Youngest came over last night to print his resume (he has 2 prospects brewing - fingers crossed). He used my computer (logged me out of this account for some reason) and ate the food I made for today.
Giving tree -- it's a given when you're a mama or a woman. It was good to see him back to his positive self and moving forward though -- that was worth my chicken for today.
I'll take a page from that attitude and focus on some positive.
Coaching call was a lot of talk about how the universe gives you lots of practice to work on your
Solution is to plug along and take the lessons.
I'm fighting the urge to hibernate because life (and people) are on my last nerve. It's a perception, not a reality, so I'm moving forward. Adding fun, doing things, smiling, focusing on positives.
Tonight my neighbor and I are heading to an outdoor wellness fair in the Farmers Market town. I fought the urge to cancel because it's HOT and she cancels on me regularly -- didn't care if I did it back at her. But I'm not. And I will have fun (while sweating my ass off).
We're going to a Releash rescue party at the lake this Saturday. Also thought about canceling. I don't feel like being social, kids are moving -- perfect excuse. But I didn't. And I will have fun. We are going to the Farmers Market ahead of the lake because we can and we should and we can do more than one thing a day. I also made it easy for me and ordered a sub party tray -- no cooking, no prep, just a store pick-up.
I invited old neighbors (friends) over for dinner and it looked like the dates weren't going to coordinate which would push the dinner a month away. I knew there was a solution, but I almost didn't suggest it. I did. A Thursday night. None of us have traditional jobs (or any job - hah) so weekdays are fine (I don't think they know hubby's situation totally). Easy drinks and something on the grill. I need to get back to socializing.
Unity service is a maybe for Sunday. We committed to help the kids move all day. Once we figure out a time I'll see if I can do both.
A fall goodie came yesterday. Cents of Style had a 40% off sale and this sweater looked nice. I purged so many old, old sweaters before we moved. You don't get to wear sweaters often in GA so I had lots to say goodbye to -- button downs are a good fit for the south. On and off with no problem -- almost like a jacket. It's a pale pink.
I didn't get up a 5 o'clock this morning -- slept until 7. Youngest was over and I got to bed a little later than I planned. Since I'm going out tonight, I decided to go back to sleep. Next week I'm back to the early wakeup (probably this weekend too).
TREAT today is getting out tonight. Doing something. Smiling. Having fun. Losing my shitty attitude.
TOOL is remembering to look for the HAPPY. I'm noticing the crap in neon lights and closing my eyes to all the good stuff. Why?? Good lord, I have no idea.
HAPPY Thursday (!!) Later gators.
