A is for Alpha

Here we go!  I have been anticipating this day for the last two weeks.  When I learned about the A-to-Z challenge I thought "what a perfect way to draw a line in the sand" and declare "this is the beginning of a new day." A is for alpha - the first letter of the Greek alphabet - synonymous with "beginning."

One thing I have learned along the way is that life is seasonal and I sense a new season on the horizon.  I have been a stay-at-home mom for the last twenty years and even though we still have two children at home (13 and 15), I am looking for a new beginning.  Recently, I finished a master's degree in Library and Information Science with the intention of working in information management for a business/corporation or possibly working in an academic library.  I am hopeful that something will materialize soon!

While I do not have a theme for this blog, my purpose for beginning this blog is to see what emerges by the end of the month - I expect this blog to be a little of this and a little of that and will reflect my varied interests (thus the title).  I am new to blogging so I hope to learn a lot along the way and with this challenge hope to make some new friends.
