Okay, so I started this blog in hopes of bringing joy and inspiration to the world, and life goes to hell!!!!! Can't keep me down though. As I said, if I could write a newspaper column, it would continue to focus on the positive aspects of life, so... my financial difficulties are teaching budgeting, patience, and appreciation for what I do have AND my too-busy schedule is teaching organization skills, time management, and delegation. There we go - back on track!
I know life cannot always be easy so we have to learn from the challenges and enjoy the rest. One day in October I ran a school PTO function in the morning, went to work for 3 hours, took my daughter to a doctor appt for test results (she's fine), and finished the day with an awards ceremony for the other daughter! Funny thing is, a day filled with so much is NOT out of the ordinary! What is uncommon though is a day where I do not leave the house, in fact it would be great if I could not leave my pj's, and spend the whole day being lazy!!! Oh to dream!!!
I have pledged to LIVE, LOVE, LAUGH, LEARN, EXPERIENCE, ENJOY, and HELP, and you can't do that by staying in pj's everyday! Why not? There has to be a way!!! :)
Though I feel the weight of the world on my shoulders right now, it expands my horizons and helps me realize that there are other people out there who need more than I do and I can accept my own situation a bit easier. I am blessed with so much - especially the wonderful family I was able to visit with this past weekend. Thanks Dad, Max, Laurie & Dennis for everything!
If you like books, check out the website Good Reads if you get a chance. www.goodreads.com I have just finished reading The City of Ember (new movie is out in theaters-and I LOVE movies) and I have started The Secret.
Bye for now! Keep Smiling!
