Do It Myself Blog – Glenda Watson Hyatt

Thanks for stopping by the Readers’ Café – the place to gather and to share. However, I’m not currently here. I am on my way to the 2008 “Misbehaving Woman of the Year” Recogntion Event, Fundraiser and Clothing Swap – a fundraiser for the Avalon Women’s Centers.

I am being honoured with one of the “Misbehaving Women” Awards, which are based on the Laurel Thatcher Ulrich quote “well behaved women seldom make history” and honours women who have refused to be pulled into the cultural drift of complacency, who have dared to make a difference, taken a risk and enhanced the lives of women in her community. Where is the fun in being well behaved?! Details and, hopefully, photos from the event will be forthcoming.

Readers’ Cafe will open again in two weeks on Wednesday, March 19th, at 4pm pacific. Stephen Hopson from Adversity University will be our featured guest. Hope you can join us then.

For now, I’ll leave you with this qoute that I love and perhaps embodies Misbehaving Women:

Life shouldn’t be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, martini in the other, totally worn out and screaming, “Woohoo, what a ride!”
