I chatted with another single mom friend this weekend......and we talked some about the challenge in keeping it all afloat on one income, but also both of us marveling about the fact that it always all works out......and we find our way to the things that need to have happen......and trust that.......so right now I feel like money is flying out quickly in every direction, and I am trying to just breathe through it, and know that more than anything I am abundant, truly!:) I have an abundance of what I need, and I need not focus on any lack in my life, because there isn't any.....I am putting myself on the fast I did awhile back.....I am not sure if I saw a huge difference but I think shifting my mind about it all helped......so for November and December I am pulling back on extraneous money.....no TJMaxx, or takeout on the run....even without our kitchen being torn up, which hopefully won't be for super long! We will make it work......I have a lot of expenses for a person doing life alone....and I am wildly grateful to have the means, and having had the means, to meet them at every turn......and I will continue to trust that.....the kitchen is underway and I am tempering my fear of pulling it off, with KNOWING that it will all work out.....I have gotten this far:)......and I have lived long enough to trust that the details ahead are already ironed out......laid out beautifully:) I plan on throwing a Christmas soiree to celebrate the new kitchen and that feels amazing to think of.......Gabe has senior night for football tomorrow night and oh my heart.......wow.....and he has a church lock in this weekend.....and Mads and I are going to do something fun together.....some fall fun methinks:) I have been increasing my workout this week, and feeling the impact of that and that feels good.....Mads has been doing workouts at school, and she told everybody her mom motivates her to do it every day.....some of the other kids are choosing not to sometimes....but she does it every day....and she told me she is inspired by my working out every day, and that motivates me more than she will ever know:).....she is watching......our kids are watching......and I want her to see me doing good things....and working as hard as I can......our skylight went in and we LOVE IT!!:):) Seeing the beautiful sky while we stand there is amazing:) Lots of amazing things working out:) So mindfulness is touching down into my abundance.....making me conscious of the places where my resources need to flow.....and as my single mom friend and I chatted we also marveled at the fact that financial stuff has never been so challenged, in terms of one income, but that both of us are doing more in our lives, than we ever have:) Funny how that works! Have a great Thursday:)
