Tidying Up

I feel restful minded and accomplished today. I tidied up my house, my finances--still in progress, and my brain! I'm even able to sit down and read a book given to me by a client--she wrote it and signed it herself : ). It's called Myth, Magic and Metaphor. She taught a class on creative process and her students enjoyed it so much that they told her to write a book on it. I also have another client who was once nominated for an Academy award for technical achievement. I learned on his last visit that he used to work for CBS, photographing celebrities. We ran out of time, can't wait to hear those stories next time! They say you can have many soul mates in a lifetime. Not just romantic. I have So many special people that have popped into my life--especially within the past year. I have one in particular..he is a customer and we just started gabbing right away, I felt like we had talked a million times before! You know what else? I am enjoying all different ages of people in my friendships lately! I'm getting so much from others much younger and older than me. I also have 2 friends who are silly--1 silly + 1 silly= 2 crazy silly girls! Lol, oh boy. Today I am trying to enjoy life's little pleasures. It's important to keep these things around. Some of mine are..Pandora internet radio, fresh flowers, yummy treats from Harry and David. Tea with honey, cinnamon and ginger. I'm a lavish kind of girly- girl. I have lots of candles in my bedroom, I light them every night. A clean house definitely lifts your spirits! Exercise! It helps not to consider it too much..just jump up and do some situps, step aerobics with a chair, jump rope, an hour walk. The best part is afterwards when you get to relax and feel good that you got that out of the way! Drink lots of water. Yonka skincare products--they are botanical, aromatic and actually do beneficial things! However, a lot of the time my house is messy, too busy and not regimented enough! I'm trying to learn these few things: Resolving conflict effectively, not being too 'stressy' and taking responsibility for how things affect me. Like a bad relationship. I don't need to seek an apology from someone, I need to apologize to myself for doing something stupid to me! By allowing certain things to happen, of course. Then move on. I get these ideas from listening to audio seminars with people like Claire Zammit, Debbie and Arielle Ford, Catherine Woodward-Thomas. I also like meditation music which I listen to on Pandora. Deuter, Liquid Mind, etc. I need to remember to read the Bible some in the morning--that wouldn't hurt! So guess what? Tomorrow or so I will probably be untidy again and by next week I can begin where I left off..
