Oh desires, how I love you. There are so many things that would never have happened in my life had I not sat down and expressed my desires for them. I think we just get so busy that we just forget that we have a say in how our life turns out sometimes. Well, thanks to the support of my team at work, I took today off to help rest my voice as laryngitis has been showing up all week. I didn't listen to the universe and take time off because I felt okay beyond my throat and the headache it gave me to talk...okay, I took a few hours off and came back the next day for some more. Seriously, is teaching a job that allows me to be silent for a whole day? No so much. So here I am, blessed by a day of silence and time to connect with myself again. I have chosen to actually rest, mostly, rather than run around and do the Christmas shopping that beckons to me.
My Desires...
to feel full energy for tonight's Baby It's Cold in Wonderland event with Carol and D
to not have to talk until I pick the kids up from daycare
to go snowshoeing at Cypress multiple times this winter
for someone to clean our house bottom to top while we are out, and I mean, all dust and cobwebs and food splatter stuck to the wall and toothpaste spray all gone, like they were never there, floors and windows sparkly clean
my Fluevogs back in my shoe cupboard
adventures, so many adventures as often as possible, balanced with quiet time to let the amazingness all soak in
healthy, eczema-free sons
to enjoy cooking
to really enjoy the 2 weeks holiday and feel present with my boys and Marc, have fun with them every day
dogsledding at Whistler
snowboarding 8 times this season
go to the gym once or twice a week with ease and spaciousness
to have Christmas presents wrapped under the tree and left in peace by kids
trip to NYC this year-girls trip (over Spring Break?)
to go back to monthly savings plan
to work 4 days per week
a new laminate floor in my office with a white small area rug
horseback riding
a pretty new snowboard
a pretty gym bag
new running shoes and shorts
