Day 4 left me very tired and a little on edge when I noticed something out of place after spending all day cleaning, lol - and we won't go into the fun time I had late at night on the phone trying to get internet up and running again! But it was a good day. A very good day, in fact, and I went to bed very content, with earned weariness, and not one thought or emotion linked to being in a slump... Gotta love that! :)
What impressed me the most on reinventing/recreating myself, was the freedom I experienced; that sense of being in control. I don't need to be in control of the world, of every moment of every day, or any such thing, but having the power to do what I chose to do, in a way that suited me and my family - without ANY voices "directing" me - be them voices of the past, of insecurity, or of my gorgeous husband telling me what he would do and how. Having some control in MY life, in areas that I'm "permitted" to have control in, is far more rewarding than a tidy house could ever be, I tell ya.
Well, I won't keep you. It is Christmas Day and I'm about to dish up lunch. It's also Super Christmas Day Wife and Mum Day, which means I have to go slap everyone upside the head and get them to the dinner table (ha ha! ;) ) so I really can't stay here long - though I could sit here and whine about how much time I had to spend today getting internet up and running again!!! (NOTE TO SELF: Next year everyone gets pushbikes!!! ;) )
But before I go, I'd also like to say that I'm excited about doing something new, or being someone new/highlighting different giftings and abilities I possess every day. So much so that I'm entering the new year with the same attitude and have chosen Super Housekeeper and Super Fitness Freak as the year's major theme, w! And I am SO looking forward to it...
Ok, gotta run. I so hope you're having a mightily blessed Christmas!
All my love and major blessings to you!!!!
