Well ... this just isn't right!!! I'm so busy I don't have time to journal!!!
I'm home, sipping a glass of Pinot Grigio, waiting for my dinner to cook and thought I should pop in here and let you know I was alive. Seems I'm in a groove here ... with work being very busy which means I can't really afford to take the time I typically take to journal. It will slow down again ... but for now ... duty calls!!
And yet, still, I am grateful
1. that I am 52 years old and am pretty much okay with who I am and life ... while it is always changing it feels very good to be mostly comfortable with the person I am.
2. for driving home this afternoon IN A RAINBOW!!! No kidding!!! For quite a ways I appeared to be smack dab in the middle of a rainbow ... feeling lucky!!!
3. for the constant reminders I receive regarding just how blessed I am to have the relationship I do with my husband.
4. for a "boss" who is much more my colleague than a "boss" ... it fits me perfectly!!
5. for a job that is rarely "boring", keeps me on my toes, that I enjoy most of the time.
6. for Fall ... I love watching the leaves beginning to turn ... the animals stirring in preparation for winter, the starry skies at night, the nip in the air in the morning, and yet still warm temperatures during the day!!
I am starting to think I need to burn vacation time so I'll have time to put stuff on eBay, work on my book, make plans for building my business, do the things I really want to do!! LOL!!! Of course this is a busy time of year for us. The weekends are full of chainsaws, sawdust, and lifting rounds of wood onto the truck to haul to the woodshed. When I travel it always throws my schedule off too ... I am such a creature of habit.
All in all life is good. Maintenance is going well ... I am learning not to focus so much on "loss" and instead focus on living. Kindness continues ... as it should. Some days are more enjoyable than others ... and yet ... I am so very grateful for what I have. As I sit here, in my humble home, cooking a very simple meal, sipping my wine I see my dog lying at my feet ... know my husband is upstairs on his computer and somehow feel all is right with the world. There is much sadness, much trouble, much suffering in the world ... much I cannot control ... much I wish I had both for myself and to give to others. Yet ... for this moment ... all is well.
May you each continue to practice your own brand of kindness towards yourself, find peace where you can, joy where you can, and know that the troubles ... while they come and go ... need not define your life.
