I am not the most creative one when it comes to post titles so I decided to just go with what I feel and that is …. unsettled for now.
I’m not even sure why.
** Work is okay (new guy/junior broker) has made my life immeasurably easier because he does the crap that I hate to do. Props to him. He’s nice but … stiff. Things are so busy there anymore that I feel like I’m running in five directions at once. I often tell Duty these days that I do not want to do this work much longer. It brings me a paycheck but not much joy and a lot of what I don’t like: people pulling me in all directions. Change will come, I’m sure, one way or ‘ta other.
** Stalled at 16 pounds down and working my way back to the food plan. Despite running a wee bit amok now and again, I’m hanging in there. Want to lose another 10 by January 1. Best get on the stick with all that.
** PI had a great November and overshot our target by $500! Excellent. I am setting some hardcore goals for the first quarter of 2012 and doing my manifesting work diligently so I can easily build up some cushion in the bank and be ready when the door opens again. I had the best client interaction last week and when I got off the phone, I just about flew around the room with happiness. *THIS* is the work I love.
** And best of all, speaking of Practically Intuitive, my office is just about done! Stupid paneling is GONE!! Flooring is down, walls are painted, lights are hung – it looks lovely and it’s not even furnished yet! I’m tickled to pieces that it finally came about. I can’t wait to start doing my sessions from the peacefulness of that room.
So, I don’t really have much reason to feel unsettled. And I know the mood will pass. But for now, the word is: unsettled.
I agree with “Gal Herself.” What a huge accomplishment those 16 pounds are — and I’m positively thrilled to hear about the near completion of your office.
What do you feel about Christmas? Could that have anything to do with your mood? I know that for me, even as a convert to Judaism, it has often been important to me NOT to dismiss Christmas and Yeshua. There is “something” about it all, symbolically.
It’s hard when everything is going well, except your spirit. Maybe your metabolism is playing games with you as you experiment with life on this food plan. Just please, celebrate the 16 lbs and don’t beat yourself up over the final 10. Losing 16 lbs. is important to health, and fretting too much about the last 10 could cause you to undervalue that.
Could it be hormones? I was a hormone hostage for a while and it was scary.
The malaise aside (though I’m not remotely minimizing it), there’s a lot of good stuff in this post and I hope that, as Mr. Rogers used to sing, you’re as proud as I am proud of you!
