Blessings!

It is hard to see the amazing parts of our lives sometimes if life has been kinda heavy.....and it is my strategy to combat it all! To look toward the sun.....I have written about it many times....and September has been pretty intense......but as October breaks open there is some sun a shinin:) My book chapter has found its way to the world, and my shipment of books should be here soon to sell and distribute! My kitchen begins next weekend.....I am spending this weekend packing up my kitchen, and making a make shift space in my dining room to be able to make some dinner and lunches for us......hatching plans to have us survive the renovation, but much more focused on the day I can FINALLY stand in my finished kitchen:) SO what a blessing all of that is:) I have a little getaway at the end of this next week with a special person in my life, and am so excited for it......and really when I look around my entire life......even amid the BIG challenges, that are touching down at the moment, there are SO many blessings.....there have always been those blessings as I have traveled through the challenges I have faced......there would be people that would look at my life, and perhaps feel sorry because of all I have had to face......but really the blessings have been equal to the trials, if not exceeded them......I look around at this big and beautiful house that I live in, .....and feel so grateful that I GET TO live here....alone.....and have been blessed with the way in my life to maintain it on my own, and pay for it all......my kids love it here....and it makes me happy I can do so......and some people think worry means care.....like if you worry it means you care more......and if you choose not to worry you don't care......and worry has nothing do to with caring.....it is a waste in every way......when you decide to make the moves you need to.....putting your effort in...listening to your intuition........and then lean in, and trust the process, and the journey, that is where magic happens......and things always work out......that is where faith comes in......and I have a ton of that now......so this morning finds me catching my breath from an intense week last week in every way.....a super emotional one......and I am hoping as October breaks the intensity subsides some.....I have lots to do this weekend and I am here for it! Happy Saturday:)
