Good times!

It has been a great day. Very productive and plugged right along on everything. I love the busy productive days the best! Talked to a friend last night and was reminded of a truth I keep forgetting. Figure if I write it down it will be harder to remember.  It's about the piece I am missing in trusting myself and the choices I make. There are two parts of myself always present when making every decision; the part of me that wants instant gratification and the part that wants what is best for the bigger part of myself. The secret is the remember to ask the question about how LONG it will make me feel good? Either that or wait until the next day, give it some time and see if it changes. So, that is the next step. Thanks to good friends that bring me back to the present and what is really important.

We interviewed an interim manager for the non profit I am president of. Just waiting for board approval for hiring.  That will give me a little bit of breathing room, or at least present different issues to deal with. Went to hot yoga with my youngest daughter. She did so AWESOME! I was completely impressed. It was a totally different experience. Not only because she was there. The room was jam packed with people, super hot; the sweat was literally dropping off my body to the floor. The funny thing was I was able to get much further than I usually am in most of the positions. Okay, it wasn't quite like above. My teacher certainly didn't stand on my back but my head was almost touching my toes. At least it felt that way:)
Then went to the most spectacular dinner with one of my oldest friends for my birthday. Went to Cottonwood Grill and spend three hours eating a leisurely dinner. We chatted about this, that and the other thing like old friends do. It was relaxing and filling, comforting and familiar, energizing and enlightening. So wonderful! I thank God for my friends every day. They hold me up, teach me, listen to me, put up with me, help me grow, make me laugh, remind me, fulfill me, point me in the right direction,  accept me for who I am and who I want to be.
