Seems like I've been neglecting my blog and blogging friends lately.
And it hasn't been because I want to.
Life has been one turn after the other lately...
I feel almost dizzy.
You know when you hit those points in your life where decisions have to be made? The Big ones?
Choices lay before you...pros and cons listed...and when it's finally all decided....you hold your breath and take one giant step.....
....to cross that next bridge in life.
All the while- hoping that once you cross- you don't even want to look back.
Or have any regrets.
Since writing here last, I've started a college course which may lead me into something I love doing as a job (for when the kiddos up and leave me;)
And upon hearing I was taking the said course....a manager (of my favorite of all stores)....offered me a job today.
Kids have been moving ahead with things and don't need me quite as much...and they all are living through changes of their own.
And there are other things in Life which seem to be moving and changing quickly all of a sudden.

Bridges in life can be breath~taking.
Sometimes you aren't quite sure if you should, or even can cross.
And then once you start to cross, you feel the need to continue, even just to see what it is that lies on the other side.
With heart pounding....steps are taken to walk - sometimes run- to the other side.
{"...Bridge the gap which exists between where you are now and the goal you intend to reach."}
~Earl Nightingale
I would rather say I crossed each bridge I came to in life...rather than hanging out on the other side wondering what lies just beyond.
So I think I'm going to.
As breath~taking as it may be.
~Live life with no regrets~

{Missing you all and will be by to catch up soon.
My last class for this part of the course ends tomorrow night:)}

Love and Light
Good luck! Sounds like good timing.
Awesome pics you keep up the good work on doing the things you need to do. I am not going anywhere. I am so happy you are crossing those beautiful bridges Dawn. Take care my friend. B
I'm happy for you Dawn. I know you will be successful at whatever you try! :)
Take that step, you are already there !
Have fun. We'll see you less but then, life definitely isn't all about us now is it? Live life large. Have fun.
Good on you! Now if only there was a bridge from Canada to Europe, you wouldn't have to get on a nasty plane to realise all those other dreams of yours:-)
Excellent hearing from you here Dawn, great post and you go girl... what is meant to be will be! No regrets, never any regrets of the "what if's", cross that bridge and go for it is what my opinion is. If I didn't go back to school 4 1/2 years ago, I wouldn't be sitting in a student apartment in Australia, no regrets whatsoever! Cheers.
Well that sounds exciting! Congratulations :-)
You go for it....I am proud of you.
hoping it leads you where your heart wants to go. sounds like its time for a leap of faith. :)
you miss 100% of the chances you never take!!
i always wonder what your struggling with??
gorgeous pictures, really gorgeous!!
I was thinking about you Dawn....my little britches loves the photo you sent me of the barn and sunflowers...we look at it everyday....can't wait to hear all about your new adventure...
Wishing you the very very best Dawn.
I hope everything works out well for you.

Awesome pics & I love the color of that 1st one...
I hope you find what you want & need on the other side & here's to taking chances!!! =)
You inspire me to get in better physical shape... I should walk that bridge!!! =)
I'm excited for you!
Go girl!
Well it is nice to know what you have been doing. I wondered.
I know you will be blessed in what ever you do.
Good luck with the college course Dawn! I am sure everything will turn out fine:)

That's amazing that you decided to take a course and congratulations on the job offer! I'm sure you'll make the right decision. And if you go ahead and take the job, I know you'll do great at it!!! :)
This is quite a post, Dawn. Your photos are really good, and the bridge-crossing image seems to fit the stages you are living through. Whatever you choose, I wish you the best.
CONGRATS on crossing those bridges even if uncertain. So many decisions we make intuitively put us on a path that will cause changes we won't appreciate until we look back and say, "Oh that's why."
Good for you for grinding it out on a treadmill when the snow is deep and slick. Both literally and metaphorically.
Best of luck with your endeavors!
Wishing you all the best with your courses. I started my class two weeks in fact I should be doing homework right now but I had to stop by a few blogs first. No worries we will be here when you return. Congratulations on the job offer too.! Great post by the way.
Neat bridge shots. Cong. on the job offer and on going back to school!
I don't know how you find time to post at all and to be so creative but life has a way of interrupting us all.
I love blogging, but it does take a lot of time, and it can be hard to find balance. Best wishes in your new adventures. And, congratulations :)
Nice to hear from you.I enjoyed your shots and it sounds like you are improving your job outlook.For some reason i thought you were in nursing.
CROSSING Bridges is Life itself!
Burning Bridges is a tragedy!
I have a feeling you will successfully CROSS them all!

Dawn: One word (no not "plastics")..
......ENJOY! ;D)!!!
All the photos are beautiful, but the first one is my favorite! Very nice!
Congrats on your college course and job offer! I hope things settle down a bit for you.
In many ways, you could be describing my own life right now. Significant decisions to make and not sure which way to go.
Great photos to illustrate your post.
You'll do great no matter which bridge you choose to cross. With your drive and determination, anything is possible.
i don't see you as someone who makes bad discussions. your heart is always in the right place and will guide you through this one as well. :o)
the best to you always Dawn! love the photo's!
Oh darlin', congratulation and soar across those life bridges sweetie.
I'm so happy for you.
God bless and have a fantabulous weekend sweet friend!!!
Good luck with your bridge crossings, Dawn. Sounds like exciting changes are along your path.
Hope you had a beautiful Valentine's Day sweetie!
Just stopping back. Hope all is well. :)
Life is full of challenges and changes, for sure. Congrats on going to school and finding a new job! I'm sure lots of new opportunities will come your way!
