aussiewill's Life Goal List

It's official: We've reversed the downward spiral we've been in since ~ 2004 and now B. and I are riding an UPWARD SPIRAL. We both love this feeling! Keep it coming.

My Philosophy in Life

Note to Self: Having fun is smarter and more fulfilling than just about anything.

Time you enjoy wasting is not wasted. - Bertrand Russell

About Me

----

----

My name is Milli and I'm a work-at-home writer and writing coach.

I'm proud to say I'm now a grandma (6/19/08). My grandson Atreyu is SO cute even my husband (who does not find babies in the least interesting--and he's not Atreyu's grandfather) thinks he's adorable!

On New Year's Day 2009 I moved my writing goals to a separate SuperViva home ('writetime'):

I'm married.
