Appreciations 4.91

Today was a day filled with good things to appreciate.

First of all I woke up after a night of much, much more better sleep than I’d been having lately. Still a little short on the hours, but SO much more better quality. Hooray!

Next I had a really satisfying, fun, fascinating meeting with the ever-squooshable John Linn. I have the best job! Srsly.

Then, after getting some of my own work done, I got to meet with a sweet 13-year old girl beginning jewelry designer who “shopped” at my bead “store.” It was so much fun to watch her exclaim over the beads I so lovingly selected during my years as a designer, and watching her pick out her favorites. She was so excited to be able to pick out real crystals and pearls. πŸ˜€ Her mom was super sweet, too, and it was such a lovely, wonderful way to send some of my beads on their way!

This evening I caught up on planning things with friends, and now I get to look forward to coffee shop meetings, a trip to MIA, and other future fun stuff. Pretty awesome day. ❀

Year 1, Day 107: email cleansing, current jobs, old job

I appreciate:

  1. How awesome if feels to have helped someone overwhelmed by emails to go from 9,000+ emails in the inbox (about 5,000+ unread) to 0! And to have helped them come up with a system that works to keep the inbox clear. Even more exciting than figuring it out for myself. πŸ™‚
  2. My jobs. I have the best jobs! I’m having so much fun with my web consulting work — and am very excited to start offering laughter yoga and positive psychology workshops very soon!!
  3. Hahaha – even my “old” job is fun — I’ll be at B2B/AHC Holiday Event selling my jewelry this Thursday, Dec 6 from 4-8. It’s going to be a really fun event! Stop by if you can! β™₯

Year 1, Day 98: home working, gratitudes, daughter

I appreciate:

  1. Having a job that allows me to work from home in my jammies!
  2. The exquisite gratitude postings by my friends. It brightens my day so much to hear about the good things in your lives!
  3. That I still miss my daughter every time she goes back to school. I’m so lucky to have kids I adore so much. β™₯

Year 1, Day 51: deconstruction drinks, complexity, simplicity

I appreciate:

  1. Deconstructing Deconstruction over drinks with my classmates from HUGE 401 last night!
  2. The, um, excitement of last year’s Skynote work (3 different accounting systems, 4 bank accounts at 2 banks, 4 assistants, ~20 clients).
  3. The simplicity of Skynote Consulting now! (1 system, 2 accts at 1 bank, 1 (completely awesome) employee, ~20 clients). Whew!

Year 1, Day 16: Seriously Happy, sunshine, TCWN

I appreciate:

  1. My new business, Seriously Happy. Every time I read an article, work on the website or create new materials for it, I get soooooo happy! (the alternate name for the company, haha!) πŸ˜›
  2. Beautiful, sunny weather and the best neighborhood for walking around in it.
  3. Twin Cities Wellness Network meeting this morning….so many like-minded people supporting each other. Love it!
