Yep,That's More Like It
Whatta week! I want to tell how amazing my new job is but I almost don't know where to start! My coworkers have made me feel so welcome and have been a huge help as I learn my way around. My clients are keeping my schedule full and loving the new place too! As the week has gone by I am feeling more confident than ever that I made the right decision. This is all such a blessing!
It hasn't all been easy. Getting used to my cell phone ringing all.day .long. Then,there is the voice mails,e-mails,text,Facebook...all while I secretly pray that I don't mess up while I learn a new color line,credit machine,etc etc. Change is hard! Especially for my anxiety ridden,OCD, control freak self! Giving up never crossed my mind but small seeds of doubt grew.
And then today came. I kept my schedule light and took the afternoon off to run errands. I don't know where my second wind came from but I suddenly had the urge to cook and clean and work on all the things I have neglected at home. Spaghetti dinner,mini cheese cakes,4 loads of laundry washed dried and folded,dishes done and some much needed time attacking my house with my handy dandy spray bottle of bleach water. Then I sat down to relax while I returned a call home to my parents,balanced my ledger and taught myself how to make my very first spread sheet. (I am especially proud since accounting and organizing paperwork have never been my strong suit.) It was then that I finally found peace and balance. My house is clean,my chores are done,dinner didn't come from a store,a box or the freezer,and my business is successful and organized. Finally. This is my "ohm" moment when I take a deep breath and feel satisfied. Taken to my happy place. My little world put back on it's axis. All the newness is starting to settle in as I find my groove at work and home and learn to balance a fuller schedule and it just feels sooo right! Again,I am so blessed!
I hope that this mysterious energy that I found today sticks around for awhile. There is so much more to do....:)

Yay! That's such great news. I'm so glad you are loving the change.
ReplyDeleteI have a serious problem. I started taking scissor to my hair and I.can't.stop. It's not horrible, but it's certainly not good. Ugh. I need to just come see you!!
Come see me!I would love it if you could get away for an hour or more so I can pamper you!I am able to barter again... could I interest you in trading some of your yummy baked goods for a cut and a few highlights?
ReplyDeleteOh man! You are too sweet and too generous! My baked goods are hardly worth that : ) But yes, I would love to take advantage of your generosity. BUT...I couldn't leave well enough alone, and had Corbin take a stab at my hair. And well. It is very short now. So...I don't think there's much left for you to work with. It's really not that bad, but I am missing my beautiful hair that you did such an amazing job providing! Seriously, someone needs to throw away my crappy dull scissors! Just as soon as I have some hair to worth with, I will take you up on your offer!
ReplyDeleteI meant 'work with'...geesh!
