My mother jokes that she always knows if I am upset or burdened because I rearrange and clean my entire bedroom, from the farthest corner of the walk-in to the ceiling fan. I know it may sound silly...but cleaning always makes me feel better. In a way it's a catharsis-like act for my heart as well as my surroundings. I refocus on a simple and tangible task, allowing my heart to take a vacation from whatever the burden may be. It's uplifting to refocus my energy and witness the improvement... Cinderella was definitely onto something... ;)

This is so my daughter! Vous êtes adorables!!!

Beantown bound!

I am uber-excited to visit Boston this Saturday! Months and months ago ventures to Boston were the norm for a Friday night/Saturday morning. Sunny days in the Garden, shop the Pru & Copley, see the performers at Fanuiel and explore Newbury until dusk... and then some. Hopefully this weekend the weather will comply so our adventures aren't anchored by lugging heavy coats, hats and gloves.
Whatever the weather I know it will be fantastic! Reunions are only in order and I am so blessed to have an amazing sister who is sharing her Muse tickets with me. After...donating some more to the Muse fund I was able to find 2 more tickets so the group is growing... Oh I don't know how I am getting there, where, and when...but I do know that my excitement is growing as the plans unfold.
xxoo

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...
