My name is Marissa, and thank you for taking a ride on my first entry into the blogosphere. This blog is about me taking ownership of every area of my life, with power and freedom and joy, and sharing it with you and hopefully making a difference for you in the process.
Right now, the predominant area of my life that I'm dealing with powerfully (most of the time...) is Stage 3 Breast Cancer and my journey to health (which, incidentally, I'm winning!). However, this blog isn't called owning cancer, because there's so much more to me than that, and this is certainly not all I am owning (and pretty soon it will no longer be the controlling force in my day to day life).
I'm also owning being a mom and a wife, a homeowner, and the finances. Because I'm not working right now due to my illness, I'm also owning creating debt and pretty soon I'll be working to get out of it. I own being thrifty, crafting and DIY, organizing, and scheduling. I'm also a NYC high school English teacher, and I own that. I cook and garden and bake and organic, and I own that. I'm a New Yorker born and bred, and I'm Jewish (married to a non-Jew), and I own that. I think the title of my blog may be becoming clear...
I'm looking forward to this journey, and am hoping to get some posts up within the next week - I am super duper new to this, and I own that I have no clue what I am doing when it comes to what this blog is going to look like physically, although I do have a lot of ideas on the content. Bear with me as I learn how this whole shebang works.
Thanks for reading!
Marissa
