Dealing with all that life is throwing at me
This week so far has been a week of great growth for me. I realize I cope with things a lot better than I have ever before. I find that even though a lot of negative things have been thrown at me I am not dwelling on it. Instead I am remaining positive, calm, and collective as I figure things out.
To start I have been reconnecting with old friends and making new ones. I am super excited about this as I have been doing a little rearranging with the people in my life. The ones I am bringing in are super positive and have healthy goals set.
My old friend from High School, Cheryl, I met up with this past Saturday. She brought her fiancé along and he is just a darling. For once she found man that treats her like the princess she is! They came for dinner and I had the girls I am Nanny too with me. We had dinner, colored Ostara eggs and made promises when the weather breaks we would go hiking together and for picnics. We communicate almost everyday with positive things to each other. I am very much looking forward to seeing where our renewed friendship goes.
I have been getting some spring cleaning done, staying on track with working out, and getting my eating under control. I am studying Qi Gong which is really interesting and I am keeping a pen and paper journal like I used too. My personal growth is looking up so much.
On the worry side I do have some issues. We had a very hard and cold winter. I got behind on one gas bill which was outrageous. I would pay my normal gas bill each month plus anywhere from $60-$100 towards the over due one. This month due to the three snow storms we had I got a very pricey bill on top of the $120.00 I still owe from the over due bill which I planned on paying off this month if it wasn’t for the huge bill I now owe. Sadly they handed me a shut off notice despite the fact I am making a very good faith effort to pay them in a most timely manner. For once I am not panicking and plan on calling them to tell them it will be paid off in two-three months on top of my current bills. Hopefully they will be nice…if not I’m going to have to do the ole rob peter to pay pall with other bill money. Everyone has done it and I have too but I’m proud to say I’ve not done it in quite sometime. Lol
I know times right now are hard on everyone. I just cannot help but smile on how well I am handling my situation. Before I would be in tears and unable to breathe. Now I take it with a grain of salt. No need to panic or give worry to things that cannot be changed- instead do my best to what needs to be done. I am giving my best and somedays that may not be good enough. However, others that is always the way to go.
Hope everyone is well!
