New Month,New Opportunity

 “Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't be trapped by dogma - which is living with the results of other people's thinking. Don't let the noise of other's opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.”
~ Steve Jobs
As I sit here at my desk, I can't help but notice that my blotter calendar still thinks it's October.
In the past, I could blame that on the hectic schedule I once had at the end of the Halloween season.For over 15 years,the period from the last week of October through the first week of November seemed like one singular 346 hour day,often with less than 20-30 total hours of sleep.
Thankfully, that is no longer the case and therefore cannot be my excuse for having been as busy or distracted as I have been since the wedding.
Honestly, I can't really pinpoint what has occupied my time.
It just seems to have vanished daily along with my energy.
Today was the first day where I found that break in the action that I so desperately needed.
Not that the day didn't come with its share of crazy.
However,by 4:45 this evening, I saw that there was some light at the end of the tunnel and a chance to cash in on that.
I dropped my last passenger,headed to the grooming shop , picked up Dolly and was home by 5:30.
After prepping dinner, I sat down at my desk, cleaned up emails and set out an agenda for after we had eaten.An agenda which included a) writing to you and b) changing the calendar to November!
This minor yet significant break in the action has given me the opportunity to catch up on a slew of things that were cluttering up my desk and emails as well as the opportunity to make tomorrow the first day of the rest of the month!
