It Changes in a Heartbeat

I finished my post yesterday, laced up my shoes for my run and got a frantic call from the youngest - he'd forgotten paperwork for his big interview.  My morning of ME ended up getting postponed while I brought him the materials.  BTW - last interview I reminded him to bring things and I got my head snapped off.  Interesting fact we reviewed later ... parenting never stops!

All my "see the good, be the good" was out the window with my rush to get there and get home.  "Letting go of negative thoughts" -- not applicable either.  Oops.

Boy, I was in a crapped-up mood.  When I got home, before I could do MY care, I needed to dog-walk because of the heat.  I almost gave up on ME stuff, but I switched off the phone, did my affirmations, did my hard workout (7-6-5-4-3-2-1) and turned it around.  Whew.  It was afternoon by the time it was all finished, but I'm glad I pushed myself.

A little win, a little loss.  (BTW my youngest got the job - LAUNCH is happening!!!)

Today is the first small group phone call with PHB.  We meet the other 2 ladies in the group.  I'm curious about the dynamic of the group and the tone Holly will take compared to individual coaching.

I MIGHT box today.  Very, very last minute decision.  My ankle is feeling rough this morning after the run yesterday.  I'll see if it will work itself out, otherwise it's ARM day in the basement!

This week I'll get a post going of my latest goodies compliments of my favorite Instagram Influencers.

My reading has stalled a bit - about halfway through Gifts from the Sea - it's sweet and nice and feminine.  I think after reading so many self-help books, this one is too gentle - if that makes sense.  You read an entire chapter and by the end think - oh, that's a nice thought.  You aren't hit over the head with eye opening revelations.  Apparently, I like my self-help a little rougher LOL.

I have a nail appointment tomorrow.  IF my nails seem thin, I'll take a break.  If they are healthy, I'll give it another go.  No surprise I've become addicted.  My nails are so long right now and it's uncomfortable to type.

I need to go finish my PHB homework on meditation.  That went by the wayside yesterday after my "interruption."  It's a busy phone day today (call with Darcie, call with group and rescue phone calls).  I'm talked out already!!  Later gators.

P.S.  I listened to Glennon Doyle yesterday and she talked about when you walk into a room, instead of thinking "here I am" chose to think "there you are."  Be curious about people, ask questions and LISTEN.  It's a good way to feel comfortable in a room of people.  I remember this as I was typing about how much talking I'm doing today ... my goal is to add some LISTENING in as well!
