  • Making room

    So, yeah... All I gotta say: ROCK CHALK JAYHAWK!! It was a nail biter throughout, even though I was about to disown them halfway through the 2nd half. They had almost a 20 point deficit and were playing like crap! (Almost as bad as their football team...) Then they just got a confidence boost and a game was born! lol

    I did a bad thing today; I stepped on a scale. Let's just say that I really need to work on that... I'm going to need to be a little more conscious of what I'm eating. *sigh* I've never really worried much about my weight, especially growing up. I've always had a fast metabolism so I've always eaten whatever I wanted. And I've always been super active. I've noticed over the last couple of years that if I can stay in between 120-125, my back doesn't protest too much. Back in September, I had gotten down to the weight I was when I arrived at my first duty station. Since about October, I just haven't really cared. Today snapped me back to reality... I just need to lose about 15 pounds. That's easy. And as long as the weather is nice, I believe I will try to start walking in the afternoons. Just little adjustments, nothing big.

    Today was the end of week one in my book. :) The topic was making room, literally and figuratively, for your one. The author (Ms. Katherine) relayed a story that happened a few years ago. She spoke with a gentleman who had just gotten engaged. She asked him a little bit about the work he did to prepare for his one. The guy said he cleaned out his closet and dresser draws and made room in preparation. He also gave up his list of "the one" and was pleasantly surprised at the gift he received when he did. So, today's meditation and focus was about how to prepare not only you, but your physical space to be able to accept what is to come. Very interesting really...

    Tomorrow I start in on week 2 of my book. It deals with Completions, so this coming week could be rather interesting...

    Well, guess that's all for today... I'll let you get back to the more important things in life!

    Until next time... CIAO!
