Thoughtful Thursday

I have a friend that I am so proud of today. She made a decision to change her life and leaped. I mean leaped!

She has moved out of her old ‘comfort’ zone and into what will eventually become truly comfortable. Overwhelmed is an understatement for her.

Not only has she moved out of an abusive situation, she has also started a new job. A new apartment, new job, new life. Amazing and such and inspiration. Keep your chin up B! Once the dust clears you will see that you have afforded yourself an opportunity to live your life to its fullest.

Happy Thanksgiving!

I have spent the day being grateful for my new life. It is the first Thanksgiving that I haven’t spent in the Mid-South with my family.

And, because I am totally alone right now (G is working out of town) I have spent the day taking care of some things that will only enhance my life here. I took apart the coffee table, cleaned it up, glued it all back where it was coming apart and now waiting on the legs to dry (re-glued them into place) so I can finish assembling it. A rocking and rolling coffee table just isn’t my thing.

I have also taken apart the vacuum cleaner and got it back into ‘new’ working condition. Strange how a little maintenance can go a long way! I can’t replace these things because this is a furnished apartment so fixing what is here makes it home.

I have also spent a good part of the day burning my movies onto disks. That seems to be the most time consuming thing I’ve done all day. Thank goodness I just set it up and the computer takes care of the rest. I’ve burnt a total of 4 disks – all day long. Yep, takes a minute…

Now that I kind-of sort-of have an internet connection I plan to farm a little, check my email and spend the rest of the day reading my new book.

Have a great day everyone!
