The flower that continues to bloom: Called to Serve II

Called to Serve II

Daltonman has received a second mission call. The first one didn't work out, for various reasons. He enters the Provo, UT Missionary Training Center on March 5, and will serve in the California Carlsbad Spanish-speaking mission.

We're very excited for him and think this will be a great fit. Also, we can go pick him up in the spring of 2010 and then we can go to Sea World. Everyone wins!

What's the blog title about?

In 2010 I came across a series of vintage booklets entitled "Amy Vanderbilt Success Program for Women" (copyright 1965) at a thrift store. I didn't look inside any of them: the titles and cover art were funny enough that I had to have them. And it didn't hurt that I got four booklets for 25 cents. My favorite was "How to be a more interesting woman." Who could pass that up?

A few days later I started to look through the book for a laugh, and found myself almost immediately absorbed by the author's wisdom and wit. She made some good points . . . she made a lot of good points. This was something I could use, for who doesn't want to be more interesting? And here in my hands was a surprisingly progressive manual on how to do it.

So, in my newfound quest to be more interesting, I thought I'd use this forum to try things out and reflect on my efforts. In short, I hope to become the kind of person that continues to flower and grow.
