Party tonight, but the stress or PPS (pre-party syndrome), as my DH calls it, hasn't hit yet… probably because he's not around yet! DH's sister is staying at our lake cottage, so he went there after work last night to be sure it's ready for visitors, but will be home soon & the party prep and stress will begin, I'm sure. I'm in pretty good shape and the weather is absolutely gorgeous, which is such a relief as its an outdoor/pool party. We're expecting about 65, but this non-cooking gal has a caterer all arranged. It's a pizza truck that we've used before. They do delicious new england style, thin crust pizza with traditional & unique toppings (seafood, twice baked potato, peanut butter, etc), plus salad, gelato and cappuccino. All I'm doing is some appetizers, drinks and a cake. It should be loads of fun!
Then, tomorrow, my boy leaves with DH to drive to SC where he starts work on Mon. I fly down next Fri to help him move into his new apartment.
But one day at a time, so before I get on to my workout & to pick up party platters and the cake, I'll pray --
God grant me the serenity
to accept the things I cannot change;
courage to change the things I can;
and wisdom to know the difference.
Living one day at a time;
Enjoying one moment at a time;
Accepting hardships as the pathway to peace;
Taking, as He did, this sinful world
as it is, not as I would have it;
Trusting that He will make all things right
if I surrender to His Will;
That I may be reasonably happy in this life
and supremely happy with Him
Forever in the next.
Amen.
And through this one party of a day, and each one meal, moment, bite, thought & emotion, I'll pray, breathe, journal & express my way. I'm so grateful for each of amazing you, my family & IRL friends, beautiful weather, the calm before the storm but with the tools to deal with it all, and having the health & wealth to live this life I love! xoxox
