Drum Roll ...




Well, I guess ANYTHING is possible lol. Finally. After 2-1/2 years she's up. Books will wait until I go in January, but this counts. Excited and a little worried we'll get dinged by the historical review, but it is what it is at this point.

I have coaching this morning. I plan to talk about the baby shower -- get a pep talk so to speak. After coaching my DIL's mother is coming over to do a little shower prep. Not sure how this will go -- glad I'm getting some coaching to be in a more confident frame of mind. I'm not worried about her, I'm worried I'll be all wishy-washy. I need to show up as myself. 

I had a difficult conversation with my mother yesterday. It was a long time coming and while it needed to happen, I feel emotionally drained and not particularly happy. It's hard to interact with someone who is mentally ill and unwilling to get help. I'm considering coaching on this instead, but I wonder if that will leave me in a difficult mood for the shower prep.

The coaching is a little bit of a test too. Is this worth staying in the program? Do I get something from the coaching? Brooke's changed many things this year, I wonder who's doing individual coaching. I need someone to coach a little deeper than the basics (that I can do myself). The experienced coaches I've had have all left. 

Anyway ...

I switched the ribbon for the shower favors. Much better. Just did one -- I have 2 other colors of gingham arriving this week. Maybe I'll do a mix.




In the meantime, I have a nice long morning ahead. Peloton ride, journaling, reflecting. I need all of this today.

I hope this first week of 2024 is going well -- mine is a mixed bag, but probably all for the better good even though it doesn't feel particularly good in this moment. Later gators.
