commingle
On a snowy February afternoon, I stared out the window, bored, tired and needing a change. So I gave myself a serious challenge. 365 days of something new. That's right-I challenged myself to try something new EVERYDAY for 365 DAYS! It seemed like a good idea on a cold winter day, but as it turns out, it was the hardest thing I have ever done. I love the way it challenged me to stretched my limits and looked at each day in a new way as a new opportunity. Alas, life caught up with me and I had to let the blog go for a while...I'll be back...someday!
So check it out- www.wordpress.commingle.com. How'd the name commingle come about, you ask?
I first discovered the word commingle when I was twelve and have been obsessed with it since. During the summer, my mom would give me a new word each day. I had to look the word up in a dictionary, write the definition on an index card and use the word in a sentence. In return, I received snack money for the pool. On Friday, mom would give me a test on the words of the week and if I had a perfects score, I would get money for a movie and pizza with my friends! Pretty good deal…wish it was that easy today.
Commingle is one of those "summer enrichment" words that just stuck with me. Don’t know why…but this word resonated with me. I even won an art competition with a collage titled “Commingle”.
Life is a mix…how boring would it be if every day were the same or if all people were identical. What a perfect word to describe my blog- a mixture of new activities everyday. Commingle. Just say it. It’s fun.
