Gratituesday 4.17.18 - No Time to Spare

The past few days have been full of back to back appointments and commitments. So there's no time to spare and I have to be efficient with my time. I "just" enough time to write and post Weekly Lists. No time to mull over them as I sometimes do especially since I had to start again because I accidentally closed the Edit Post window in WordPress before saving the draft! Hello resilience!

Without further ado, Welcome to Gratituesday and my weekly lists!

GRATITUDES

1. hot coffee

2. networking opportunities

3. a savings account that I needed to tap to pay my taxes. sigh.

4. living in an amazing city - certainly frustrating at times, but it's all about perspective!

5. my longtime friendship with Christine Samson. While she was in town visiting I splurged and treated myself in ways I normally don't.

CELEBRATIONS

1. a board interview for an apartment. Fingers crossed, ya'll!

2. continuing to know my value and having others recognize it and communicate it with me. This is hugely rewarding.

3. the amazing journey I'm on. I know big picture stuff. But I went to an Emory alumni event and there was lots of nostalgia. I think my path is pretty extraordinary.

4. Two days this past week to remind us what Spring actually feels like.

5. Resilience. A hold over from last week, but it continues to be present and needs to be celebrated-especially as someone who does not like change!

DESIRES (all old shit!)

1. a clean kitchen sink. I actually have clean-up on my schedule for Thursday as this has gotten out of hand!

2. better sleep, especially since Maxie continues to wake me up a few times a night.

3. at least one more counseling couple confirmed for my group workshop at the end of the month

4. a massage to remove the knots in my shoulders

5. to plan at least 1 trip this year

That's it, folks! Easy peasy. I will certainly engage with my to-do list this week since I am tired of the repeat of most of the Desires from week to week. Want to hold me accountable? I promise to reciprocate. Here's to getting things done and celebrating the little things. More importantly, to a fulfilling week ahead!
