1. I am fortunate enough to have several ex-boyfriends/lovers as good friends.
2. Personal inventory processing continues. Good stuff coming up. This weekend will be focused on framework and prioritization of fundamentals and goals.
3. Motherhood = leadership.
It's not only equal to leadership, but a lot of the principles of leadership apply, especially that of leading by example.
4. I use approximately 20% of my brain at work and still garner lots and lots of praise. This scares me.
5. I need to make social plans with friends at least twice a month. It's scary that I've been doing so much less for so long.
6. I have a couple of essays/reflections to type up and share.
7. I love LOL's. They keep me sane at work. (See #4 above.) I know I just posted one yesterday, but that was mostly for someone else. This one is for me, in fond memory of Steve Irwin:
8. Learning from my own mistakes is good. Learnig from the mistakes of others is even better. In the latest case, it prevented me from striking out in pain at someone else. Instead of assuming that the silence was all about me, and a rejection of me, I asked what was going on his the other person's life that interrupted our conversation. Guess what? It had nothing to do with me.
9. Lots of intense, meaningful dreams in the last few days, death and bears featuring most significantly.
