Time Management

Today was a big day. Lots to do and little money to earn. Somehow, I seem to be losing track of time.

Quite honestly, I am enjoying my life more than I have in a long time. I am extremely grateful that all of my stars crossed and I got some time to get back on track. Evil corporate life simply wasn't for me. When I think of some of the things I was asked to do last spring, I shudder. No wonder I felt so exhausted all of the time. The whole process lead me to lots of talks with friends, neighbors and colleagues about what we each need to lead fulfilling lives. The strangest thing is, no matter what the answer, only a small percent of people really feel that they are entitled to follow their passions (or at the very least, reject the things they hate).

Things I am thankful for this week:

1. a first interview with an organisation I would really like to work for
2. a strong and healthy son, who loves to go on bike rides with me
3. spontaneous visits from fabulous women friends
4. it's asparagus season
5. ladies' night tomorrow (let's get loud!)

Now off to bed to dream about all of the wonderful things I have left to experience.  I refuse to give up hope on them - people have called me a ridiculous idealist for decades, but that hasn't stopped me yet. Trust me, I have had adventures and plan to continue.
