time but a very long day so I am signing off for the day.
So, now I am editing because I have figured out I was not totally correct in completing my assignments.  After reading 71/2 habits , which I totally believe, I think the most challenging  for me will be to stay up with the required assignments (habit 6) as they progress to more difficult levels.  The easiest  ( ha) will be the play (habit 71/2)....after all it is summer.  And the most important is accepting responsibility (habit 2) for my learning  and teaching others(habit 7).  After all, that is my chosen profession.  I can relate to the tenets of the 71/2 practices because when I was about to turn 50 I felt that I needed to learn something new. I made a list of 50 things I could learn or do that I had  never tried before.  I gave myself permission to "try" it and if it was not what I expected I moved on to the next item.  But I had at least tried it.  It was actually a lot of fun to try the different things and I did learn some new things along the way.
