I am hosting a little shin dig tonight. Cocktails, appetizers and home shopping! I love hosting stuff (get to use all my fancy wedding things) and spending time with friends. I have an assorted group of friends and most of them would never hang out together so events like this let me mingle with everyone! It's also a saving grace because with busy season I have a lot of alone time. I'm looking forward to busying myself with preparations today and having a good time tonight.
Still waiting to finish up training at the radio station. I don't know yet what my schedule is going to look like. I have already cut back at Houlihans and am anxious to jump on it but the OM is super busy and probably overwhelmed so there's been a lot of emailing back and forth. Part of me is definitely still weary of starting something new. I don't know why I sell myself short. I love radio, miss it terribly, and have this opportunity to really enjoy something in my life and yet I am hesitant. I need to be slapped. Dan gets frustrated and is a real coach in waking me up. I guess your own brain is really your worst enemy. I have this little voice in the back of my mind whispering that starting something new is giving up everything we have been working so hard on. The truth is that it's just around the corner! If I put all the pieces together I can see that we have this month left of testing (endometrial biopsy anyone?) and hopefully next month we will have an action plan and move forward. Sometimes I just need to shut up and listen to myself...if that makes sense.
Five things I am grateful for today:
A warm house when it's -11 outside
Friends who I can invite to my soiree
A husband who loves, encourages and challenges me
Beer bread (it's in the oven and it's lovely)
A sister who is willing to be enslaved to help me prepare for a party that isn't hers
Turning away from the world and toward your own happiness is the path of authenticity. ~ Sarah Ban Breathnach
