What I'm Reading This Week #13
Friday is finally here! Can I get a woot woot?! (Cheers to those who actually did it.) The week felt long to start but then before we knew it...blam! Friday. We had the countertop dude out to measure and template Tuesday. The lady who made the appointment said it would be 2-3 weeks after so I'm hoping for sooner than later so I can FINALLY reveal the bathroom to you guys! Kind of stinks though because we were told they would take the sink/faucet with them and that was a big fat no. We were looking forward to getting that big azz box out of the house.

My Dad made it clear to me while he was in his last months that a lesson he learned was to live life the way I wanted and not let everyone else run it. I like to think I have heeded that to some extent. Obviously it's not easy doing that when you have to answer to a boss, co-workers, etc but I know that I am a more authentic version of myself than I was before and it helps to think about that from time to time.
ReplyDeleteI have a loved one give me this bit of wisdom that has stuck with me (although I admit to being a poor example at it more times than not, but it's been resonating a lot lately):
ReplyDelete"When you complain, you make yourself into a victim. When you speak out, you are in your power. So change the situation by taking action or by speaking out if necessary or possible; leave the situation or accept it. All else is madness."
Then they said something funny that I also had to write down:
Relationships with negative people are simply tedious encounters with porcupines. Truth!
