I am so excited to find out that many of you are joining me choosing a word for the year. I have been keeping discipline in my mind as I make choices throughout the day and it really has been helpful.
I am also excited that many of you want to do the photography project as well! Please send me a link to your blogs or flickr accounts or wherever you are posting your photos so I can follow along.
Finally, if you are still reading... I GOT A COURT DATE!!! I have been assigned January 26th! If you wouldn't mind, please keep me and my little one in your thoughts and prayers! Thanks!

Just sent you an email. Hope we can touch base soon.
So happy for you!!! Fingers crossed for the 26th!
OMG where have I been?!? You and I are thinking the same things but I hadn't checking in here recently!!
I love the idea of one word - in fact my FB post a few days ago solicited that very thing from folks and I got some good ideas.
And I really love the photography project idea! Wonder if I can join 365 late?
COURT DATE?! YAY! Fingers crossed!!
Big congrats on your court date! I hope you only need one of them.
Ok, I take it back... 6 months from dossier completion to court date is NOT BAD AT ALL!
congrats!
