Great weekend, had a real blast working on some things again that I haven't done in a long time. For many years I was told that I wasn't a real X, I just did Y. This weekend I proved to me that not only am I good at X, I'm darn good at it!
Being creative was such a good thing for me this weekend. It was relaxing. I mean, only doing something that I love could I sit in one very uncomfortable kitchen chair for 13 hours and barely want to stop at the end of that 13 hours. Plus, I got to work on it some today too. Not as much as I would have liked but enough. I plan to work tomorrow on it.
Big week at work. Big week in personal life. Big week in general. I took some time for myself today and took a nap and it was so refreshing. I felt so much more at peace after that and could start back in on my work.
This might sound funny but I totally want to see the new Karate Kid movie with Will Smith's kid in it. Looks great. I had planned to go to a movie yesterday but got wrapped up in stuff, then today took a nap through my window to go. Oh well. I can do it again in two weeks.
So tonight I pray for peace from God. That He will send His angels down to guard over my steps, my walk and my words. I pray for wisdom with this big week coming up. I need courage to say the truth, even if that means saying things that are hard to say, hard for some to hear and just hard. I will not be bullied anymore. I am ready to tell what I need to say, what happened to me and who did it to me. That is the scariest thing in the whole world still. That's how powerful abuse is. That person's still inside your head years after they're gone.
God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can and the wisdom to know the difference. Old matra. Same message. Still relevant.
Now I unplug. Unglue myself a little from the web. Concentrate on people I love, friends I care about and pray for my children.
