Success in Many Colors
Insomnia rages tonight. Can't sleep so I think I'll write. So much is buzzing in my mind.

Been so busy that I never mentioned I finished my coloring book! I made the deadline I had set, even despite the flu. It took help from my family and my friends Joe & Heather, but I pulled it off with minutes to spare. Counting by Critters is now available as a free download. What a relief to have that project finally finished.

On December 13th, The Splintered Mind became a busy hive. My funny little blog on overcoming neurological disabilities with humor and attitude became selected as a Blog of Note over at blogger.com. I had 3490 unique visitors on the first day. Once I rolled down the Blogs of Note list my daily visitors dropped to 700-800. Of course, those are just numbers and don't mean anything. What meant a lot to me was the large amount of people who stayed to leave comments. Such insightful and thought provoking comments! I've been in heaven for two weeks.

I've ended the year in a splash of color. I'm upbeat for a change and glad that I persevered and finished the goals I had set out for myself to accomplish. Now my slate is clean and I can do anything I want. I'm almost paralyzed by the vast amount of choices I have, but I can only focus on one or two of them. I need to make sure that the first steps I take in 2006 don't send me off in the wrong direction. A lot must happen this upcoming year. I need to be focused and driven to achieve what I want to achieve before I turn 40. Wish me luck.
