I will make every attempt to avoid discussing this disgustingly poor performing body, I promise.
It dawned on me this morning why I am wanting to back off from all my positions of leadership and quit being responsible for so much. It's one of those transition times again in my life. You know that feeling that someone is trying to get your attention but you keep on plodding along? Just recently I have been getting the message that I am at a point where I've done my civic duty and it is time to move on. It's easy to just say that I'm getting older or I have Parkinson's but the reality is much more than that.
And of course the scary part about transitions is that time spent in the middle when the old is cut away but the new has not taken shape yet. I don't know what my "reason to be" will be in this next stage, but I am definitely getting ready for something new. And it won't involve sitting on a governing board!
I am so cranked up for this trip to Hartford/Albany; I'm getting hints that tell me I may find my new course at the General Synod. I hope I can stay open to any and all hints.

could be that it's time to just be Nanna, that's it. It's not been easy for me, taken two years to get used to the idea of not working, and having a purpose. Now, I can come and go as I please, no responsibilities, just being Nanna! It working for me!
