The Ice Storm Cometh

Well, happy New Year and all that jazz. What is in store for us is beyond our imaginings, I don't know what the future will bring.. but for now it's spread sheets (new job reference). Which I have to do about 8 hours of work on this weekend. Fun stuff. I'm trapped in this evening as the weather outside is frightful. It looks like a giant slushie machine exploded.
I've started off the new year running hard. Starting a new part time job where I have creative freedom, go me... and then Working full time at a job that scares me every time I go in. Will I be able to get through this day painless? Usually not. With the amount of massages they load on my book? Ha. Everyday I ache. Sometimes I wake up with it now. My body begs to stop and my only response is to shake my head. We can't quit now. Part time is just ahead. It is a scary thing to have your body fail you.
I sleep with wrist braces on. At first they were annoying and unwieldy. Now they are a comfort. When I slip them on and adjust the straps I feel safe.
I am more of a hermit these days. I wonder what it is like for other people who live in the constant presence of another. I gave myself a reading with these new tarot-like cards I got. The chief scientist's dad (yes, my new company Tech Mavericks have a "Chief Scientist") designed them and so I got to play with them. I'm not going to give them back. At first they seem a little difficult and daunting to grasp, but reading over the instructions a couple of times made the cards really easy to interpret. Their message was simple: make space. Huh. I never think about doing that, so I'll try it.
I would call the Pizza Man and have him brave the icy storms but I have stuff to make a lovely dinner. I just have to find the motivation from under some pile in this house.
Oh, yeah. I'm going to paint the backroom. Perhaps I'll start tonight if I can just find that ellusive motivation... I know I had it here somewhere...
I haven't posted a lot lately because this blog spot is changing to a different server and it has proven to be difficult to get in. Tonight, however, I succeeded.
Well wishes and much love,
K
