New Year, New Blog! Or Committment to writing one!

Last year I started this blog. I didn't really tell anyone about it (just my mom) and I only had two posts! I thought, "what do I have to write about that anyone else would care to read." Whilel, that may still be the case, I do have quite a bit going on in my life that someone out there may find interesting or entertaining or boring!

So, I'm adding to my list of 14 goals for 2010.

#15 - Writing this blog (if even only once a week).

Now the real question is - do I tell anyone about it?!

I turned 3-0 last year and I remember having a list of things I wanted to do before I turned 30. I don't know what ever happened to that list, but I do know I was able to accomplish a few of them. One thing that I've wanted to do practically my whole life is to go to the Kentucky Derby! Being the southern-raised girl I am - what can be better dressing up, wearing a big hat (that I'll never wear again) and drinking "yummy" mint juleps?! It appears this year may be the year to cross it off my list. I've already got my plane ticket; now buying a ticket to Churchill Downs is another thing.

I've also committed to doing another marathon which I swore I'd never do. It's going to be truly a destination marathon and one I couldn't pass up. I'm running the Napa Valley Marathon in March with a few of my very best friends! My mama, sister and runner in crime - Kimberly! It's Kimberly's first marathon and she was a little bummed to find out there will be no spectators on the course.

Last and most importantly, I'm starting a new company. As I was reading through pages and pages of research and resources today I realized I may have found something that I always wanted to do, but didn't know it. I am starting a technology licensing agency - licensing IP in the bioscience industry. This came about sine I've been working for three years now for a health, science and technology brand consultanc and the challenges we've seen with clients and marketing/licensing their IP. I am very excited about this new venture and will probably have a few things to say about it this year.

Stay tuned!
