Things are looking up! I went back to review my unit 3 blog post and realized that all of my scores are improved. Well mostly, my spiritual points stayed at a 9 while everything else rose to 9 as well. I have been back on my fasting program for several weeks. I have more energy, my pants are a bit looser, and I have been getting compliments from random people. We have moved past the death of my husband's grandmother, summer is in full swing and business is on a wonderful upswing in our shop. My psyche is soothed and I am happier now then I have been in a long time. My children are annoying little heathens but... I love them dearly and it has been easier to focus some of my time and energy on them recently. Partly because I have them at work with me all the time and partly because I am consciously trying to be present and engaged.
I have made improvements in many aspects over the last ten weeks. I think the combination of this class and the warmer weather has improved my mood and outlook. Then on top of all of that, I have just been feeling amazing. I've made new friends, I've meet a bunch of musically inclined people who have renewed my love of music and singing. It has been very rewarding to stand up in front of a microphone and sing to a crowded room. I have slowly been able to get over my fear of rejection and enjoy performing again. Not only that but my intimate life has improved immensely! Even though I haven't done as well with keeping up on my assignments, I still feel like I accomplished something by getting to the end of the course!
As my husband says, "If momma's happy, everyone's happy!"
That's awesome that you are doing so well! It sounds like you have a lot of great things going in your life right now :) And don't worry, school is important but we can't always pause real life to get assignments done on time! I've struggled with that this session too. I agree that finishing the course is a HUGE accomplishment that we should be proud of :) So go celebrate and enjoy all the those awesome things you have going for you right now!
