I Get it Now-Thursdays are for Love
Okay, so I think that I'm finally cathing on to this Thursday list thing. I really want to get on board with the theme posts but alas my digi camera has gone to the land of the lost. But this theme I can do camera-free. So here goes

-Wednesday night-Arriving early enough to hug and kiss the kiddies. Nin's french onion soup. So delicious and warm and filling. Just like her home. A lovely conversation with my old dear friend that just goes to show that life is not always going perfectly but that we can embrace it and let it take us somewhere that we need to be. It is okay to feel off. It is okay to question and doubt. That is the ying to Love's yang. All that matters is having a friend to hold you still when the waters are rushing in. I'm honored to be those arms.

-Feeling inspired by work for the first time in months. i finally feel like this is where I need to be for now. Not forever. But that's okay. life has brought me here and i have to stop fighting it and just see where it takes me. it feels great to be at peace with that after months of turmoil.

-My CD's that Shauna has made for me. One "old school" with songs that each remind me of a different place and time in our 21 year friendship. What a great ride it's been too. So many laughs. every new track makes me smile with a great memory. And the second CD of just plain old good tunes. Nothing makes me happy like a good mix CD...well, except for good food....

- My upcoming travels. I am usually such a homebody. Traveling is jsust not really for me. I'm very content in my town having a sweet lazy life with the people that I Love. Unfortunately a large amount of said people live far from me. So next week I am off to LA to visit the Murphys (still weird to write) and then I am back for 2 days and then off to NYC to visit the girls in our old stomping ground. I am so excited for these adventures. And then it will be holiday time which I absolutey adore. I think a little time away from home will do me some major good.

-My new therapist. i was so afraid to take that step and actually make the appointment. But I Love it! It is just what I needed to clear my head. Every time I get overwhelmed or feel anxious I just think-don't worry-you can talk about it later with Linda. And I put it to bed. Why did I wait so long? Lesson learned. Everyone should go. So liberating.

Happy thursday everyone. I hope it finds you all happy, healthy and smiling.
