My baby girl, Lizzie, has gone back to school....ho hum! No more Orange County Choopers, no more red-neck t.v., no more country music. Dang, I'm all alone.
Profound thoughts of late...
**Had a mini review at work (some might call it a site audit). Went okay, but I got written up for several things. My profoundness has brought me to this mind set. The things I got wrote up for, I expected to get written up for. If it was a perfect world and I had a ton of labor dollars and the ability to see into the future as to how much money we'd make, I could have gotten everything done and the store would have looked fabulous. But, it's not a perfect world, and our team has worked hard, so I'm happy, even if the store isn't perfect. Life (and work) is all about priorities. Sometimes you have to let things go so you can accomplish what's considered the better good. My boss, Mike, he's amazing...he caught all the things I let go for the better good of our guests/store. He's quick that way and I wuv him. But, now my priorities have changed and I need to get those things done that I got written up for. Could be an interesting week.
**My house....same mind set. It's not perfect. This week things were let go and the house shows it. However, Lizzie was home and she's my better good. I found it more important to spend time with her than to do what I normally would do during my day off or evenings. It's called prioritizing.
I think these are real grown-up thoughts and revelations. You know why? Cuz, well, I'm not upset. I'm not upset that I got written up. I'm not upset my house is in bad shape. Cuz, well, you know what. It's a new week. We're back to the same ole stuff and I'll accomplish what I need to this week that didn't get done last week. It's all good. And, well, you know what else. I got to spend time with my Lizzie girl and she rocks.
