and carry on


More and more amazing changes keep coming and coming...aside from one biggie, which I am not at liberty to divulge just yet, is that work is improving and they need me more. This makes me really excited because I really am hoping to become a permanent fixture where I am. Now, work at the office has been inconsistently chaotic; There is a slight calm before the storm...and then the multifaceted and all important storm hits, all aspects demanding need your undivided attention: random meetings, mia e-mails, last minute documents, updates on websites, party planning, meeting agendas... The only consistency is that the calms are smaller and fewer between and the storms are ever more and more powerful. The key is to be a duck. Yup, a duck. Remain poised and calm on the exterior, but underneath the surface viciously treading and do whatever it takes to get ahead. Even in the most tear-jerking scenarios I force a smile and center myself. Never let anyone see how hard you are treading below the surface. It's important to keep centered; it helps to slow down and enjoy little things that really bring joy to my day, such as sipping hot tea, turning up the volume on the Bridgette Bardot station, reading a poem or a short story, doodling or sketching, watching Sophia Coppola's Miss Dior Cherie advertisement (always brings a smile to my face and great memories), looking outside, venture out for a walk...
