Juggle upside down!

I just read the ebook Life Nomadic.  Let me just say, I was totally blown away.

I can’t believe all the things I’ve done this past new year. I’ve made new friends on twitter who have helped me out quite a bit (Thank you Andrew Rodgers, Shelli Langdale, and Ashley Ambirge!)

A new year is almost here (for me at least – it depends on the time zone).  There are lots of posts about inspiration and doing what you want and achieving your dreams.  I guess my post is a little bit like that, but it is more what I have realized over the past year. [...]
