Day 30 Monday, jan 30th decisions and choices

Out of an impossible, a possible has been achieved. I am in such awe I have no words. Buford team is the hardest working team I have ever known. We were at our goal with a surplus of $20.69. Not by much, but the fact that it was achieved was the reward.


A "matched" offer was made late in the day which was instantly amazingly inticing, but the terms had all of sudden changed, something has immediatedly changed the playing field. They needed me even more. Even as self-gratifying as that was, that fact made it easier to consider all the options with more caution.


I had expressed the sentiment that I would love to join but adamently cautioned that my loyalty still laid to my closest associate and they hadn't been informed. I appreciated the offer and requested patience as I prayed about the matter and it was granted without hesitation.  I called back rather with an unsettling question of the one detail that stood out like a sore thumb now. 

Hubby convinced me not to make a call to my closest associate (in rank and order) until tomorrow which was real hard to do.

Peace still accompanies me.

Day 29 Sundays are awesome and Amazon is pretty cool

Slept in until 11ish. Had a great talk with hubby about work decisions and choices. No rushing is required. I continue to feel excitement in my role and of the new challenges.

The hubby has been sick all weekend . Got stopped at the entrance of the subdivision by a young, good looking GCPD officer and fortunately didn't get a ticket for not having a seatbelt. I had the brake tail light out. Hubby changed IMMEDIATEDLY. Just so had a bulb 1357 in the GMC glove compartment.

The sun finally peaked out today. So thankful. Took the hubby to Chilis. Got my decision made about project life album and details. I also ordered my first batch online order of pictures, they were ready in 20 minutes.

Well let's get to bed so we can get Monday done...

my project life weekly folders.

The sun peeking through...

I actually read the instruction on how to use my THE CINCH machine.

Day 28 good times with family

Great times with my brothers and sisters in laws and my mom. My firstborn convincing himself and others about his new "adult life" step of getting an apartment. He' s giving up on his dream in theatre and going back to school. The latter I'm totally supportive and the previous I have my guidelines which don't coincide with the obviously more talented and all knowing 20 year old who surpasses my understanding of the field. The only sore area of our relationship.

I thoroughly believe that many of us who have the core values, entrepreneurial spirit, common sense have the elements and been gifted with the right timing which has allotted us great success by our skills and hard work. That is not mainly available to the generation that secedes us. As much as the opportunities are available today the schooling must be more evident. The titles and degrees so much more needed now than then...

Today, there alot more people looking and availible for any position and the market and climate of today is so much more pressured by settling for a job assignment than the demand.

Day 27 TGIF

I'm physically tired... still reviewing my options and aware that I received a call, that the call was made to me, not the opposite. I was not the one looking or calling. I am not desperate or failing. The calm that accompanies me is amazing. I think i understand the words of Simon Sinek, "Worrying is carrying the concern of what you don't want to happen." So true.

My closest associates remain in place. My mentor still with grace and grand skill lead the scattered multitude even at the exit stage.

@Naomi - totally gansta' style

Day 26 these greys have granted me some common sense

So I have 2 master degrees in my presence and the most important detail missing managed to be noticed by the only unstudied one present. Seriously?!

The second visit of the day was so much more gratifying.
The words made me gasp in teary eye happiness. Had he just said i want everyone to leave happy, not just some of them, but EVERYONE. Had I just walked into my dream? Is this what I have been reading about all this time? A total stranger and strangers seemed liked new best friends and I was in Utopia for the entire tour. The hour an a half conversation between old acquaintances was profound and fulfilling. An offer placed and a invitation welcomed.  I would hear the verdict next week.

Day 24 A most welcomed call from a most unexpected source

Excited to hear an voice from the past. Is this a tap on my shoulder? This is Tuesday an invitation to visit on Thursday.

Day 23 I will admit it I was kinda grouchy kinda being sarcastic

The weather pretty much dictated my mood today with rain and thunderstorms forecasted and definitely stormed threw Buford without let up.

I can pretty much take most of anything just NOT lies or people who can't just be who they are upfront. I kept thinking of the extreme pressure there is to make goal and the repercussions of not attaining it. At staff meeting when asked what we receive in achieving our goal. I straightforward responded without skipping a beat, "You maintain job security and less questioning by VP why production is low and manpower has not decreased". I toiled with that burden today.

Having less patience for the lazy or unmotivated.

Unexpected but well invited message, we will have to see pray on that one. Hmmm....
