I just met 2 people who may be able to offer me ideas for growing infobility. One friend sat with me for 2 hours and designed a beautiful website with me. The only problem is we can't get it online so nobody will know it exists. My interest has been re-ignited so I will seek additonal paths to get this topic going again, someday I may even make it a non-profit. That's what I'll always want.

It's time to choose another path and see where that one will lead- growing infobility by disabling disability for the moment. I will create a class, or group, teaching people concrete ways to become more happy and that should make me more happy. I already met a professor of English who teaches the topic and published 16 of her own books. I will send her my pamphlet and manuscript after we discuss my "happiness project." It's all in the attitude and mine really needs and really will improve. Onward and upward in 2013!!

The autistic girl, with whom I do potholders, has finally begun to understand the process. She is now able to do the second part of the process instead of randomly say "over" and "under" while I weave the yarns through. I was very excited for her and made sure to let her know how happy I am with her. My constant reminders after each and every stitch payed off and now she can grab the yarns from underneath and pull them through. This is such a breakthrough and it goes to show that repetition and consistency does result in progress eventually.

I'm going to try yet another angle. I can earn $25 for signing up people to get Connect America Alert Button. I wrote a note and sent flyers to local senior centers. One asked me to speak about it and so I will offer this to other groups as well. In conjunction to the product I will share my pamphlet called "Tenacity of Hope" which deals with managing independently at home. The two products are on the same issue- empowerment. At least I can make an effort to make this work.
