Once more into the breach!

Early this morning my thoughts turned to an email I had written a few weeks ago. At that time, I opined on the 30 day period of preparation for Passover before me,Now that time period has been reduced to a week. I asked myself how much and what exactly have I done over the last 3 weeks to get ready for the upcoming holiday.No excuses are necessary. I have done as much as I could or for that matter felt I needed to up to this point. Now with a week to go, I can schedule out my time and afford as much attention as I need to create the atmosphere for a wonderful yom tov.
I was glad that leading in to the holiday,my 5 ""F's" seemed under control. 
Notice I said seemed!
My day started out in a fury of activity. Our contractor was pushing to get as much done on the shop as possible today.This required my participation in picking up supplies. This would take multiple trips to Home Depot, Lowes and various other supply houses.
It was in the middle of one of these junkets that I was thrown the proverbial curve ball.
My phone rang.
 I looked at the name on it and said to myself"this should be interesting". 
I answered with a smile in my voice. The caller's tone was quite different, reserved and somber.I'll cut to the core here....in essence, the call was "you're fired!"
While it was not delivered quite that abruptly, the bottom line is that at the end of the call I was no longer employed as a weight loss coach. 
Much like when I lost my number one vendor two years ago, my immediate thoughts were not about how unfair or wrong or despicable being unceremoniously dumped was. My thoughts were clear. This is not good. And I need a Plan"B" at once.Bottom line the fifth of my 5 "F's" was now in deep do-do. My immediate challenge is to replace that income. I don't have months or weeks....I have days.
I have no time for panic, stress or depression. There is no time for wallowing in self doubt or self pity.
I spent the rest of my day, clearing my plate and tying up my week. 
In the morning, I will start taking steps to right this current situation.One of my F's is ....well F'd up!
I can not and will not let it derail the other four. In fact,I will draw upon the strength of the other four to help me through this. My Faith,Family, Friends and Fitness will guarantee that in the end, my Finances will be fine.
Of this I have no doubt!

I am sure that tomorrow will bring some new opportunity. With that in mind, I should probably get some sleep to ready myself for my next adventure.



Shabbat Shalom!
