Back to the grind today & up to work. I do the bookkeeping for 3 small businesses -- my BIL's mulch business and 2 self storage businesses that DH & I are partners in. The mulch business (where I'm headed today) is busiest in the spring, still somewhat through the summer, but mostly quiet in the fall & winter. So, it's time to gear up again for the busy season. This is the BIL who is the recovering addict, but he seems to be doing well & working his recovery program. He's trying to sell the business, and has a prospective buyer in the process if it all goes through. I don't know who will be happier if it sells -- him or me!
On another note, I thought I'd attach a link that my therapist shared (although yesterday's appt was canceled as she had a patient emergency) called "The Power of Introverts" -- http://www.ted.com/talks/susan_cain_the_power_of_introverts. I really enjoyed the talk, and it confirmed as I've been realizing about myself that most people are neither entirely introvert nor extrovert and lie somewhere between with qualities of each. I'm finding more & more than while I want & need time alone, too much can be just as unpleasant as too little. So, once again, finding that happy medium is the key.
But before I'm off to another HIIT workout this morning and then to work this afternoon, 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, for this one day and through each one meal, moment, bite, thought & emotion, I'll pray, breathe, log, journal & express my way. I'm so grateful for each of caring you, my family & IRL friends, hopefully what is the last burst of winter with warming temps again after, and having the health & wealth to live this life I love including the routine of the everyday! xoxox
